When I shift to a specific channel after been watching TV for a while, the channel shift takes about 15 sec. and after that the TV shows whatever I was watching a couple of minutes back - but not the chosen channel. If I close the stream and select the channel again the same amount of time passes but now the correct channels is shown. Sometimes the first scenaria is followed by an error from MediaPortal telling that MediaPortal has stopped working, but it actually works (kind of).

The problem is reproduceable. The channel is in HD and is scrambled (Danish TV6 HD). I can watch other scrambled channels without problems. If the channel is selected initially then it is shown OK - but the same amount of time passes.

I have tried playing with all the codecs without any change. Ended up by a fresh install of Windows 7 sp1 and MediaPortal - no change.

Hope to find an answer here. Thanks in advance.

Hi Bjørn

Thanks for the logs - makes my job easy.
The issue is on the TV Server side. That channel (6rn HD) seems to have two tuning details. The first one (frequency = 330000 kHz) does not work; the second one (frequency = 618000 kHz) does work. To fix the problem:
1. Go to the TV Channels section in TV Server configuration.
2. Find the "6rn HD" channel.
3. Click "edit".
4. Select the top row in the list (there should be two rows).
5. Click "edit".
6. Check the frequency.
7. Click "OK".
8. If the frequency was 330000 then delete the top row (select then click "remove"), else delete the bottom row.
