[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1298973, member: 141969"] :( Yes, I cannot explain that either. The problem may not be related to the refresh rate, but one needs to investigate different possibilities to (hopefully) find the cause of the problem. De-interlacing is a particular problem, because there seem to be several places where de-interlacing settings exist. The second screen shot from [USER=128337]@joecrow[/USER] shows six different de-interlace settings, and my elderly Nvidia graphics adapter has its own settings for de-interlacing. With so many settings, it is not easy to find the optimum combination. :( MP consists of two parts: [LIST] [*]The [b]MP client[/b], which is the visible face of MP, and which runs on the PC connected to your screen. [*][b]TV Server[/b], which is a background service that runs all of the time, and which is responsible for waking the PC, recording a programme, and then sleeping or hibernating the PC when the recording is finished. TV Server can run on the PC connected to the screen, or run on a separate PC (possibly in a different room) where it acts only as a server (not an MP client).
