    ---------------------------------------------

    First of all , I do have discovery channel also in HD which works perfectly.

    but on eurosport Hd and History HD
    On both sound is OK
    I do have some form of a picture, but i seem to get only the upper left part zoomed in (10%) of the full picture and it looks very interlaced.

    However, when I record from that channel ,and play with VLC, it shows me full hd , and when i play with standard windows media player it shows the same as when watching live..
    So it must be codec related, but cant figure it out :(

    Anyone has this problem and resolved it or knows what I am missing ?

    Thanks!

    screenshot, on the left mediaportal, which shows only a small upper part of the stream.
    On the right screen, is vlc using the same stream showing the whole picture..
    I have run out of options to get it right..

    so for a change someone get me in the right direction :)

    just to be absolutely sure.. i did a clean reinstall of my tvserver on 1.0.2 version ..

    no effect..

    also i noticed that the eurosport and history HD stream doesnt show me the coreavc icon in the taskbar
    the stream seems to be mpga ? (according to VLC)

    The discovery channel that is working on HD, doesnt show the coreavc icon either, it shows the nvidia purevideo icon .. ?
    but the stream is mpgv according to VLC.

    shouldn it use the codec set for H264 , weird..

    maybe that gives someone an idea :)

    errrrrr...

    when nowhere in mediaportal configuration NVIDIA is set as codec for anything..
    it still shows the nvidia icon in the taskbar when playing the working discovery HD channel.

    for the channels not working it doesnt show any icon ..
