There is a small hiccup in audio when you come back from trickplay, etc. That's been there for a while, and just seems to be a normal part of parsing the MPEG-2 stream. But you said this lasts for over a second? That seems longer than I'm used to. > Given your comments and Michaels, I am wondering if I have a defective > box.

A failing drive would have some limited number of bad sectors. It wouldn't affect everything at once. But it is hard to know what you're seeing. If this is just a flash when you start playback, I think that's normal. There can be a 'gap' between playing the loopset (background in the menus) and starting the video playback. -MZ -- megazone-at-megazone.org http://www.MegaZone.org/ Gweep, Geek, Human, me. http://www.TiVoLovers.com/ http://www.Eyrie-Productions.com/ -><- Hail Eris "A little nonsense now and then, is relished by the wisest men" 508-852-2171
