Just download the latest drivers off the DVICO site, FusionRemote 3.2 - also includes a configuration ap, so you can tweak as you like and configure more applications (WinAmp, MCE2005, PowerDVD already included).

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.

Hi Guys -
MP currently can't use technologies like Cleartype, well it can but my experiments with it so far haven't proved to be very useful (there are points in the code that can be changed to change the way that the font files are generated).
So what do you do to get rid of the harsh edges? Open the font .png files in an...

Do you have the problem with TV-output overscan settings is lost everytime you start the MedialPortal?
Try this reg tweak. It worked perfect for me :lol:
In regedit, search for "videoborder"
You'll find some keys like that :
NVZORAN.525@60Hz.videoborder
NV36ZORAN.525@60Hz.videoborder

Hi,
There are some quite interesting posts on other HTPC forums about this issue. It seems my "jerky" video from timeshifting live TV after doing some FBW/FFW could be related to this particular bug in DX9.0c. However, I don't have this problem when using the internal MPEG2 codec...

Bitbyte,
I'm glad you got your DTV to work. I'm not as fortunate. I've been trying to get MPExtuneCmd to work with a external program that changes channel via a IR Blaster, without any success.

Hi All!
I made a little program that allows you to visually export information from iTunes music library into several formats. At the moment, only m3u, pls, and xml are supported. With xml, a properly structured xml file is created and can be used in plugins or on the web.
Please test it out and tell me what you think
