[QUOTE="Pom, post: 806112, member: 23933"] mm - thanks for your analysis. The logs date back a few days, at one point i disabled the DVB-S card because the problems were so bad at the time - when it was diabled i selected the odd channel to make sure it really was. That's what you've seen in the logs. Re C4 HD tuning parameters, i will pump in the ones you gave me, but i still saw problems with this channel after i did a full channel rescan and let MP populate the parameters. This is actually what prompted me to put values in for FEC rate etc. which MP seemed to have left as "Not selected" or something along those lines. Admittedly i got those parameters off another forum but seemed to work ok after i'd put them in! Please can you advise as to what hardware (and software) elements can cause 100's of discontinuities in the space of a couple of minutes? Obviously the tuner itself, but what about codecs and the graphics card? I recently changed to PDVD10 codecs from PDVD8. It's the intermittent nature that is difficult in all this. For example, last night around 8.30pm, C4HD and ITV1 HD were working perfectly when i tested them (you may spot this in the logs). Then this morning (after PC failed to enter sleep mode and had been on all night...) C4HD was broken. Yes i agree that evidence points to an overheating problem. I still don't think the graphics card is involved because problems seem to be with DVB-S only, plus my GPU runs at 50-52°C under full load thanks to the hefty passive cooler i pimped it with. Cheers Lee PS. The logs probably weren't a good set for you to look at as i only captured symptom #1 this morning. I wouldn't necessarily expect you to find symptoms 2 and 3 by trawling back through the old logs. The vast number of 'discontinuities' i mentioned - i mean 100's, even more than 1000 literally within a minute or less! I appreciate that you may find some on the DVB-T channels also, but not this crazy number. I will try and provide a better set of logs if i can showing all 3 problems. [/QUOTE]
