What do you mean by hang? It would be nice to have the debug logs showing what
happens when you change the channel.

Such message comes from libVlc and simply indicate that it failed to parse or
display a MPEG Transport Stream. If you're getting this, Kaffeine didn't hang.
Probably, it switched the channel and sent the data to libVlc, but either the
TS stream is corrupted (week signal or too much interference) or it failed to
identify the start of the TS frames. LibVlc 2.x has some issues decoding
MPEG-4. Although still experimental, libVlc 3.0 seems better to parse streams
with MPEG-4.
