[QUOTE="jjnaude, post: 144009, member: 49583"] OK. Doesn't look like using PCI graphics cards is a common thing to do (and it shouldn't be :ooops: ). But, my low boredom threshold got the best of me and I tried it. So, just in case any other newbies run into the same question: It works! Installed a GeForce 5200Fx PCI card yesterday and after some fiddling with codecs the TV playback is now smooth, both in a window and fullscreen. I'm unsure whether this will work for HDTV (might have issues with insufficient bandwidth on the PCI bus) but for SD it works just fine. Thanks to the mediaPortal team for a GREAT system! H [/QUOTE]
