upgrade to v2.4.3 = "The tuner being used for live tv is no longer available"

I dont know - that's a new one on me. Post your logs though and I'll see if anything stands out.

I was able to have it happen again. Selected an HD program, then arrowed down to the next and hit enter, received the "divide by zero" error.

Thanks, Jake

Do you have the patches installed? ie particularly #4 from http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...arted-info

Ok, I applied that patch (I'm just now seeing how things are done around here). So I've got a question on that. Several patches afterwards updated the same unmanaged.dll file. Are the patches accumulative, so that if I apply the last one it includes all previous updates?

I applied only the one you mentioned though that updated the Unmanaged.dll. I was about to say all good, when I got the divide by zero. I had to change the channels maybe 4 or 5 times. The video was very stuttery (and always has been with HD video), and when I looked at the resource monitor, the disk I/O was around 43mb/s which on this 2.5" drive is probably it's max. NIC IO was acceptable.

Yes - though generally you're best to install all the patches in that sticky thread, in the order they're listed.

Also, in a client/server setup you need to install the patches on both client and server. Some of those client patches where actually changes needed on the server.

Because of extensive logging NextPVR is not the most efficient server but disk i/o is typically in MB/s vs Mb/s for video bitrate. Rarely are HD broadcasts more than 20Mb/s which is only 2.5 MB/s leaving lots of room.
