Yes, the repeat test looks like it used the first tuner twice - strange. Let me know if you think there is something wrong that you can reproduce.

<sigh>
The worst problems are the ones that can't be explained!
In my last post I said it looked like only the second tuner was affected by the problems. I wonder if the onboard signal splitter is causing these issues - maybe it is disabled by default (one tuner or the other gets all signal), and only when enabled (ie. both tuners need signal) does it cause problems. An interesting test that you could do to confirm this is force the second tuner to tune the first channel, then force the first tuner to tune the second channel - we'd be looking to see whether the signal quality switches (ie. tuner 2 gets 100% and tuner 1 gets ~30%).

The TsWriter that I promised is attached. Installation is the same routine as with the TVLibrary.dll that you already have. Remember to back up the original one just in case. The only change here is that the continuity/discontinuity logging is partially disabled - I've disabled the line "Continuity error..." that appeared most in your log files but left the others enabled for now.

[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 889588, member: 82144"] Yes, the repeat test looks like it used the first tuner twice - strange.
