    Hi,

    Upgraded few days ago to Windows 7, MP 1.1.0 RC3 and SAF 4.0 (unlocked). Fresh install and everything went smoothly...

    The issue I'm having now is that edges are stuttering when watching live SD TV. It's especially visible around upper and lower frame edges and with dark subtitle edges. It happens both with PDVD, ffdshow and Microsoft's codec, but it does not happen with MPC (Gabest). No such problems when watching HD TV or MPEG2 videos...

    Also tested TV with FireDTV's own viewer and everything looked fine but I realized that the viewer uses VMR9. Tried switching MP to VMR9 and the TV looks fine then with all codecs, but other things are messed up so I would like to use EVR...

    Any advice?
    What's the latest verdict on Catalyst drivers and Windows 7, haven't followed that in a while...

    [EDIT] Some more testing... No problems when running on single display only. I normally run dual display with MP through HDMI and desktop through D-sub...

    Thanks,
    MPM
