Thanks for advices, guess what, i remowed my internal CAM from second dvb card, voila! HD channel is playing as like normal channels, no jittering.
Only thing is that pay channels doesent show now :)
I bought Terratec's "Cinergy CI USB", it shows paychannels with terratec's own software "home cinema..." etc. But doesent work with Media Portal.

Any one have knowledge about external USB CAM readers, how to get them work in Media Portal and can them share CI card for both dvb cards same time?

I use all the defaults and have not had any problems with media.
In fact I am not sure why I would want to tweak the Codecs?

Are you using tv-cards and watch hd-channels?

I did full cleaning and reinstallation of 1.0.2 and still doesent work with default codecs.
Normal tv-channels ok, but paychannels are jamming including recordings.
HD channels is jittering badly with default codec "PowerDVD H.264 (Terratec)", coming with tv-cards.
I have some old scheduled recording from HD channel and i can play that without problems, why can't stream then??
I tried also to record now from hd channel, but it was on playback as jittering as it is from direct stream.

Just how hard this can be to get some channels to work as they should...
I have here 2000€ equipments for media portal and can't watch even tv properly :rolleyes:

Yes i use Video capture cards (click my system below my picture). Sounds like you are using Vista and MP 1.02. However I use XP and MP 1.0 so not the same.
