    4. If you restart MP does the signal come back? (Y/N) Y
    5. If you change channel does the signal come back? (Y/N) Sometimes
    6. Do you require a reboot to be able to use TV? (Y/N) Sometimes
    7. Do you know of any tricks to re-enable TV without restarting / no

    The timeshift is off but the no signal detected occured 1-2 mins after TV is on.

    7. Do you know of any tricks to re-enable TV without restarting / rebooting? Y. Minimize into toolbar and restore.

    I could guess that it is heavily connected into videocard drivers. Using Nvidia FX 5200 that has no picture at all with latest drivers. Took step back and got picture back.

    I tested with TS both on and off. No difference.
    Zapped trough channels in tvguide about 10 times before freezing.

    Then I tested to just switch between channel 1 and 2 (NRK1 - NRK2)
    after about 10 times I got the "no signal" message and MP freezes.

    Same Bug + wrong DVB-T datas

    1. Card Name: Hauppauge and Pinnacle
    2. Card Type: Nova-T PCI and 300i
    3. Country: FR
    4. If you restart MP does the signal come back? (Y/N) Y
    5. If you change channel does the signal come back? (Y/N) Sometimes
    6. Do you require a reboot to be able to use TV? (Y/N) N
    7. Do you know of any tricks to re-enable TV without restarting / rebooting? Switch channels in guide

    After this bug "no signal", i launched "Mediaportal Setup" and i go to "TV Channel". 167 KHz wad added to carrier frequency of some channels. I reenter the right frequency and and relaunch "Mediaportal" and all is OK.

    I tried the fonction "Export" in "TV Channel" and after an import: the DVB-T datas of all channels were wrong.

    For the bug "no signal", i launch mediaportal with "high priority with "start /high mediaportal.exe" and i have less problem.

    For your information, i have two DVB-T Card:
    Hauppauge PCI Nova-T and a Pinnacle Mediacenter 300i.

    When i scan with the hauppauge, i detect all 28 french channels with the right carrier frequency. I rename all channels with "H_<Channel name>"

    When i scan with the Pinnacle, I detect all 28 french channels with "the right carrier frequency + 167 khZ". I rename all channels with "P_<Channel name>"

    I create 2 groups Hauppage et Pinnacle. I put all "H_*" channels in hauppauge group and all "P_*" channels in Pinnacle group.

    In Mediaportal TV, when i change channel and group to see TV, sometime some DVB-T datas became wrong and I can't see some channel... I must re-enter in "mediaportal setup" to correct information (Carrier frequency)... I don't know why...

    Sorry for my poor english..

    7. Do you know of any tricks to re-enable TV without restarting / rebooting? Toggle TV On/Off or TS On/Off.

    I loose signal on a regular basis mainly on PRIME which is a regional of SEVEN. Toggle TV On/Off usually fixes this. I have attached a log when changing from SBS2 (News) to PRIME. Black screen, then "No Signal Detected" Whenever I receive this error I always see "VMR9 stopped" in the logs.

    Hope this helps resolve this issue. If you need any more logs etc let me know.

    I don’t know if this is important

    I was just recording somthing and it lost the signal (in the end credits luckily)

    When I watched the recording the image pauses when it lost signal but the audio continued untill i stoped the record

    1. Card Name: Dvico FusionHDTV Plus DVBT
    2. Card Type: DVB-T
    3. Country: Melbourne, AU
    4. If you restart MP does the signal come back? (Y/N) Most of the time
    5. If you change channel does the signal come back? (Y/N) Rarely
    6. Do you require a reboot to be able to use TV? (Y/N) Rarely
    7. Do you know of any tricks to re-enable TV without restarting / rebooting? No.

    I haven't seen this on any other posts, but most of the time when the 'no signal detected' message comes up, a 'MediaPortal.exe has encountered an error' (standard XP crash message) briefly flashes on the screen before being covered again. When I exit MP (MP remains responsive), I can see the message.

    p.s. btw, good work devs for moving the TV stuff into a seperate thread/appDomain - now when TV stuffs up the entire interface doesn't stuff up.
