I've been experimenting with mediaportal for a few days and in general I'm quite excited about it. But as you can see in my specs I have a software encoding video card and not that much cpu power. So whenever I start the tv it begins to stutter(that means in my case, MP reacting very slow and the sound and view not going fluently). So I tried almost all the anti stutter actions mentioned on this forum (installing older video drivers, hotfix, installed etc.. ), but without any luck. So I think what is told in the manual about the minimum CPU power for software encoding tv cards is very true in my case. (except anyone has a golden hint :rolleyes: ) My conclusion is that I need an analog hardware encoding tv card, so I wonder if that is also the conclusion of the more experienced MP users? and if so, which tv-card would you recommend ?(one I can easily buy on ebay;) ) thank you for your answers Maarten [/QUOTE]
