[QUOTE="Matty, post: 864465, member: 28497"] Ray, Yes I did try disabling all plugins and still the problem persisted. I then tried installing the latest BIOS for the board. This also had no effect. In frustration I decided to re-install, but I remained unconnected from the net and made sure that all drivers installed were from the provided instation CD. Long story short, I now can play Live and recorded TV within MediaPortal with nearly perfect flat lines (shift 1) and minimal dropped frames. What is interesting I still occasionally get the same heavy stutter when using UNC, but by switching to RTSP, it plays [I]almost[/I] perfectly. It is a bit disappointing that I couldn't actually nail down the exact problem, but at least I now have a working client. Taking the simplest approach possible, I installed SAF 6.0.9 unlocked and set the codec as ffdshow. No sure why but PDVD did not get installed this time. As it is working I will try to keep my hands off it... Many thanks for all suggestion. Cheers [/QUOTE]
