[QUOTE="BigBuddha, post: 34525, member: 14670"] This really is not like looking at a signal that has had some noise or jitter removed, it is like on one hand all of the text and sharp edges (especially) are super well defined and crisp and couldn't look any better; and on the other hand all the same stuff looks blurry, smudged and has MUCH lower definition. You can see the same thing in the general PQ it's just easier to describe with edges and text and things like the STB's OSD etc. I have used Dscaler to view the card and initially it provided better results than MP when I was only using RC2 standard because of the following from the logfile. 21/01/2006 9:14:34 AM PlaneScene: video WxH : 768x576 21/01/2006 9:14:34 AM PlaneScene: video AR : 768:576 21/01/2006 9:14:34 AM PlaneScene: screen WxH : 628x330 but now that I have applied CVS 21/01/06 I get this: 23/01/2006 8:48:57 PM PlaneScene: video WxH : 768x576 23/01/2006 8:48:57 PM PlaneScene: video AR : 768:576 23/01/2006 8:48:57 PM PlaneScene: screen WxH : 1292x732 notice the difference in the last lines. So now MP is on an equal footing with Dscaler, but neither of them come anywhere close to the PQ when you inject the signal straight into the telly. If it were only a little bit different I woudln't worry but it is a HUGE difference, I wish I could take a sceen shot of both to show the difference. You would be amazed I am sure! At one stage I ran the signal into my software capture card a VSTREAM XPERT PCI 100 and apart from some additional noise that it added to the picture the PQ was almost identical to when I run the signal straight into the HDTV, surely that must mean that the Hauppage capture card is letting the team down in some way?? Maybe it isn't about resolution, maybe the Hauppage is compressing the stream too much. In fact now that I think of it, that is exactly what it looks like, like when a JPEG has been compress too much and starts to lose it's definition. Maybe that can lend a clue as to how it can be fixed it or maybe a card that can process at a higher bitrate than 12000 Kbits/sec with an average of 8000 ??? [/QUOTE]
