[QUOTE="Peter Mee, post: 1040768, member: 143574"] I have a problem whereby a particular channel degrades gradually over a period of about an hour to the point where it's just a black screen with intermittent audio. I have a single-seat installation of MP 1.5.0 on an Q6600 Quad Core CPU. I use Digital Devices Octopus / DuoFlex to tune both DVB-T and DVB-S2 signals, all free to air. Yesterday, I was watching some sport on one of the DVB-T channels, (HD). All was fine for about 45 mins then some infrequent pixelation and stuttering appeared. Maybe a couple of seconds every couple of minutes. This continued and escalated in severity and frequency over the next 30 minutes to the point where the channel was unwatchable (constantly breaking up). Later, this progressed to a completely black screen and intermittent audio. Having left the situation overnight, the channel is now back working again. This happened several weeks ago on the same channel but I put it down to weather conditions on the day. Yesterday, however, was a fine day and no other channels on the same multiplex were affected. Here's everything I've tried without success; -Stop live TV and start it up again inside mediaportal. -Quit mediaportal and restart -Shutdown computer and restart -Change TV codec -Change timeshift folder to alternate drive -Add 'RelaxTsReaderForBadReception.txt. file to drive root I've attached log files generated when the problem was manifest. Is note that the TSReader file is full of Video Continuity errors. I tried recording the problem channel but the recording exhibits the same problems. No other channels on either tuner exhibit these issues while this is happening. Any advice appreciated. I'm about to dump my satellite provider in favour of a MP solution but this is a heavily watched channel in our house and I cannot really afford to not have it reliable. Thanks in advance Peter [/QUOTE]
