Help! BeyondTV picture & audio freeze after period of time

[chanwp]

Everything was working fine for a few days until recently. The picture will freeze after a period of time (usually about 15 minutes) along with the audio. Once the video freezes, I can access the program guide, settings and all other areas of the program. It will even change channels on my external cable box, but then I get a black picture when it changes to the channel. If I shut down BeyondTV and restart it (I don't have to reboot the computer), then everything operates normally again until it freezes up again.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I read somewhere in the forum that reinstalling the pvr250 drivers helped, but why would it work for a while then stop working?

Specs: BeyondTV (latest build),Intel P4 2.4, 512MB, PVR250, m-audio revolution 7.1

I have exactly the same issue. I even installed the 3.5 beta version and the problem still appears. I bought the PVR 250 two weeks ago and it worked without a flaw the first week. Now it doesn't work more than 15 minutes.

not sure if my problem is the same thing with a PVR350 Live TV freezes and hangs BTV

BTV hangs totally for me, can't get to any menus.
