[Christian Rapsch]

only seems to happen while playing h.264/AVC

update: now I have only a black screen again and have to use vlc or mpc to circumvent the issue

it happens on all H264/AVC channels?

Did you try changing video codec and renderer?

yes

Did you try changing video codec and renderer?

I had a error message before but now it works. Could a restart of the PC have solved the problem?

It crashed again so I will try to switch from LAV to Microsoft on H.264

update: well switching to Microsoft on H.264 wasn't really doing anything crash and burn

now it is back on the old TV channel and LAV

Try these:
1) try more codecs both for H264 video and audio, here is a codec package you can try to install.

2) change video/audio renderers if possible, see if it helps.
3) remove all modules and plugins from \modules and \plugins folders
4) make sure your display drivers is up-to-date
5) try changing codec options (in video options dialog, left click codec name in the filters box at right side, then try disabling enabling features, especially "hardware decoding" of the the codecs sometimes might cause problem)
6) make sure you don't have any packet losses (analysis -> info box), signal doesn't have any noise

If all doesn't help, send me some sample stream for me to work / test on.

How to capture a sample stream
1) Depending on the device you got there, you might first need to enable "Full TS" mode in device options & restart DD
2) start "TSWriter2" (or "Stream Recorder") module (under DD main menu->Modules) on the problematic transponder, record about 100 mb
3) upload file to somewhere (pcloud.com, justcloud.com, dropbox, google drive etc). and send links to me

Nothing worked so I reinstalled DVB Dream and the problem seems to be resolved.
