TV Card Driver[/b]: CD version 3.4a [b]MPEG2 Video Codec[/b]: DScaler Codec [b]MPEG2 Audio Codec[/b]: MPA Decoder Filter [b]Power Supply[/b]: 430W Hi, I have the following problem when using MediaPortal (which is, apart from this, really comfortable - thanks!): After some time of watching TV the live TV playback begins to flicker, i.e. the screen alternates between the video and a black screen. Usually, this only concerns part of the picture, sometimes just about the upper third, sometimes almost the whole picture flickers. Mostly, it gets worse when I continue to watch TV anyway. Opening a window, such as the mini-EPG (press return), usually causes less of the picture to flicker as long as it stays open. The black flicker is not rectangular but the bottom end (it always begins at the top most of the screen) looks somewhat "frayed" (in case this is important). Usually this occurs after some time of watching but changing channels frequently seems to limit the time the picture is OK even more (I have the impression that the (original) aspect ratio of the TV video or the change of this also plays a role). The same problem also occurs when watching video files (DivX) but I have only noticed it when pausing the video (so far). I have attached the log of a "session" in which this problem occurs. Thanks in advance, Sven [edit]Fixed typo in subject[/edit] [/QUOTE]
