Sub,
reporting back that I have successfully changed up and down 5/6 channels with no stop back to main menu. Not a rigourous test but cetainly enough to show that the issue as it was before is resolved. There are some A/V sync issues sometimes after a channel change but guess that is one for Martin? Anyway this is excellent, thank you, both, great stuff.

Steeb we've talked about the a/v sync issue before and if the suggestions I gave you aren't working there is nothing more I am going to do.
Martin
OK thanks Martin,
I often forget what I have and haven't done (awful memory for such things) but what I think you refer to is the
no-seek-sync
in which case if I have the entry correct in my dongle.bin.config file
mvpmc -a 4:3 -m pal -o svideo --no-seek-sync --startup emulate --emulate 10.0.0.60 --em-flac & fi
that's been there a while and does not solve the issue.
thanks to you and Sub for putting so much work into this, at least there is LiveTV on the MVP's with NextPVR! Shame that I seem to be the only dinosaur left using them for LiveTV![]()
once again many thanks

You can try a few other things, but if normal files play ok, the MVP might not be fast enough to keep up without more buffering. A pause might help. Also I think you use powerline ethernet? if so you might get extra throughput using wired.
Note this patch does break potentially LiveTV on the NMT so it is not for everyone.
Martin
Martin,
will I find the possible other things to try if I go back through some threads? Tried the pause trick last night to see if that helped to buffer up a bit more but no joy. There's me with a bad memory, how about you with the opposite, remembering the powerline stuff! Yes powerline ethernet feeds the house but all testing is done with an MVP hooked straight into the same switch as the PVR server.
And I didn't know that about this patch (I haven't noticed any issues yet with NMT) what can it potentially break LiveTV wise?
cheers
steeb
If it won't sync on pause try removing --no-seek-sync and go back to defaults and see if pause helps.
Sub released this basically for MVP testing, and LiveTV may cause the PCH to freeze requiring a reboot.
