Otherwise your machine seems to be to slow. I think it works pretty good with HD Suisse : buffer usage: 1458, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1444, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1498, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1498, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1498, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1453, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1435, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1487, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1452, 0, 9, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1450, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1448, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1411, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1395, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1468, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1434, 0, 9, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1432, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1430, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1395, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1466, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1449, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1416, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1414, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1412, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1475, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1459, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1443, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1407, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1405, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1498, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1455, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1439, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1423, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1392, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 buffer usage: 1463, 0, 10, 0, 0xa40910 Thank you really really much !!!
