video freezing causing record to stop

Postby frubsen » Sun Nov 04, 2007 9:34 pm

hi all,

seem to have a problem with the video freezing occasionally which causes whatever is recording to stop, however the counter keeps going.

if i change the channel, the video will start up again

i'm using the nvidia codec.

any idea why?

sounds weird.

Do you get any error message when freezing occured ?

Check your PID statistics to see if your device or driver plays up. (Main menu->Analysis->PID Statistics) You must see the counters increasing all the time, check if it stops after the problem. That would indicate you have problem with the tuner or line. (tuner gets hot ?) If it is ok , then check "Con.Err" column. Normally you should see 0 for all pids there. If you see any number greater than zero, that would mean there are packet loss (signal levels are too weak or wind plays up !??)
