General Support (140 Viewers)

Post problems you have when using MediaPortal, or pre installation questions in here.
In MP configuration until General there is a thing to tick which reads Use DirectX Exclusive mode in Fullscreen. Enable that, and if it doesnt help try forcing Vsync to On in the Nvidia Drivers (Performance and Quality Settings).

Hi I'm an avid user of CVS builds. Lately I noticed the autotune dialog have been made fully automatic. This is good, but then it is no longer possible to manually tune your channels? Say you need to change a single channel that has been moved to another frequency - how do you do that? Yes, you could manually input the new...

If you dont actually want the PVR side of things you should be ok for cpu requirements as we've seen a few people using a LOT less. The cpu requirement is mainly there for PVR functionality, but still the main thing that those people with slower boxes did have was DX9 (lesser extent DX8.1) video cards.

I will try the vsync option, might help in the non exclusive mode too. You don't get a fair wait after selecting a video file while it switches to fullscreen mode? I might have to look at other settings to see if there's an issue. Hopefully the vsync option will make the non-exclusive mode work without tearing though, as it's...

Actually, .2 RC2 did not have any sort of delay between channel changes, but the stuttering was there the entire time. I had to pause TV for a few seconds in order for it to work on any channel, at any time. I can tell you that 0.1.3.0 worked fine from both aspects...no stuttering, no delay in changing channels.

That card you suggested will do fine. Regarding the cable, you can't buy one as far as I know. You will have to solder your own. It isn't hard at all but it can require some time trying to find the right settings for your TV.

Unfortunately my GRUNDIG only has SCART (which still is a good connection), no VGA or DVI. A DVI or VGA to SCART Box is going to cost me around $200, and the DVI to Component Video adapter (I could then get a component to SCART adapter) for my graphics card (it cost AU$40'ish) only MIGHT (probably not) work in Australia. So I have to...

In answer to your second question, NO, because the TV card remote driver does the transmission decoding. You would need either a serial or usb receiver to use GIRDER or HIP, to set your remote buttons to do what you want them too. 8)
