[QUOTE="Owlsroost, post: 1101597, member: 83973"] Assuming we have found the correct problem, the real cause is that the PC is playing the live TV stream slightly faster than the broadcaster is sending it, so after a while MP runs out of data and has to pause playback to allow the broadcast stream to 'catch up'. Digital TV sets, set top boxes etc. adjust their local playback clock to match the stream (so they don't have this problem) but PC's can't do this. Some time ago I did a lot of work to allow MPAR to be used by TsReader to adjust the playback speed (to work around the problem), but I stopped development eventually because MPAR still had some random A/V sync issues, so I had to give up using it for live TV (on my HTPC). I've experimented with a few other ideas to workaround the problem, but nothing has really worked properly/reliably. [/QUOTE]
