[QUOTE="reprive, post: 98327, member: 27906"] I discovered MediaPortal this week and decided to give it a try. After some experimenting with the various configuration options I have most of it running (config below) and I've become quite enthousiastic. Great work! One thing I can't figure out (but suspect to be codec related) is how to get all DVB-C radio channels to work while also keeping TV audio. First I had an issue with mute TV channels but this was fixed by using the DScaler audio decoder in stead of the nVidia one. However now a lot of radio channels are mute (also with nVidia). I then switched audio decoder to AC3filter which gives sound but it is stuttering (some kind of regular hiccups) on all radio channels and makes some TV channels go mute. Couldn't see any irregularities in GraphEdit but I must admit I don't know exactly what to look for as I'm certainly no expert in this area, but at least all boxes are connected and run from capture to rendering. I've done some browsing on the support forum and found some potential solutions (e.g. AC3-PID for television) but none seemed to be applicable. Strange thing is that with Showshifter, which I also have on the machine (and intend to stop using if I get this all fixed), the radio as well as the TV sound are fine on all channels. I'm a bit hesitant to play around with codecs etc. because that may mess up Showshifter which I don't want to do just yet. Attached a logfile, what I did is start MediaPortal, go to TV and view Sailing Channel for a while (worked fine) then go to Radio and listen to 3 voor 12 BPM (also works) and then switch to Radio Donna (mute). Interesting to note (don't know if it's a coincidence) is that all channels with working sound are on the same frequency. I've been looking at the logfiles myself as well and I'm not sure what the 'Harder than Hell' reference comes from (e.g. EPG log), it's also a radio channel but I didn't use it in this session. I've done all I could think off, and I'm a bit stuck now. I would appreciate if someone could help me out. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
