    This appears to be a timing issue in the Video processing.
    A long shot . What if the value of the crystal oscillator "X1" on the main board was changed to a higher value. It presently has a 30.000 value.

    It worked for years with no issues.
    Without monitoring the stream I don't know for sure but my guess is Bev has changed up something in the stream.
    Just my guess....

    Yes, I miss my sv8k big time. The problem is like someone mentioned, we have no support and this could be fixed easy if only a coder could pick up where others left it. This most likely will not happen so I parked mine and got a new box. Now keep in mind the new box it better but if you are on the wrong res setting while watching a B*V hd fast moving sports, that same jitter is present, just not as bad. The new box has update to match today's video while sv does not as it needs adjustment to the video codec that our sv8k uses. It's obvious B*V made these changes which is present in the stream and affecting mostly (like they probably planned) our SV8K boxes.

    For a long time the sv8k has been a real work horse, and still works great on D*sh sats but maybe not for long?

    My new pinwheel hd is a work in progress and looking good so far

    Cheers

    That would be a very bad idea!! The main xtal controls the timing for everything--serial port comms, HDMI timing, video sync, audio DAC--change the timing and nothing will work right.

    My guess on what is happening would be two guesses. It could be that the HD stream is taking so much of the processor's time that you are limited on what else the box can do--but the boxes the provider's use are no faster than what we have by and large so that would not be a viable guess I'm thinking. But the suggestion that the stream is sending cmd07 packets more often would be a real killer IMO and that would be true of most any box as the web just does not let you update the CWs really fast (at least that was always the excuse about another NA provider and IKS where you only had 5 seconds).

    You could make a change in the box's code to let you have an idea of how the stream is coming in--effectively make the box a "logger".

    Hum, there could be a third possible guess--the box has to buffer a couple of frames to get the image displayed "smooth"--what if the coders only buffered a couple frames and should have buffered more? I know older boxes only had RAM enough for 3 frames, but with SD that is fine--one displaying, one ready for display and one being filled.

    Just curious, are the people that are having trouble from the north or south? Shouldn't make any difference just curious.

    Yes sir that's what I'm saying. Picture is perfect. Biggest problem I have is it reboots sometimes when I switch severs. Also I have replaced all the caps not so lone ago and replaced the 8PSK with an updated one of ebay. I also leave the top cover off all the time. Other than that I have no idea why others are having problems and I'm not. Not like me to be lucky. lol

    I have 3 of these SVs and the reboot when switching servers is NORMAL this is how they all are
    The problems with the choppy or stuttering picture seems to be mostly with fast moving action like a lot of sports
    or action films,I don`t really notice any of this on the channels i usually watch and it is fine for me
    But out of curriosity i have checked on some sports channels and i did notice some stuttering but it is still watchable

    i also notice the stuttering only on the nhl package on bev all other channels on the 82 come in no stuttering at all. and yes the booting problem is very common with mine also I've tried a few tricks to stop it from doing it like waiting a few seconds when changing but it still does it. kind of a pain in the ass but I still love my sv

    It's been said by a few others that run a single lnb aimed at the 82 that they have no issues either.
    Hummmm.....

    I find the best way to see the problem is tune in to CNN HD and watch the banner at the bottom of the screen. It scrolls in pulses rather than run across the screen smoothly.

I just got my beav and noticed this issue right away with my sv. I try to fix it with switching resolution back and forth from 720 to 1080 and it usually fixes it for a bit. It is a pita.
    My SV8000 has the same problem and I also found that switching from 1080i to 720p or from 720p to 1080i fixes the problem for a couple of minutes at a time. That isn't a workable solution so I played around with the Display Mode and found that the stuttering went away for about 5 minutes when set to Pan & Scan and then toggled the display mode. A little better but no solution. I'll play around some more when I have time.
