In an attempt trying to test I have been running TvServerStressTest program to test if TV Server alone is crashing or if it is a client problem. That channel change is getting slower is not the problem but probably the symptom of the problem I guess. Anway, I first run a test serie of 100 channel changes.

I have attached log but those logs was when problem has already started so you will not see when the problem started. I am trying to cause it to fail again to have som better logs [/QUOTE]
