Sorry, this is not completely true. I was actually impatient to run the test for more than 2min. It is true that it takes 100% CPU usage but after 1-2min it jumps down to 17-27% SDTV and 20-45% HDTV using CyberLink. which is awsome. When I use CoreAVC for HDTV, CPU is 32-45% and picture quality is great. I am using SAF 5 and...

I can now confirm that h.264 codec is used for mpeg4 TV streams. So obviously changing the other codecs had no effect on deinterlacing. Thanks for the help.

I would, but I don't know how to clip off 10 seconds of video from an AVI. So, when I followed that guide, I understood (possibly wrongly) that if you install PowerDVD9 (like I did) you don't need to install MPC Video Decoder because PowerDVD handles H.264/AVC/VC-1. But since I was having problems ... and also I read something...

I had to set Windows to think I only had 2 speakers, now I can switch my amp to any mode rather have it just say multich in the whole time. This means I still get 5.1 etc. if that source is, but if the source is only 2.0 (TV etc.) then I can initiate one of the amps listening modes.

In a more recent attempt with a newer iTunes, I was also able to set iTunes to play fullscreen and get protected content to play. It didn't seem that volume/skip and other controls worked through the iTunes plug-in of MediaPortal. I probably just have to map those controls directly for the iTunes application when it is on top.

That's wrong, movie is about 13 secs long and there is no CAD program stuff in it. Sure you started the correct file? Renaming to .mkv is not an option as this is a recording created by TV Server from a DVB-S channel, yes, in europe.
