[QUOTE="skr-home, post: 58613, member: 19195"] Yesterday evening I got the black screen problem solved! At first I tried to set the AC3 Pid to -1 without success. I also tried 0 and multiple combinations. At all I couldn't find any relationship between the settings and results. Then I discovered that the screen only get black when I switch between channels within one "TV Channel Group" (maybe transponder?). After that if I switch into a different "TV Channel Group" the picture and sound get back again. After a while I enabled "Hardware Pid Filtering" again and since then switching between channels in one channel group works fine for me. Also the zapping speed improved a lot. Maybe it is even faster then in MyTheatre. As a summary... It is necessary to have "Hardware Pid Filtering" in the card settings disabled to find all channels with autotune. But for watching it has to be enabled to switch between channels in one tv channel group and to improve zapping speed. Maybe this should be verified by the developers and placed somewhere in the documentation or a trouble shooting guide. So almost everything works great now except this.... --- 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. --- I already tried different codecs and also change its settings to normal stereo speaker to ensure that it does not directly communicate with the spdif. The stuttering does always occur. Does anyone know how this can be solved or what I can test further? [USER=11199]mPod[/USER]: Were you able to reproduce that the codecs "Mpeg2Dec" and "MPEG/AC3/DTS/LPCM" disappeared in "decoder filters" settings using the new svn build?` Thanks Sebastian [/QUOTE]
