[QUOTE="kamrat, post: 21145, member: 12967"] Ok - I think I can help out here. What your father is worried about is a very big concern for me as well. Sports with only 25 updates (I live in PAL county) per second is next to unwatchable in my opinion. I am a broadcast professional and to me all this talk about fields and frames makes perfect sense. You are both right in the way you describe the phenomenon. I also had this concern before building my HTPC and I even called Hauppague in Sweden to try and get an answer but I did not manage to explain the problem in a way they understood. There is a major problem in trying to get computer people to grasp this strange television thing. Anyway - enough talk about this. I now have a HTPC with both a Hauppague DVB-T card and a Leadtek analog card with hardware MPEG2-codec. Both cards produce an excellent 25 frame/50 field image! The key to getting this displayed on your tv/monitor/projector is to use the right codec and deinterlace settings. I can easily make the picture "strobe" by changing codec or settings. I am using the Nvidia Pure video Decoder but I have also managed to get nice results using the built in codec from Dscaler. The video is displayed right both on my projector that is hooked up to my VGA output and on my CRT-tv connected with S-VIDEO. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
