MP2 on owner build PC.
Nvidia GeForce 210 driver version 341.95 1gb
8gb ram
Windows 10 64bit
Samsung TV running at 60hz and 1080p
TV card AverMedia A188 PCIe Pure DVB-T driver version 1.3.64.76
I have had to move to Windows 10 due to hard drive issues and now I need a new Media centre as I used to use WMC.
I have installed MP2 and have just finished configuring the tuners and I have scanned for channels all successful.
My EPG is working great however, when I hit up live TV I have problems with video flickering.
The flicker is whole screen going to black and back to video feed in maybe 100ms or less. And the flicker is random. sometimes it is once or twice every second. and it can extend out as far as 10 - 15 seconds without a flicker. I have searched through the forums and cannot find anything that might suggest the same issue.
Just to note, I did a side by side install of MP2 and WMC on windows 8.1 a month ago (WMC worked flawlessly in this configuration) and had the same problem.
Could it be something to do with the codecs that MP2 uses and WMC had a MS proprietary CODEC? I admit I don't have a lot of experience with Codecs.
I have tried some changes relating to resolution/refresh rate and scaling but the problem persists.
Just to reiterate WMC was smooth and silky on Windows 8.1 with the exact same hardware configuration but MP2 had problems.
I am really keen on getting MP2 working as it looks and feels really nice. EPG works great, timeshifting is fine. Its just the darn live TV problem.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
JD
