[QUOTE="Phaedra, post: 715373, member: 110603"] Status update. Yesterday, after several days of testing, things went badly wrong again. The last days, I noticed some tv channel freezing that would not be acceptable for a live TV configuration. Even recordings stopped after a while, making the system unusable for day to day TV watching / recording. Yesterday evening, coming home, I started the client and selected a HD channel. This went very well for over an hour, after which I switched channel. This started a new episode of freezing on several channels, gradually getting worse, until I got no signal on any channel anymore. Going to the server, starting a scan, no signal was found. Tried other DVB software, same result : no signal. That sounded familiar ; it seems to happen at regular intervals. So, instead of sleep / wake the server, I did a cold reboot, and everything went back to normal. Conclusion : somewhere, somehow, inbetween cold reboots, something "builds up" which seems to cause my DVb card to malfunction (since no DBV software can get it to tune channels anymore). Maybe I should try to reproduce this via sleep / wake cycles, and endurance tests with HD streaming. [/QUOTE]
