Sleep mode and choppy video (1 Viewer)

I am using the lastest non SVN version of Mediaportal, everytime my machine comes out of sleep mode, the TV is choppy, it records fine with no frames lost and the sound is perfect. If I restart mediaportal, everything is ok.
Is this a known problem, or has anybody else come across it before?

Thanks

    I had the exact same issue.
    It was very frustrating. In the end I traced it to the latest Cyerlink codecs being used. I changed to a different codec and all was perfect again.

    Pity, those codecs were the best for my system, but the jumpiness was horrible. If I restart the PC (I don't think just MP was enough) then all was good again.

    Thanks for the reply,
    I had the same thought, and changed to the default codec and I still get the same problem. Which codec are you using?

    I now use the Compro codec that came with my card. The picture quality is excellent, but you get artifacts for a tiny moment when fast forwarding and rewinding, kind of like a corrupt keyframe in a DivX.

    The Compro Codec uses DXVA, because I originally thought it was something to do with the codec being hardware accellerated but it isn't the case.

    Sorry I can't be of more help.

    Surely someone else has seen this in action?
    Everything is perfect, but after MP wakes up then the live TV image jumps slightly. If you restart then all is fine again.
