Hi all
I'm using media portal as a backend with a DVBSky s952 DVB-S2 card on the same PC (Windows 7) and using XBMC Frodo as the front end Xperience 1080 skin.
This is my first post on the forum so hello I've managed to get this far searching the forums and figuring stuff out as best as I can but I'm stuck at the moment so am after some help please.
I can live with the 5sec channels changes which are fairly consistent, am not too interested in recording, but I've found that when I've been watching a particular channel for an amount of time and then try to switch to another channel, rather than changing channel it seems to jump back in time to some point in the current channel. it seems to be if that channels been on for about 10mins but I've not quite narrowed it down as yet unfortunately (hope this makes sense).
Once I stop the stream and then go back into the guide and select another channel it's changes fine.
On that basis I'm thinking it must be something to do with the time shift file that I believe is created for the current channel and maybe the card going to sleep or something. I've done some tinkering but can't find a way to switch off time shifting in mediaportal tv server backend to test the theory.
Any suggestions or help will be greatfully received and if you need any more info let me know. Aside from this issue (and XBMC not picking up the ordering in all channels - but I'll post another thread for that as I don't think the things are linked) I've got everything working just about exactly how I want it. If we can get this sorted I'll likely cancel the cable which is something i've been wanting to be able to do for a while now
Thanks again guys
