then continues. From that moment, as you imagine, sound and image are out of sync.<br>Furthermore, the aspect ration of the liveTv image is sporadically changing back ond forth from 4:3 to 16:9 during the same TV show.<br>The only suspicious message I see in the log is something like "Strange error, flushing buffer" (sorry I'm not in front of my machine right now)<br><br>I could post any other usefull information concerning my system but I don't know what would be interesting and I feel my post is long enough for now<br><br>I thank your very much for any help you would give me<br>best regards<br><br><br><br></span><br></span></div>
