Hi all,
I have recently built a HTPC and installed Media Portal. It installed with no problems and I have been able to tune channels and watch and pause Live TV, fantastic. Tonight I started playing around with the Recording functions and noticed that while I was recording a program, the screen would freeze up and lose frames. I think I specced my system OK, it is:
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4850e 2.5GHz Socket AM2 with stock cooler
MoBo: GA-MA78GM-UD2H has integrated Radeon HD3200 Graphics
TV Card: Hauppauge Wintv HVR4000 Quad Tuner Card
HD: Western Digital Caviar Green 500GB 3.5 SATA WD5000AACS
RAM: Crucial 4GB (2X2GB) DDR2 800MHz/PC2-6400 CT2KIT25664AA800 or BL2KIT25664AA80A
I am running XP and have only install the bare minimum of software, the CPU does not get any higher than 42deg.
Can anyone suggest a reason as to why this would be happening?
