[QUOTE="Blutarsky, post: 61388, member: 21647"] I've started using PureVideo only and looked perfect. Then I thought I could improve image sharpening using ffdshow. I've read that using ffdshow, it pulls out the best from Purevideo. Anyway I wanted to give it a try and installed ffdshow following the instructions here [url]http://htpcnews.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=20763[/url]. BTW it states that you must disable hardware acceleration...and I did it. Is this why CPU now is 90%??? Now the question. Did anyone tried PureVideo With or without ffdshow and found any difference? What is the best combination? In my case I'm using a nVidia FX Go 5200 that apparently benefits partially from PureVideo, but it does. Using also ffdshow it looks even better and at least I can sharpen the image. But CPU jumps to 90% and maybe losing hardware accelleration..... Would like to exchange impressions..... [/QUOTE]
