[QUOTE="n0rm4an, post: 1156710, member: 123420"] Hi, thanks for your fast answer. I'm afraid I cant. But let me be more clear about this. When I plug the DECO to the TV directly, the image is very sharp, It's sharp almost like a BD 25GB. I tried to take a picture with my dslr and it dont reflect the qualitty I'm talking about, and I dont know any other way to capture the TV (not PC) screen. When I connect the DECO to the Colossus on a PC, and the PC to the same TV, and open mediaportal, or record with the ArcSoft ShowBiz, the TV looks like a 720p 4GB movie compared to a FULL 50GB BD, or something like that, I hope you understand me. In the ShowBiz -> Capture -> Format -> Video Encoder -> Bit Rate (up to 20 M) and Peak Bit Rate (uo to 24 M) in Variable Average Mode. If you want I could capture the properties screen. To confirm this, some time ago, I recorded some Shows with ShowBis and TVServer, and the info of the .TS files confirm this. Ok, you dont have to agrre with me that is FAR lower, 20 vs 13.5 is 48% more bitrate, and 24 vs 21 is more than 14%, but remember that these are the peaks in one pass on the fly encoding, the average still is 13.5 and 20, let say WAY lower? ;) Dont get me wrong, I'm using MP since 0.23 (I think it was .023 or so) and I love IT (some times not so much), I tried to move to MP Cousin's XBMC/KODI a few times, but I never stop using MP, centralized mysql DB and Yatse, to name a few are great things, but Live TV and Trailers on local disk are too. Maybe in the near future MPODI have the best of both worlds :D:D:D:D. I have the HD-PVR 1 5 or 6 years ago, and whe I change to the Colossus 3 or 4 years ago the Quality improvement was very noticeable. The HD-PVR has bit rates similar to the Colossus 2 (I know that in VBR the Colossus 2 has 21 Mb peaks), but may be, because Hauppauge uses a new chip that improves the quality and/or the profile settings. Thanks for all you time, and all your work with the Hauppauge HD-PVR family. I'm a big fan. [/QUOTE]
