[QUOTE="huckster2, post: 268099, member: 75335"] The ATI chipset has proved to have problems with the Freeview HD transmissions here in New Zealand. It will display them fine, but when you try to change channels from one format to another (720p to 1080i etc) it will succeed some of the time but then fail on others. Once it fails, things have to be restarted. There have been many instances of people moving from ATI cards to NVidia (8500GT or better) as a consequence. I am using CoreAVC's codec to get around this at the moment but this basically pushes the decoding onto the CPU (an AMD 2350 which seems to cope). Am keeping my fingers crossed that new drivers will resolve the problem, but my patience is running out. :( [/QUOTE]
