| Portal Member | I don't know the specific card, but if the card is not a hardware-mpeg card, it probable stresses your CPU/GPU far more than plain 720p playback. Have you tried different codecs?

(and when some dev adds better menu handling, multiple calls to modules and plugins with different options and much better dbase handling, it will be love... ah and a nice 3D front end and inter-module messaging system and...)

| Well the card does says Full MPEG2 supported, not sure if that is the same as hardware MPEG. But I know I do have it set to hardware on the Nvidia forceware software. and it does have an integrated TV encoder too, not sure if that helps but it should. Haven't tried diff decoders, any suggestions on which decoders to try? Thanks |
