[QUOTE="BKCH, post: 613264, member: 13992"] HI Wile E. - Thanks heaps for posting!! I spent hours this weekend trying a bunch of things - but mostly they've made little difference. I've tried: SAFv4 v SAFv5 RTSP vs no RTSP I also copied a recorded .ts file from my server to the local MP client and played it from there and still get the same problem. But I'm still getting evr logs with lots of: 02-05-2010 22:56:10.083 [7b0]Dropping frame, behind 4.49 ms, last sleep time 0.00 ms. 02-05-2010 22:56:10.122 [7b0]Dropping frame, behind 3.24 ms, last sleep time 0.00 ms. 02-05-2010 22:56:10.199 [7b0]Dropping frame, behind 1.04 ms, last sleep time 0.00 ms. and TsReader logs with: 02-05-2010 23:03:46.013 [1194]Aud/Ref : 5119.630, Late Compensated = 46.720 ( 1.058 A/V buffers=01/24), Clk : 45.662498, State 2 02-05-2010 23:03:46.026 [1194]Aud/Ref : 5119.662, Late Compensated = 46.752 ( 1.069 A/V buffers=01/26), Clk : 45.683270, State 2 02-05-2010 23:04:47.366 [1340]Vid/Ref : 5179.910, Late ?-frame(00), Compensated = 107.000 ( -0.013 A/V buffers=01/70), Clk : 107.013062, State 2 02-05-2010 23:04:47.402 [1340]Vid/Ref : 5179.790, Late ?-frame(00), Compensated = 106.880 ( -0.170 A/V buffers=01/68), Clk : 107.049789, State 2 Some questions for anyone who has reliable performance from the HD-PVR: 1.
