FusionHDTV DVB-T Dual Express (1 Viewer)

[frizbi]

Hi All

Just added a Divco FusionHDTV DVB-T Dual Express to my system and I have endless issues!

I had a Divco PCI TV turnner before hand and it work perfectly. This is what happens..

basically when I watch a video file, DVD or live tv within about 5 mins the video slows down, basically 1 frame per second or something like that. Sound also slows down.

Looking at the system the one of the CPU cores is running at about 50% and if I user process explorer to view process it seems that 50% is tied up in interupts.

I have an ASUS AMD 780G motherboard with at ATI 3400 Video card, the tv Card uses the PCi-E bus

Anyone seen anthing like this before ?


thanks!

Hi

Please find attached the full logs from my system not sure exactly what need to be uploaded so I sent it all.

I was able to replicated the fault a short time ago so please look at the 3/1/2011 logs at around 11:30am or so.

Another thing I noticed which leads me to belive its probably a hardware issue is that after the problem occurrs and I reboot the machine the TV card is nolonger reconised by Windows XP I need to do a full power off and start up for the card to come up again.

May be a pci-e issue with the 780G chipset ??

Thannks

Hi again fabs

You have *tons* of database connection errors. Have you changed something with your SQL Server database recently?

Hey!

Yea that's strange, haven't made any changes in that space, although the TV Series plugin did suffer a corput DB a while ago which I restored from backup. Could it be that SQL server hasn't started yet?

Thanks

fab

Yep, could be that SQL Server hasn't started, although it does say "login failed". I wonder whether the DB structure from your backup matches the structure that the version of MP you're using now expects to see...
