"Attempted to read or write protected memory"

Hih, Other than AF9015 can do this error also.




Using ffdshow decoder causes that in my system.

The only mpeg2 decoder that doesn't produce a black screen for me is ffdshow (which I am using). I found a post on this site where someone had compiled several codecs specifically for GB-PVR/NPVR, called saf400. I uninstalled my codecs, and installed this ensemble, and it greatly improved my playback. I can skip forward and back, and it only locks up occasionally, with sound playing, but picture locked. I then have to exit to the menu, and go back in. I noticed it often happens when NPVR jumpes over a comskipped area... for some reason the video halts.

Getting better, day by day. At least I can tape some shows now. Still can't get my second capture device running though.

That was me

You should use SAF5 *unlocked*, SAF4 is too outdated now.

"Unexpected error calling StartStream(): System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt."

Its a fairly generic error message. It's just saying that some native code (ie drivers or directshow filters) is trying to write to memory that doesnt belong to the process.
