[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1276938, member: 109222"] Hi and welcome. This is "normal". The ffmpeg option is a relic of long gone times. tsreader is the only way to go today... Aside this you should not activate RTSP stream. This indicates there is no issue on the MediaPortal side. The Shield normally should be fine. May I ask which version it is? "Pro" or "Normal", 2019 or 2017 or even older? I'm using much cheaper Android TV Boxes (not older than 2 years but below 50$ each) all over my place and they all are working like a charm. How do you connect your Shield to your Network? Wlan or wired Lan? Wlan can be too slow for the huge data rates Live TV generally has. HDTV has bitrates used on 4K streaming content and SDTV has bitrates used on FullHD content. Don't ask me why but it is the case. Best is to use wired Lan for connecting, if possible. This is an issue of Kodi in general, not related to the PVR addon. This happens every now and then even when you play locally available video files. But it should not happen every time. A few seconds delay (could still be seen as a freeze) after stopping the playback is "normal" as Kodi needs to save many things inside it's database every time you stop playback... But sometimes this "delay" lasts for eternity and then you best "kill" Kodi and start it again. Not nice but I don't know how to solve this. On Kodi 17.6 this was much worse than on Kodi 18 but with every new version of Kodi 18 this again is getting worse. This is a "feature" of the MP TV Engine as it tries to restart an interrupted recording as fast as possible. I also don't like this but many other people want it this way...
