[QUOTE="prodeo, post: 291187, member: 81410"] Hi everybody, I'm new to MP and this is actually my first post. I've set up MP so that everything works well, besides live TV. As ManLord had pointed out the quality is bad and the whole system slows down remarkably, almost like using a capture card with MPEG2 SW-encoder. Can anyone help me with this question? I've installed the latest drivers for my capture card (haven't installed the software which comes with it though - is that necessary? In the TV settings in MediaPortal Configuration I've set MPV for MPEG2 playback (the only other option was ffdshow, which is not good for MPEG2 from what I've heard). Would I get another decoder if I actually installed the software which came with the capture card? Many thanks for your help and the great software!!!
