[QUOTE="mrceolla, post: 694002, member: 109048"] Hi Tony, Thank you for those tips. I had installed the Windows SDK last night in hopes that would enable Connect to Remote Graph to work. It didn't, but it did install a 32bit and 64bit version of proppage.dll onto my machine. So I just registered them via regsrv32: regsrv32 "c:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v7.1\bin\proppage.dll" regsrv32 "c:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v7.1\bin\x64\proppage.dll" ...and I can now connect to the MediaPortal graph. I had to run both MediaPortal and GraphStudio as admin. Now what am I looking for to identify the source of my problem? I can see the decoders being used, which is great. But what more can I learn from this graph? I will look into ReClock and MP Audio Renderer. Do you recommend one over the other? Can you further explain the "display frame rate reported is a bit out" comment? Is Meas rfsh the measured refresh rate of the video or the monitor? Is there anything I can do to lower render time short of buying a new video card? Is there a way I can confirm if my video card's hardware is being used in rendering? Or is it always used in video playback nowadays? Are you saying the BFG 7950 GT OC 512MB is not beefy enough for smooth video playback? If not, what is the lowest level Nvidia card that will? Thank you so much for your continued help! Mike I can not seem to locate this information. Could you please steer me to it? [/QUOTE]
