MP1 MP2 Converting DVD's DE
I've been using this http://www.divx.com/divx/windows/converter/ for a while now. No quality issues at all. The only thing I would complain about is the lack of dvr-ms support but that's easily worked around. You need to pay a little extra for the mpeg plugin but not much. I have used Dr DivX in the past but that gave me jerky...

MP1 MP2 Help with x264 DE
also (and kind of off-topic, sorry), CoreAVC is the best h/x.264 codec I've ever found. Efficient CPU usage, quality is fantastic. It ain't free, but it's definitely worth the asking price. If your computer is beefy enough to use VLC or ffdshow's h.264 decoder without dropped frames then CoreAVC might not be worth it (although I...

You could use the Hauppauge Tweak Tool to change a lot of settings on the pvr card. I'm not sure it has a gamma setting but at least I think you can change brightness/contrast. That would probably do.

Don't be puzzled looking at this graph. MPEG-2 transport files (.ts) can provide some sorts of MPEG-4 streams, including H.264 (see ISO/IEC 13818-1). And it appears Microsoft's splitter's not that bad. Now if it works don't touch anything ;)!

Hey, I finally solved this one! Start Windows Media Player, go to Tools/Options/Performance and set Connection speed to "Detect connection speed(recommended)". That did it for me. Also remember to set your output to primary display, and disable popup-blocker in Explorer.

MP1 MP2 Purevideo for WMV DE
For that to work you need a PureVideo compatible codec. Like Cyberlink's PowerDVD 7, for example. But again, that's not for WMV afaik. The drivers themselves should accelerate WMV, tho.
