VLC fails to render Humax .ts file and hangs
This is the only such file out of some 180 files recorded by the Humax PVR-9300T & HDR-Fox T2 player that will not play properly. It fails to render properly, instead displaying a series of basic coloured screens punctuated by random other-coloured pixel blocks. There is no recognisable image, and the colours do not even match the actual programme content at that point. This is true throughout the file. If VLC is left to try to play the file it eventually hangs (becomes unresponsive) and the process needs to be deleted. The file is, however, playable without issue by other video players, e.g. Splash Player Lite.
