Pausing, or rewinding doesn't work at all. It only comes back if I  
leave the playback, go back to the menu, and start playing again. I  
noticed that it doesn't only happen with Live TV anymore, it's the  
same with recorded shows.

The important thing to note is, the sound is fine on all recordings.  
Even if I lose the sound while playing back, the information is  
there, so if I leave and come back, it plays back normally.

The sound card is the generic one that's on my motherboard, I believe  
it's Intel. I don't think the issue is related to that, as I have  
been using it for months without issues.

Thanks again for your help.
