[QUOTE="knutinh, post: 24884, member: 14776"] Area: TV MP Version: 0.1.3.0 Skin: default Windows Version: XP professional SP2 CPU Type: intel Northwood 2.8 HT Memory: 1GB dual channel ddr Motherboard Chipset: intel 865 Video Card: Gigabyte nvidia geforce 6600GT passive Video Card Driver: 81.85 Video Card Resolution: 1680 x 1050 @60p (monitor) / 576 x 720 @50i (nvidia custom timings) (tv) Video Render Type: VMR9 renderless Video Codec Type & Version: Nvidia purevideo 1.02.177 Audio Codec Type & Version: unshure TV Card: Terratec T^2 TV Card Type: DVB-T TV Card Driver: Beta BDA 2.1.0.10 TV Card: Saphire theatrix 550 pro TV Card Type: analog PAL cable, hardware MPEG2 TV Card Driver: ATI Theater 550 Pro TV Tuner Drivers - 6.14.10.102 Optional Log: Optional References: Using Silverstone lc 16m-s with iMon VFD and iMon PAD remotecontrol. My Sapphire theatrix (= ATI 550 pro analog tv-tuner with mpeg2 encoder) produces a much poorer picture in MediaPortal than using the Powercinema software that accompanied the card. Anyone else observe this? I tried using Graphedit to find out what was going on, but couldnt inspect Powercinema. One of the filters when using MP had a parameter set to NTSC, when I have setup my system for PAL. Dunno if that is the problem. Problems: Little green dots in the bottom 1/3 of the picture. Picture is panned too far down (last line of text is invisible, while there is a 5" black border on the top of the picture). My idea is that the capture card finds 625 tv-lines (PAL), while my desktop is setup for 576 lines (PAL, active lines), and somehow the last lines are chopped at the bottom, rather than scaled or symmetrically chopped. By the way, I have played with all picture format settings in MP and the graphic card drivers. It doesnt work because its the video stream in to MP that is affected it seems. best regards Knut Inge [/QUOTE]
