The channels you listed are all from the "RTL family" and I guess that's
why they all suffer from the same problems.

What we would need is somebody who has the time to try the various driver
and firmware versions, to find out when exactly this started to become a
problem. I myself won't be able to do this before the weekend...

So, if anybody is willing to jump in here, I suggest he/she creates a recording
from an RTL channel with the latest driver/firmware (since I strongly beleive that
the problem is only in the _replay_), verifies that the problems occur when replaying
with the same driver, and then goes back the driver/firmware versions to find the
youngest versions where replay was still ok. Once we know that we can try to
determine exactly which changes caused the malfunction.
