Most channels work perfectly fine, except for a handful which have decode issues. However those problem channels will kick in for a few seconds before stopping again. The problem seems to switch between channels every month or so (not had the box for long, but originally it was a different channel this always happened on, now that channel is fine all the time and its a different channel that has the issue).
Box is a zgemma h2s running the latest openatv and the "normal plugins" (nothing fancy, just followed the kiddac setup guide mainly). Channel is signal is strong (72% SNR) and the picture is fine for the odd few seconds it works every now and then (which also indicates the line provider has access to this channel otherwise it would never work).
Here's an extract from the log file (line provider anonymised)

Can anyone shed any light on the issue?
