[QUOTE="lsandini, post: 237654, member: 27840"] Hello, Sorry for not using the template, but this is just a very generic question. I have been using the latest stable version of MP very happily on a testing platform, but I haven't brought the machine to the living room yet, since I am still experimenting. An HD channel has recently been added on our cable network, and although the channel is found and I can select it in the channel list, I can only hear the sound but I get no image. I thought it was a codec issue, but the channel can be readily watched with the FireDTV or DVBviewer software, using various H264 codecs that I have tested here and there. The codecs are selected correctly in MP. I have been instructed to install TVserver, with which unfortunately I have the dreaded "no audio/video detected" issue. Apparently and according to my log files, the .ts files are locked and TV server doesn't stream anything to the MP client, even in a single seat environment.
