MPEG 2 channels black screen, after MPEG 4 channel tuned.

Hopefully I can explain this well. I use two HDHomerun Primes, they're connected to tuning adapters . Everything works fine when tunes that use MPEG 2. But when i tune to a channel thats MPEG 4 and then go to a channel thats MPEG 2. The screen is black but I can hear the audio.

Another odd twist this only happens to the "switched" channels. If I tune to a non switched channel that uses MPEG 2, its just fine. This also happens on my HTPC, extenders, and desktop. Anyone else experience this?

Yep, going back two years. See my posts in this thread for more, including the SiliconDust response to the ticket I opened with them on it:

As it turned out, the OP in that thread had a similar but different problem, but what I described has been confirmed by at least one other Prime user before you, and a Ceton user came by later in that thread and confirmed he also is experiencing it.
