Hi
Finally I got around to build my next generation htpc (you know, dvb-t + dvb-s(2) and 1080p blu-rays/mkv files). I plan to use the mpc-hc patch binaries for evr + subtitle support in 1080p. We have been using plain MCE 2005 with analog terrestial for 3-4 years and cannot live without a mediacenter.
I fooled around with MP 0.2.3 and liked it (and a lot of the plugins)! So naturally I grabbed 1.0.2 a while ago and started settings it up. But I'm having serious problems with the speed of channel changing. Cannot seem to get it under 25-30 seconds... and with no hourglass or spinning wheel in the gui the wife / kids dont know whats going and tries again, ... and again ...
I have tried:
- both vista and win7
- tv cards: pinnacle dvb-t (cant remember model), usb terratec T5 dual-dvbt, usb technotrend s-3600 dvb-s2, BlackGold BGT 3510 pci-e dual dvbt
- motherboards MSI Diva and ITX ION-A (both really cool, btw)
...and almost all combinations of those. Both after clean install and after fooling around with settings.
The issue is the same. Windows MCE (vista/win7) and e.g. DVBViewer changes the viewing channel in about 2-3 s (max) but with MP seems hanging or rebuilding the graph for a long time.
Anything I could have missed during setup?
Thanks
