Video Freezes for 2-5 Sec

[nigfink]

Every now and then my MVP has the video freeze for about 2-5 sec and then goes back to playing perfectly. I happens about once per hour, but sometimes more. I'm running SageMC STV and on a 100 base network. It seems like the computer has plenty of cpu power left over (its a P4 1.7 with 512) Any ideas? Thanks for the help.

Ok, so now my video freezes very rarely, but when it does it freezes for about 10-15 sec, or more and then goes back to playing normally. It happens about once every 2 hours or so. I have done the network fixes for the stuttering, installed the reg hack, and it looks like the cpu is only running at about 20%. Please tell me somebody else is having these problems and has an idea how to fix it. I love this MVP and want to get more, but if it freezes like this I cant' use it. My next idea is to change my hub, maybe it is locking up.

Ok, I seem to have narrowed it down to only freezing during time shifting. If I'm playing a recording that has finished, it will not freeze, but if it is still recording it freezes every 15-45 min. I'm also using showanalyzer....any one else having these problems?

Stop running Showanlayzer and see if you get past the 15-45 min without freezing. If you do make sure you limit the CPU % that SA uses in it's configuration screen.
