[QUOTE="HomeY, post: 292350, member: 68365"] I'm so totally lost atm that i hope someone can point me in some direction where to look. Here's the problem: I've upgraded to RC2 last weekend. Before the upgrade things were running pretty smooth except for some freezing picture problems while watching tv, but that looks to be a HDD problem under Vista (when the picture freezes i hear the HDD spin off). After the install of RC2 everything works great again except for the TV picture quality. The problem is really good visible when i'm watching RTL7 (for the Dutchies) or CNBC / Bloomberg, because those channels have the scrollbar on the bottom. So, the picture quality is pretty good, but the scrollbar are kinda 'blurry'. I also had this problem with the RC1 version, but after using the PowerDVD 8 SP Video decoder, it was gone and the scrollbars were very good readable. So i configured all codecs the same way i had when i was using RC1 but the scrollbars still look blurry / fading and i'm almost getting drunk trying to read them :S. I've tried different codecs (ffdshow / MPV / PDVD8) but the result stays the same. when using ffdshow i've also enabled / disabled every option i was using (Blur & NR, Sharpen, Resize & Aspect). Tried using VMR9 and EVR, no difference between those. Tried all deinterlace mode options, but that also didn't work. Current TV codec configuration (which was the same i was using on RC1): MPEG-2 Video decoder: Cyberlink Video/SP Decoder (PDVD8) H.264 Video decoder: CoreAVC Video Decoder Audio decoder: Cyberlink Audio Decoder (PDVD8) LATM AAC audio decoder: MONOGRAM AAC Decoder Audio renderer: Realtek HDMI Output (ATI HDMI) Deinterlace mode: Best Since i'm no expert with those settings i hope someone has any idea how i can sharpen up the image so that the scrollbars look good and sharp again and if i'm looking in the wrong direction. And off course if someone knows the solution for the picture freezes which are (for about 90% sure) produced by HDD activity under Vista, i would be really happy 2 !! Tnx in advance! [/QUOTE]
