what is causing me to loose packets

momentary signal losses
weak signal level
"hot" tuner
maybe USB/PCI bus related problems

replaced all my wires to new rg6/u
no diseqc straight to pci card
signal 80-90%
quality is the same
the computer is turned off at night and when freshly started dd does same thing looses packets dont think it is "hot" tuner
you mention this "maybe USB/PCI bus related problems" how can i check this? dd would run perfect if i can fix this.
thank you

maybe trying on another PC / motherboard ?

it could also be plugins if the channels you've tried were scrambled.

I assume you get timestamp-breaks on all transponders ?

ill try on another pc later today
newest plugin
timestamp rarely

it is the same on other computer starts off perfect than starts freezing due to (packet loss) comes back fine than freezes than maybe a T.break any suggestions on how to fix this?

ok ive narrowed it down to my ati radeon x1300 graphics card. fresh install using onboard video sd channels run fine no losses as soon as i add my card, i get the losses. any thing i can do?

put in my sons ati radeon 7000 and it runs perfect except buffer runs high(red bar)

maybe ati radeon x1300 was sharing the same system resources with your DVB card. (IRQ ?) maybe on another motherboard they could work together. just an assumption.
