[QUOTE="thinksnow, post: 46410, member: 11265"] Area: My TV MP Version: mediaportal-svn-04-09-2006--18-16 Skin: BlueTwo Windows Version: XPPro SP2 CPU Type: Intel P4 2.8E Memory: 1.5Gb PC3200 --> 2x512 Samsung TCCC + 2x256 GeIL Motherboard Chipset: MSI 865PE Neo2 Video Card: NVidia FX5200 (dual VGA-out) Video Card Driver: 8.1.9.8 Video Card Resolution: 1280x1024 (monitor 1) 800x600 (monitor 2) Video Render Type: (default) Video Codec Type & Version: Mpeg2Dec Filter (also tried DScaler Mpeg2 Video Decoder) Audio Codec Type & Version: MPEG/AC3/DTS/LPCM Audio Decoder TV Card: Hauppauge PVR-250 TV Card Type: TV Card Driver: 1.18.21.22266 Synopsis: I upgraded from RC2 to RC3 and immediately to SVN 4-9. At the same time, I swapped the HTPC to an analog 32" (S-video in) from my Sony 50" HDTV (VGA-in) and I switched cards back to the FX 5200 which I'd used before my 6800. All of my previously recordered TV plays fine. There are issues, sure (all shows display current date and time where they used to show the date and time of recording), but we were able to watch recorded shows just fine. The problem is live TV. For a period of ~30 minutes, I had no signal, despite having mapped (and re-mapped) the channels and checking all the settings time and again. I rebooted three times, too, over the course of my efforts. I had no picture whatsoever (recorded TV still shows/plays, though). Eventually, I must have tweaked something, because the settings listed above gave me a live TV picture again, but now it's grainy/heavily pixilated. I know it's not an actual signal problem because I plugged the coax directly into my TV and it's fine, but when it's in the PVR-250, it's grainy. So my problem is poor picture quality for live TV with this build. [/QUOTE]
