[QUOTE="Herbs28, post: 166614, member: 53603"] Last week I bought a WinTV Nova USB2 DVB-T stick and moved my main pc downstairs to the TV. I’m a bit disappointed with the results so far. I am using XP (sp2 with all patches and drivers) I have the same issue regardless of software and decoder, including my preffered Nvidia Pure. The same problem is also present using MythTV on Ubuntu.
