Hello all,

I recently finished my HTPC project, and i love it.
The only problem that I have is that when the live TV is turned on everything slows down alot.

Moving to the TV guide while the live TV is on takes a very long time (when live TV is turned off it is fast).
Also changing channels is slow.

Everything else is very fast, DVD movies, music, tv series, internet radio all works great.
So the only problem seems to be with the tv signal. (the signal itself is fine, my tv works fine as it is)

Is my problem in my video card (should I get a faster one?) or should I get certain codec's or drivers?

Edit: it works a bit faster with the lasted Hauppage drivers installed, but any tips would be welcome!

Any help would be great!
