It should yes, bit you havent listed the rest of your hardware so we cant be sure.
The tvout comes with composite/svideo/component/dvi so plenty of connectors there. Just make sure you get the HDTV model otherwise itll only come with svideo out.

I agree. As it looks right now, even the 4350 tends to move the deinterlacing slider down towards bob. I really hate SW that thinks it's smarter than me :(
I got rid of jerky playback though.
I still think a good SW codec would be just fine for me. The proc can handle it no prob, but it seems none of the gfx cards I currently...

I've been selecting a LCD TV for a while now and ever since my selection began narrowing down, I've been having some questions...
I am not sure that there is a definitive answer to that question - it will depend upon the capabilities of the display itself. Some displays will only support the standard TV signals (480p, 576p, 720p ... and so on) through the HDMI input, while others may support the common PC resolutions as well (like 640x480, 1024x768, .... etc)...

I too have experienced this problem with amd apus. Try these three simple things in windows 7 as I believe it to be aero related. First, make sure all monitors are on the same frequency (I do this as a precaution, but it probably isn't necessary). Then right click on my computer and select advanced settings. Under 'Performance' select...

Hey All,
Os: Windows 7 64 bit
HTPC : MP version 1.1.8.0
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU 750 @2.67GHz
Motherboard: Asus...
the USB tuners don't re-initialise quick enough for MP when coming back on from standy/hibernate.
this means that you would need to close MP and then re-open it again for the tuner cards to kick in again.

ATi just released the new drivers and control center along with the new AVIVO video converter engine (X1000 series cards only).
If you have an X1000 series card and want to check out the accellerated video conversion give it a try. The support website is pretty busy at the moment because of all the downloads.

Here is a review of that Venset TS700A TV Lift equipped with IR remote and Bracket TS700.
I was looking for a TV lift solution mostly for more flexibility and better quality when enjoying passive 3D content.
In fact my Philips TV 55PUK7150/12 has quite a narrow vertical angle for optimal 3D quality.
That's notably an issue while...

Looks like a nice product.
I’m fond of them using PCI express. Not like the Dual card I have which has one tuner going through PCI and the other goes through USB2. This has caused me a few problems.

I realise this may sound strange at first, but I will explain. My Internet Service Provider has given its subscribers access to some local TV channels through our internet connection. We downloaded 'VideoLan VLC' - a small application that enables one to watch (and record) streamed media on ones' PC. All well and good.
This means...

Hello all,
I'm thinking of updating my HTPC to add a projector.
I currently use an old ATI 9700 pro with powerstrip, outputing a custom 1024x576i signal to an analog PAL TV (via custom VGA->SCART lead)
I want to add a projector in *addition* to this - so that I can use the TV for normal viewing and switch the projector on just...

Depending if you have to be able to switch, you could remove the delay in boot.ini (can be done in windows in case you don't know and easily put back).
I also have modified my bootskin with a mp bootskin and of course the machine logs on automatically (it's a dedicated HTPC).
On my desktop, I have put a screenshot of the MP home...

http://www.ebuyer.com/UK/product/108219 This tuner says it is compatible with MCE but the manufacturer and model arnt listed, should it work with mediaportal? I assume if it is MCE compatible it will have BDE drivers ?

Until cable card tuners are out I wouldn't count on anything from Digital Cable unless you record from the SVideo/audio outputs.

You remember correct: 25W, while the 4850 is 110W. Its huge difference! Now, what I also consider, is gaming capacity. While the 4550 gives 96 GFLOPS, the 4850 gives 1000. Of course there is other ways to check performance, but 10 times should count for something. Actually it is possible to get the 4850 as passive cooled, but still it...

Hi Callifo,
Thanks for your help. I bought a low profile GF5200 card on the weekend.
That solved all my problems (well, apart from the memory leak :lol: ).
Now timeshifting and recording is very smooth. I still want to do the other upgrades but at least the main problem is fixed.
Thanks again,
Marcus.

Hi all,
I have MP working almost perfectly now. There is only a slight stutter every so often, especially when time shifting...
So, I bough the Geforce GT520 and MP Avalon Skin runs a lot smoother now. Still not quiet as nice as my newer Intel Pentium G850 HTPC, but a lot smoother than with the Geforce 8300 IGP. So for around $50, this was definitely a very nice upgrade. Next step will be replacing the old 80GB System-HDD with a SSD...
