I don't think the TS stream is damaged or that I have poor receptions, because when I just retry to start mplayer it will find the stream eventually (it may take 1-5 attempts) and when the sound is synchronized and you don't stress the cpu on the system you can watch the dvb-t stream without problems for hours. I was hoping some special command options where needed to fix the issues and somebody would know them. The distortion is that the sound is so distorted you can't make anything useful of it, but after stopping the stream wait a bit and then resume the stream it is fixed. Kind regards, Jelle
