Hi Brian,

Which type of 'crashing' are you experiencing?

The most common channel change problem I have (on my nova dvb-t card),
is when you change a channel and then the new channel stutters, and eventually 
pauses.  exiting back to the menu, and restarting tv fixes this.
I believe this was investigated a few weeks ago, and possibly could be an audio 
bitrate change problem.

I seem to notice that more australians have tuning problems with the DVB cards.
is this because there a larger percentage of us using digital tv here, rather than 
analogue, or is there something different in our broadcasting that causes problems 
for us that the rest of the world doesn't seem to have.

regards,
