Synopsis:
I have updated from v0.1.0.7 to v0.1.0.8 and am now experiencing a problem when wathing TV with MediaPortal. First, the picture seems quite alright, though a bit unsharp, but after about 10-15 seconds it starts to pulse and that causes the picture to pixelate and it's not watchable at all.

Any ideas, anyone? Could this be a configuration issue or is it a TV engine bug?

    Thanks Avalon!

    I will try this and get back with a status report in about 2 weeks when I hopefully have Media Portal up and running again with the same configuration as now... ;) *sigh* Lots of gaming config with images, texts and stuff... but I will try to keep these settings as far as possible. :)

    Hi,

    my PVR 350 works flawless. Picture quality is great. Be sure you use the latest drivers from shspvr, you can find them on their FTP (2_2_22301). I have some problems with autotune, but i normally enter the channels directly, so i do not bother much currently.

    HTH, Flip.

    Tried a clean installation but the pulsing picture still shows up. Will now try to update my drivers.
