[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 290732, member: 76888"] Hi, I have a similar setup to you GA-MA78GM-S2H / HVR2200 / XP SP2 / Mediaportal RC2 I use the PDVD8 Ultra 1830 Codec If I use the ATI Display drivers from the gigabyte site (v8.457) then TV1,2,3 + HDDEMO are perfect with hardware accleration. But I get decoding errors with C4,TVNZ6+7. If I go on to disable hardware accleration i get perfect on all channels, but occasionally get jitters when the CPU hits 90-100%. If I load the latest Catalsyt 8.7 Suite drivers then i my XP crashes If I load ATI Catalyst 8.8Beta Suite drivers then i can decode all channels using hardware acceleration, however i get frequent video glitches making it useless for watching more than 5 minutes of tv. In answer to your question - I do not find that Mediaportal RC2 behaves differently compared to RC1 with DVB-T. I find it is better for me. [B]I can scan analog just fine using XP & MP RC2[/B] I have a fresh install of XP Pro SP2 HVR2200 Driver download from the UK website Catalyst Drivers from gigabyte.com (v8.475) Mediaportal RC2 If I click scan it takes ages and picks up about 350 odd channels, hence i just added Prime TV manually. I myself wonder if SP3 is the problem, when i had SP3 the mediaportal install crashed, then when i got it installed the tvserver configuration program didn't like starting and crashed a few times.
