Hate to say it, and I mention it only for point of reference... I *don't*
see that problem, and occasionally I'll have errors in my ATSC streams.
(I'm OTA, so it's only a matter of time before an error happens!)
After an error my preamp does tend to go nuts for about five seconds trying
to re-lock onto the SPDIF signal (flipping back and forth between DD and
PCM), but I think it's just because it's old and I'm too cheap to replace
it. If I hit pause, then un-pause, it'll re-lock instantly. (Ahhh, the
joys of old (sic) circus logic chips! :) )
