[QUOTE="nick8571, post: 880393, member: 126449"] Yes, this is what has me banging my head against the wall - other HD programmes are fine, it's just this one channel at this one time which seems to be affected *so far*. Daybreak on ITV1 HD, which is broadcast at around the same time is fine (this is DVB-S, not S2 though I believe), and BBC1 HD is fine at other times. I'd sort of suspected that something strange was happening with the actual stream or encoding that the BBC use, on the basis that I couldn't think of any other explanation, but if something's going on that somehow stops TsWriter in its tracks without leaving any traces in the logs (itself hard to understand), then why does it happen at different and (apparently) random times between 6.00am and 08.30 or so, and occasionally (eg yesterday) not at all? FWIW someone at AVForums who has the same card and MePo version recorded an episode of Breakfast at my request, and it completed correctly for the full allotted time, with a filesize as expected of just under 11GB. I'd almost be happier if the problem *did* start popping up at other times and with other channels, it would somehow seem less weird...[DOUBLEPOST=1341778965][/DOUBLEPOST]Oh, one other thing: I don't think there's a stream switch on BBC1 HD when the regional news is on, if that's what you meant - AFAIK the regional news *only* appears on the local (currently SD-only) channels, BBC1 West in my case. BBC1 HD continues to broadcast in HD with a suggestion that you switch channels for your local news, using a placeholder clip of hippopotami swimming in a circle against a red background. :D [/QUOTE]
