[QUOTE="seco, post: 487397, member: 54595"] There's a lot of problems with codecs when trying to watch TV channels in HD. CoreAVC seems to be only one that works decently, but it does lack DXVA. It's a known issue that MPC-HC codec doesn't work, and I believe this is a problem in the codec itself. It still would be my choice. And PDVD 9 cannot be used anymore. Lately I tried Arcsoft H.264 codec but when changing from (playing) SD channel to HD channel, zapping failed (picture just freezed, I still can stop playing). However Arcsoft codec works if I first stop the SD channel and then start HD channel. It doesn't matter what SD codec I use. I also tried ATI Avivo 9.6 codec for H.264 TV. With the same result that MPC-HC gives (tiny "ActiveMovie" window or something shows up, no video can be seen..) Seems like we are in a bad spot when it comes to H.264 decoding and live TV :( [b]TV-Server Version[/b]: 1.0.2 [b]MediaPortal Version[/b]: 1.0.2 [b]MediaPortal Skin[/b]: StreamedMP [b]Windows Version[/b]: Vista SP2 32-bit [b]CPU Type[/b]: Intel E8200 2.66GHz [b]HDD[/b]: OCZ Core SSD 32GB [b]Memory[/b]: Kingston 4GB 800MHz [b]Motherboard[/b]: Asus P5E-VM HDMI [b]Video Card[/b]: ATI Radeon HD4850 [b]Video Card Driver[/b]: Catalyst 9.6 [b]Sound Card[/b]: ATI HDMI [b]Sound Card AC3[/b]: AC3Filter [b]Sound Card Driver[/b]: [b]1.
