Same thing here, after I installed the Moonlight player. Try to unregister
the Moonlight filters, with the installer and reregister the Elecard filters
and dvbrtp.ax. But after this you can not use MediaPlayer to play the
stream.

I have perfect sync. Have you tried to stream from different TV channels?
From the FAQ:

Q: Which channels cause problems, which are know to work.

A; I didn't check all of them of course. The lower the bitrate the better.
MTV Europe, Viva
   are working very well, ARD, ZDF, Sat1, RTL are ok. Pro7 isn't working at
all, don't know
   why.

I see, you have more than one NIC in your computer?
