[QUOTE="MacMini, post: 241587, member: 20587"] Thanks for the tip, Spragleknas. I did try it, and have been trying just about every new build, hoping to find a way to fix my TV woes. It's not like these are such unusual cards: a Hauppauge 950 and a HDHomeRun. They work flawlessly in most other TV-enabled front-ends. I had been pestering people and bringing up the problem, unfortunately without success. I posted recently in Bugs ([url]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/bugreports-tv-server-client-85/audio-gets-out-sync-after-channel-changes-36159/#post240814[/url],) but as of today, not a single person has even looked at my log:-( Sadly, this has been all too common in the TV area. I basically got to the end of my rope (well, my wife holds the other end:-)) So, last night, with a heavy heart, I uninstalled Media Portal, and spent some time reconfiguring Vista MCE (getting rid of menus I don't use, renaming menus, installing plugins like Netflix, MyTV, BR/HDDVD, etc..) MCE is not as sleek as Media Portal (with Monochrome,) and the navigation is not as intuitive. After MP, there are a few things in Vista MCE, which definitely feel clunky and poorly designed. But the whole thing works. One can watch TV, flip through channels, no sync issues, no freezes. MP is, by far, the best designed, IMO, front-end out there. But the TV portion really needs to be nailed down. Maybe it needs new blood, and maybe the next version will solve most serious issues. I am grateful for all the work all the developers are putting in, and if/when TV becomes functional for people like me, I'll be back in a heart beat (and will donate, and preach its wonders to others:-))) Thanks again!
