Quality Ned 1, 2 and 3 HD (1 Viewer)

How do I enable Vista Aero (it's new for me....)? I can't judge the improvement of Nederland HD: my little son is watching a DVD....!! I'll get back on that later!

You did, by getting the score to 5.9.

I recall i am using an old evr.dll (Enhanced Video Renderer) for a Grey scale issue. I will test the codecs again using the Vista SP2 dll. Maybe then it will be smooth.

Doornjoostje,

I've just took a look at Nederland HD. I think it's much better, have to test more this day (Tour de France this after noon).

I really thank you for your advice. Two more things are fixes now!!!! I never could use the EVR (Direct show control) but now I can enable this!!! I was always using the VMR9 because of judder in my MKV files (especially when there is a lot of action in the screen), this problem is over now!!!
Allso I can now change channels from Nederland HD to an SD channel!!

If you were a woman I should have kissed you...!!!

Greetings from a rainy Zwolle....

Peter

Doornjoostje,

Do you have Nederland 1, 2 en 3 HD smooth? All my other channels are perfect, inclusive Discovery HD.

I never heard of Vista Aero.... I looked up and I saw a rating of 1.0. There was a line 'new hardware found' and I updated the rating. Now it is 5,9. Is Aero now enabled? Thanks for your advice already!!

How is it possible when I change channel from Nederland HD to another channel my systems hangs. Example: I look Nederland 3 HD and change it to RTL 4, my screen stays black but I hear the audio from RTL 4.

Well I noticed this too. Using the powerdvd v8 codec is not smooth at all. The signal is 1080i so i guess this codec does not do deinterlacing very well. Powerdvd V9 codec is better but has the same issues. The Arcsoft codec seems to be better but when i use this coded I can not switch to SD channels (MP locks up).
Using the software decoder from CoreAVC produced the best image and deinterlacing, but it requires a fast CPU to play smooth < 2.8ghz cpu.

I think I don't want to use software decoding. My videocard is (in my opinion!) powerfull enough for hardware decoding? (Asus nVidea 9600 GT Silent)

Peter

You should use coreavc 1.9.5 which has CUDA support for your card, in effect, it uses your fast videocard for h264!

here are my settings (accept CUDA) because my card isnt that good.. to get everything working fine, and also channel switching without locking up ..

I have the same issue but i can't get it fixed, i use vista x64 with aero enabled and tested it with both pdvd 8 and pdvd9 (from the HDTV pack 2.1), eurosport HD is working great but Nederland HD is b0rk3d. the playback is very choppy. Also when i zap from a HD to SD channel the image hangs on the HD channel but i hear the sound of the SD channel, and visa versa.

I use a phenom X3 with a HD3200 graphic (DXVA enabled).

Do you have EVR enabled in the mediaportal settings?

 

[insan3]

Yes i have.

Might be useful to add some logging, so other people can help u out.

Using arcsoft goes better but still not 100% smooth, and also when zapping from a HD to non-HD channel the image hangs.
