[QUOTE="MJGraf, post: 33075, member: 17886"] OK, S/W-Card support seems to be removed... So I went shopping to get a new Hauppauge PVR 500MCE, but unfortunately I'm still havng some problems... First Problem: TV without timeshift works (nearly) without problems (see below) - I can switch channels, record, ... When I swith on TV without timeshift and then switch on timeshift still everything seems to be OK. But when I change the channel with timeshift switched on, picture and sound start stuttering heavyly. Even if I switch back to the channel which originally worked, stuttering goes on. Only solution is: going back (at least) 15 seconds so that MP does not play what it's actually recording, but what it recorded 15 seconds ago. Result: stuttering is gone. If I go these 15 seconds ahead, stuttering again. I tried all I can imagine as solution: different codecs with or without hardware-acceleration, changing PCI latency in the bios or with the utility mentioned here in a thread about PVR 500 with Via Kt266 (now all the latencies are 0, only my nvidia 6200 and my Belkin Pre-N wlan have a latency of 32, which were originally 248)... Second Problem: Does ffdshow postprocessing only work when using ffdshow video codec? Don't want to use this codec because I paied money for my nvidia purevideo... But anyway want to see if there is an improvement by ffdshow... How can I determine if postprocessing is active? Is there also a tray icon as if i use the ffdshow video-codec? can't find one, only the nvidia purevideo icon... Besides I cannot chose ffdshow video-codec in MP. Doesn't appear on the list although it's installed. Chosing ffdshow audio codec works. Windows Mediaplayer uses ffdshow video codec automatically... Looks like my codecs are somehow messed up... Any Help appreciated! And thanks to you all for this great piece of software - keep up the good work!
