[QUOTE="skr-home, post: 58313, member: 19195"] Hi, some days ago I got my FloppyDTV-S (DVB-S) card and now I am testing a lot. At first a was only able to find a few channels with Autotune. Some hours later I checked the whole config and unselected "enable hardware pid filtering". After that the first problem was solved and I was able to find all the channels. Then the main and persistent problem occured. When switching between channels (zapping) I get a black screen and also audio is off. This only occurs when switching between some special channels (german Pro7 and Kabel1 etc.). In some other topics I have read that there is a difference regarding the audio stream, which is the reason for the black screen. I already tried other codecs etc. without success. Additionally video and audio gets shortly stuttering about 2 seconds after a channel is displayed. On my AV receiver (via spdif) I can see that audio mode get switched at this moment. Switching between channels also takes more time in MP then in MyTheatre, which was delivered with the dvb-s card. In MP it takes about 2-3 seconds to switch (depending on codecs). In MT it is only one seconds. I just tried the current subversion build mediaportal-svn-06-11-2006--15-11 on RC4 and all my problems are still persistent. In the current build I saw in the setup that under "decoder filters" it is no more possible to change the settings for the codecs I use. Why this? Ok, for me all the behavior is still the same. But what if I want to change something? Video Codec: Mpeg2Dec Audio Codec: MPEG/AC3/DTS/LPCM At all I am not really satisfied with the current situation watching tv in MP. All the other things I do in MP and watching tv should become one of it. I hope so much that someone can help me with that. Thanks a lot. Sebastian [/QUOTE]
