MediaPortal Forum - View Single Post - Nova-T 500 stutters

I had that with my Nova T 500 and pinpointed it to usbport.sys in the system thread (using sysinternals process explorer, now a microsoft product) using almost all CPU time... (funny enough, when stopping it manually in sysinternal process explorer, no more stutter, but i couldn't stop the PC anymore...)

I am running XP SP2. Usbport.sys was version 5.1.2600.2180 if i recall correctly.

On my system, getting a newer usbport.sys from Microsoft (such as the one you get by installing http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918005/en-us ) fixed the problem.

I since changed it to a Pinnacle PCTV Dual DVB-T Pro PCI with similar functionnalities but not problem whatsoever (and it doesn't get redected when coming out of standby, so you don't have to restart MediaPortal...)

Hope this helps
