Streamed from Network means use of samba or nfs which means a block of non fragmemented ram is required and the drivers of dmm do not cover that properly with >=3.0 kernels..... use local harddisk instead.... when watching mkv files via this box it guaranteed will fail after a while.
So I put an mkv on the local harddisk. Instead of freezing after 5-10min, it did so after 10 seconds... doesn't seem to be a solution either.

mkv corrupt? Some you download are extremely dodgy...

No, tried with lots of different ones, from a source I have used for ages, and if I play them via Chromecast they're fine as well.

That doesn't say anything, a Chromecast is a modern media player, a DM8000 is neither of those two... It is designed to play back TS files, anything else that works is a bonus.

Still I don't suffer from any of this. Off course the driver issue in kernel >3.0 is there since I still use the same Box. I am using DreamOS (or at least what it was called then). I have both a internal HDD as wel as a formidable NAS and play A LOT of movies using the internal player. They range from DVD VOB's, MKV and MP4.. As said, with a 64MB CF card as swap file.
I'm confused as to what DreamOS is, googling it did not enlighten me.
Which image do you use, can you provide a link? Is there an advantage to using a CF card as opposed to a USB swapfile? Did you actually mean 64MB, or GB?

With 64MB swap you might need a month or so without reboot before it might crash... but it will crash guaranteed...
A month? I consider this a solution! If my box crashes once a month, I'm fine. World of a difference to every 5-10min...
