[QUOTE="mpadam, post: 389237, member: 89459"] I also had lots of problems with DVD navigation, or at least in finding a setting that resulted in reasonable de-interlacing and usable navigation. BTW, I didn't experiment with audio decoders because I only want stereo and the standard MP decoder works fine for me. Here's what I found, YMMV... Platform: Windows XP Pro, SP3, fully up to date with all patches, English MP 1.0.0.0 Video: nVidia 6200TC. (Why? I want dual DVI output and passive cooling and a single slot design. It works perfectly and the card cost 8 Euros on eBay!) Dual screen, MP on "second screen" I run a VNC server on the "first screen", so my setup is a bit strange in some regards. So.... Standard MP decoder ("out of the box") -------------------------------- Navigation is a disaster. Approx 30% of DVDs give strange side effects or just give black screen during navigation. WAF = 0 De-interlacing is perfect. Better than all other decoders tried(!) Standard MP decoder with EVR -------------------------------- Unstable on my system. From what I could see the navigation was slightly better. Intervideo WinDVD -------------------------------- Navigation is perfect. De-interlacing is a disaster on all possible settings. Complete mess on sources originally shot for TV. PowerDVD -------------------------------- Navigation does not show cursor but otherwise works. WAF = 0 De-interlacing is OK. I have this one DVD that is very strange and only MP plays it perfectly. On all other DVDs the result is correct. nVidia PureVideo -------------------------------- Navigation is perfect. De-interlacing is OK. I have this one DVD that is very strange and only MP plays it perfectly. On all other DVDs the result is correct. Frame rate is noticeably higher. CPU load is lower. Also TV is noticeably better quality (less noisy, even without using the "noise reduction", or am I imagining this?) with higher frame rate. So, for me PureVideo won the contest. I bought it, the bronze edition costs USD19.99 which is, let's be honest, peanuts (how much did the rest of your system cost!?!) [/QUOTE]
