[QUOTE="chesh, post: 380894, member: 88249"] Did you remember to map your channels? How are you blasting your STB or are you just hand changing channels at the moment? Can you preview a channel in the TV Server Config window on the channels tab and hand change the channels and see anything? You may have to change your decoders under Television in MP Config if you can see in the TV Server config, but not MP. WileE, you're the man. I played w/ the quality settings in ArcSoft and brought it down to 5 at first, but honestly, it looked like crap. But, I did notice there was just a slight stutter now when switching channels while the buffer was starting, but after about 2 secs it was fine. So, I upped it to 7.1, turned on Variable Peak for the bitrating and tried it again....This time quality was damn near perfect and there was about a 3 sec delay when a channel first gets changed to. I can deal with that. Between that setting and setting the 64k block size, it's just about perfect. BTW: I haven't played with any of the sound settings yet, as I'm setting up this whole HTPC in my bedroom w/ a 720p 32" TV as to not piss off the misses with having it all hooked up to my amp and whatnot on the main 42" 1080p TV. LOL. Sound is the last thing I have left to configure before this is pretty much setup w/ very few issues left. Thank you for all the help. [/QUOTE]
