    Hi there my TV keeps Freezing and for the life of me no setting I've tried changes anything. I have attached a log from a 2sec start up where it froze straight away. Please help it my main HTPC that the family use.

    If yr TV is freezing, it means that the signals from original source, eg Satellite, tv aerial, etc
    Is not
    1- connection properly
    2- cables r loose
    3- signal from all sources eg internet ,tv aerials are coming 100%
    A times when downloading speed is under 2mbps , then the signals will freeze
    Or come n go

    Yeah, your signal quality looks like it has been compromised:
    [2015-03-19 18:17:59,205] [Log ] [7 ] [INFO ] - ***** SIGNAL LEVEL: 64, SIGNAL QUALITY: 29 *****

    TeVii tuner signal strength and quality readings are percentages between 0 and 100, so 29 is not good.
    There are corresponding continuity errors in the TsWriter log.
    Please check your dish alignment, LNB condition and skew, and cabling terminations. :)

    10m? Seems unlikely. It really would have to be blocking the line of sight.
    How long has the problem been affecting you?
    If you're in the right part of the country I'd be wondering if the winds from cyclone Pam moved your dish. It doesn't take much...

    It's been getting worse over time, pretty sure now it's the tree it is right in its path. 10m infront.

    Well, I guess you could try pruning the tree on the weekend or something. Good luck! :)

    Thanks it was the dish someone didn't do up the base bolts. Signal level about 70% and signal quality about 90% now, so I'm back in the good books.

    Playing audio cd's keeps stopping at random in the middle of songs. It can happen on the first song or sometimes after a few songs have played. If I press Next, it will start playing the next song. This happens with BASS and Wasapi players. It does not happen if I use Internal dshow player (which doesn't sound as good as either of...

    I compliment you on the thoroughness of your investigations. (y) Unfortunately, I don't have any ideas what the problem might be. :( Perhaps someone else will post with some suggestions. :unsure: -- from CyberSimian in the UK
