    Last week all of a sudden I could not watch SDTV channels anymore.. tried everything to solve it, ended into a complete clean reinstall of Vista, including all essential and recommended updates.
    Clean install of March 14 Mediaportal TV server and SVN (later versions report many bugs in TV).
    Clean install of Cyberlink Powerdvd Ultra deluxe 7.3, for the H264 and Mpeg2 hardware codecs
    Clean install of ffdshow and AC3 filter and Haali mediasplitter

    But after this complete system rebuild, big disapointment.. it has not helped. SDTV is terrible is not even watcheable, it does show some still pictures, but that is not what TV is about.

    Movies on my HDD and HD channels that use H264 work fine, So my conclusion is that the Cyberlink Mpeg2 decdoer is no good anymore, or that it interferes with something in Vista.

    Anybody here that knows what this can be?

    Thanks

    Problem solved a few days ago.. it was BAD HARDWARE!, new coax cable (15 meters), new decently shielded plugs and signal amplifier did the trick.

    No mediaportal problem..
