The driver I used = "NVTV single tuner PAL mediaportal working.rar" The other driver is newer but has the "gray screen" problem (dvxplore.sys). There is a topic covering that subject. If somebody has...

I found that if the images are bigger, they end up getting resized down on the tv and in the webinterface which I use frequently. So...

shanek It does, but if you swtch channels, the timestream buffer is deleted and a new one created, also the same if you close TV down.

This way you do it once, then you can sit in your couch starting a movie with just the remote control. It's what I call it, a workaround. Maybe some day someone has the time, interest and knowledge to implement it in MP. Maybe you? /Niclas

I actually just noticed that the Core AVC don't even use the GPU to decode the h.264 and I even managed to run the trailers I downloaded without problem on a Athlon XP 2000+ with a Nvidia 440MX card with absolutely no problem. :-) Next version of the Core AVC will even utilize GPU support... we will se about that.

Also remember that switchmode (PC, TV etc) power supplies are way more efficient than linear (big heavy iron core) power supplies, but they will still be lucky to reach aound 80% efficiency. This means that whatever power level you work out for your PC will also need at least 20% more from the power outlet to maintain. For...
