Hi all,
Here is what I found working wrt codec etc to improve picture quality, in particular for sports:
- Use ATI Avivo codec for MPEG2
- Use Cyberlink PDVD for h264
- Make sure "wait for v-sync" is enabled
- Calibrate refresh rate to be a multiple of 25HZ, i.e. 50Hz or 75Hz
- Set ffdshow raw filter as post-processor (unfortunatly...

Just register the filter (by clicking the file 'register_Sky2PCAVSrc.bat' included in the compressed archive), and select skystar2 card on the configuration dialog of MP.

Hi,
Is-it possible to see a channel encode in H264 but not encrypted with MP ? (canal plus sport in evening).
Thanks

I think there's a list of the specs of both cards on the leadtek site. From what I remember, there werent any massively significant differences. I use the S, and have no real problems with it. Sometimes MP TV Engine 0.2 seems to have a problem where it says the card is in use, although it isnt, but a restart of MP fixes that...

Hi, I added those options. The newest vmr9 settings change the resizing algorithm to take advantage of your underlying video hardware. Your results may vary. Ideally, you should turn on non-square mixing and choose gaussian quad filter. There is currently not any checking to make sure your video card can actually implement the...

Does anyone notice ant difference within MP when playing with antialiasing / anisotropic filtering?

My LCD-TV doesn't have a 720 line mode, so I'm not sure if forcing 720p50 is a good idea.
Since I had only installed the driver, I took advantage of the situation by installing the complete Catalyst suite 8.9.
I have also updated to MP 1.0 RC3. I am starting as close to the default settings and only changing them step by step.
So...

Analog 4:3 and 16:9 are the same resolution (Such as 720x576 for pal), only displayed differently.
I don't think s-video/composite interfaces have aspect ratio information, so there is in fact no way for an analog PVR card (Or especially MP above it) to know the AR.

The MCE Standy Tool ( MST ) could help you with the reinit of the card without using the TVServer3.
Got a SkystarHD which is hardwarewise similar to the TT3200, i am using the TT3200 driver for it.
Since i can not get it to work proper with the latest TVS3 i am playin around with the build in TVS2.
This works really nice for now -...

Glad it is working for you now.
Just FYI, you should be able to delete the channels you are not interested in within
the MP configuration and not see them at all. Depending on how you have
things setup you may also need to remove them from your SD lineup too.

This is a common fault with the 0.2x
First thing to perform is the following.
Make sure you perform multiple scans. One at 7 AM, one at 3PM and one at 9PM. This is so that you pick up the maximum channels that were off-air during the previous scan.
Even after the above, you will find you are missing a number of channels...

All of my friend, me included complain about this. It makes things less orderly and it's harder to see what's going on at the moment.

Iirc, the crop settings are tuner-specific. With that in mind, it should be possible to use multiple tuners to handle the SD / HD channels. With a tuner dedicated to the HD channels, it should be possible to crop those independently of the SD channels. Keep in mind that the ABC HD feed is only 720 though.
Hopefully someone with...

This is exactly what the digital Sky Satellite PACE boxes do.
