Hi,

Ive been using MediaPortal for a few weeks with various problems so thought id do a clean install to see if it was any better.

Im getting 100% CPU (on 1 core if enable both I get 50% on each) usage when MediaPortal has focus, even when just on the home screen..if I then click on the task manager so Media Portal looses focus it drops to nearly 0%..

After reading other posts I thought it was a codec problem so have just installed the NVIDIA codec but the problem still remains.

Also after a few minutes the TV is cutting out to a black screen and I have to use "End Task" to close it.

It was working fine all last night while recording 2 channels..this morning its very flaky.

Specs are:

Clean install XP SP2 all updates applied icluding the memory leak ones suggested on here.
MediaPortal RC4

PentiumD 830 2x3Ghz
2GB DDR2
Haupaugge Nova-T USB2
Haupaugge HVR1100
2x200G Sata HD
ATI X800XL
Dual Monitor (One is TV)

All running latest drivers.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Been trying for ages to get this running reliably

Thanks in advance.
