I got stuck when trying to fix frame drops during watching live HD tv. There are about half of frames dropped (as reported thru Shift+F1).
Trying to nail down the issue I recorded a couple of minutes of tv and then played it back in MP. There are still frame drops when trying to play the recording in full screen mode. If I start MP in window mode, there are no drops, If I then increase window size to be near full screen, I see the drops again.
I tried both EVR/VMR9, Microsoft and CoreAVC codecs. There are no drops when playing 1080p video.
When I play recorded file in windows media player, the picture is perfect.
It has something to do with codecs configuration, but I don't understand why windows encoder works fine in windows media player, but not in Media Portal. I did validate with graphstudio that Microsoft Video Decoder is being used in media portal.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Is it indication that my integrated AVI built in card is not powerful enough?
