Well so far I was unable to use my tv-card with mediaPortal... will have to look into this problem soon.
So yes I was unable to view the missing freeview channels with the avermedia tv application.
I will try my outdoor antenna to see if it's better.

I came across a USA weather service (WX.com - powered by meteorlogix) that doesn't seem to mind (so far) that we take the current weather graphic for most (as far as I know) cities in USA - just use your zipcode. I used the following URL http://www.wx.com/partnership/sticker.cfm?zip=74112 and was able to get a small graphic for...

Hi,
I want to put multiple episodes (50min) on a dvd.
I was wondering what compression settings I should use to maintain as much quality as possible. They're supposed to be viewed on a plasma tv.
Currently they're recorded with "high quality" (+/- 3 gig / episode).
How many should I put on a DVD with what compression...

Looking at this article, do you think ATI will open up the API or provide some source code so open source developers might be able to use the GPU - that is IF (that is a BIG IF- people) ATI will open up and provide opensource developers some help, after all it might actually help sell some of their video cards! But it would be MUCH...

i looked for a mixer option for ages in ffdshow - i must be going blind!
anyway found that and was happily getting 5.1 sound mixed from stereo - however for some reason it seems to make the video go choppy - going back to stereo makes the video fine again.
cpu usage is only 20% or so..
who knows *shrug*

Hey there guys, i recently got a xpertvision 6600, and am using component out to my sony hdtv, but for nearly all resolutions i use, i think the refresh rate is either too low or too high, (the screen keeps refreshing, and i can see the screen keep flashing) which gives me a huge headache after a couple of minutes, do you guys happen...

Hi all,
I tried playing video files with my new nvidia 6200 on TV using s-video output and the system froze. If I disable the tv output, everything seems to work fine. Only when I connect to my LG 30" HDTV, it freezes. Be it a dual view or a single TV output.
I have directx 9.0c installed and the latest 78.01 drivers from...

You always need a telephone line. It is possible to rent the line from the adsl provider but, I don't think that's a good choice:
KPN belbudget plan about 9,67 a month
Line rent with adsl provider about 9,30 a month
If the voip for some reason doesn't work with the belbudget plan you can stil make phone calls
Good sites to...

Thanks :-) Give it a try! Some things worth mentioning:
You need to create your own Virtualdub template file.. This is performed by doing a manual conversion in Virtualdub and then store the jobs file and then do some modifications to the file.
1. Open a test MPEG2 file in Virtualdub
2. Clear the job list in Virtualdub (F4)
3...

Well, I have two cards with separate tuners, both DVB but one for sattelite and none for cable.
If a computer is ment to place it near the TV then it has to be very silent and ended up with mobile technology and a processor that would have to run at top speed if it had to decode a mpeg stream. So these cards have a dedicated...

I have been meaning to thank you guys for a long time, i have just never gotten around to it. Sorry.
I never did find any dvb-c cards but i came home with loads of other cool gadgets, including a mce remote which is the best thing i have bought for my computer in a long time.

I actually have gone back to MCE 2005 to be honest. I couldn't get my dual dvicos working for the life of me, and Xvids would continously and unstobbly skip. I am no HTPC slouch (been at it for years and build htem commercially)

To get an RGB picture on your TV you need :-
(1) A video card that supports Interlaced output
(2) A Composite Sync signal
(3) Powerstrip
Cards like the Radeon allow you to switch on Interlacing and switch on Composite Sync. The composite sync option allows the standard Seperate Horizontal and Vertical syncs of the VGA...
