UPDATE:

the issue depends on if a channel has AC3 or not. So channel 2 includes AC3 audio but 1 and 3 not.
the issue looks systematically. Whenever I tune from an AC3 channel to a none AC3 channel there is no audio. But only when timeshifting is on!
I will attach the media portal log

Hope somebody understands what I try to say. :D

a few channels I tried

1 ARD
2 ZDF --> AC3
3 RTL
4 RTL 2
5 Pro7 --> AC3
6 SAT1 --> AC3

synopsis: after installing the CVS build yesterday evening (mediaportal-cvs-11-02-2005--19-27.rar) the TV module works quite stable with timeshifting switched on. Only the sound disappeared after zapping the channels:
I recognized the following (repeatable):

Started mediaportal --> tuned to channel 1, sound is ok --> zapping to channel 2 --> picture and sound from channel 2 are ok --> zapping to channel 3, the picture is ok, sound is missing --> the same for all other channels --> zapping back to channel 2 also the sound is back --> zapping to channel 1 the sound is again missing --> switching off timeshifting, the sound apppears again

Without timeshifting this does not happen.

    I can confirm this problem still exists with CVS 11-03-2005--23-31.

    Channel changing with Timeshift OFF is fine, but once Timeshift is turned ON, the sound disappears from several channels, and occasionally MP will "self destruct" (terminate)....:(
