Live TV - Audio good, Video displays then goes black screen

[JavaWiz]

Not sure what's going on here and when it started, but when I try to view live TV off my main NPVR recording server, the video shows for a couple seconds, then goes black. This is not a 'real' problem for me as I typically don't watch live TV, and the recordings work perfectly. I'm just curious as to what is going on...

• NPVR 3.1.1
  
• Hauppauge 2250
  
• Win8
  
• Analog channel (via Composite connection)
  
• LAV Decoder
  
• No obvious errors in the log
  
• Video shows for about 2 seconds w/audio
  
• Video goes black, audio continues
  
• Recorded shows playback perfectly.
  

I'm guessing it's the decoder, but I don't get why the video shows for a few seconds then goes black. If it was decoder, I would have thought the video wouldn't show at all.

I've attached the logs and sample video reflecting the issue can be seen here: https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=16...deo%2c.mp4

Does help if you untick "use alternate osd with missing video" on the Settings->Misc2 screen?

That worked! Thanks...

Great.

That setting has caused problems for a few. The setting has been off by default in new installs for quite a while, but it still occasionally trips up existing users that installed before then.
