Test it out ... no need to invest money to get another lossy format running, when AC3 is good enough.

can you make a video of the pixelation?
i also use a nuc (d34010) and a pctv tuner(461e) and i suffer from artifacts on HD channels. Maybe it's a similar problem.

There is a Patch in Beta7 - http://openelec.tv/forum/120-news-announ...7-released
Quote:linux: add patch to enable Nuvoton CIR driver on probing, see https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/patch/22339
Maybe the fix for enabling CIR by autostart.sh isn't needed any more.

The one problem I cannot overcome, though, is pixelation/freezes with live TV using my PCTV 290e nanostick tuner. I get this with all the Openelec 3.95 betas. I notice similar reports here (around post 2743) and elsewhere (Openelec forums) but no potential fixes. The one conflicting report is from trsqr (post 2741) who says everything is rock solid stable since beta 3. Does anyone else have stable live TV on their Haswell NUCs? If so, perhaps you could report hardware, software and settings, which might help pinpoint the problems some of us are experiencing. My setup is:
nuc d54250wyk
290e plugged into USB 3.0 socket (this might be significant, a 2.0 socket would use different kernel modules)
openelec all betas with tvheadend
pixelation and occasional freezing, especially on HD channels, especially when there are graphics on screen (including xbmc menus)
