| Portal Member  |  what is the best config for watching footy TV-Server Version: 16600 MediaPortal Version: 16600 MediaPortal Skin: X-face Windows Version: xp sp2 CPU Type: e6400 HDD: 120GB Memory: 2GB Motherboard: asus P5B-mx/ wifi ap Motherboard Chipset: intel 946 Motherboard Bios: 7020 Video Card: Nvidia 8600 GTS Video Card Driver: 169.09 Sound Card: soundblaster audigy 2 Sound Card AC3: Sound Card Driver: 1. TV Card: technotrend C-1500 1. TV Card Type: DVB-C 1. TV Card Driver: 5.0.0.6 MPEG2 Video Codec: nvidia MPEG2 Audio Codec: cyberlink Satelite/CableTV Provider: NTL IRELAND HTPC Case: ANTEC FUSION Cooling: standard Power Supply: ANTEC Remote: hauppage mce TV: SONY BRAVIA 40W2000 1080p TV - HTPC Connection: DVI - HDMI hi I'm currently using Nvidia purevideo for mpeg2 with bob de-interlacing and EVR. It is excellent for relatively still TV but when I watch footy of something with fast moving images it is too blurry and pixalated for my liking. I was wondering if anyone else has fixed this issue or could tell me if it my setup or my TV? I am upscaling it to 1080p on my Bravia and was wondering if it would be the fact it only runs a 60Hz refesh rate? The newer models run at 100Hz and are advertised as being better for watching sports? Thanks guys |

Country:  | Since you are in PAL-land, you should use 50 Hz. Also: There are perhaps better deinterlacing methods than BOB for fast moving picture. Good reading: http://www.100fps.com/ EDIT: 2. thought, bob may be the way to go...

Country: | No, the best is running 50Hz material @ 50 Hz (dunno about running 50 Hz @ 100 Hz - probably good). 50 Hz material @ 75 Hz is an alternative, but not as good as 50 Hz material @ 50 Hz. (Did that make sense?)
