Hi all.
I have Mediaportal (With an SVN from last weekend) and TVServer3 (Same) running really well on my HTPC setup.
I'm generally really happy with it. The TVServer in particular is a great step forward and Mediaportal is a fantastic application.
However I have one little problem. When watching TV, the picture seems good to my eye, but any scrolling text (Such as news tickers or program credits) are almost unreadably "stuttery". I don't know how else to describe it. It's like a really low frame-rate and blurred.
I have a Black Gold dual PCI-e card and a Nebula PCI (Both DVB-t). The machine is a Intel Core2 6300 @ 1.86ghz and 2gb of RAM. The Windows XP-sp2 install is fresh. I'm in the UK on the Emley Moor transmitter.
This is connected to a LCD HDTV 37" via a PC: VGA -> TV: DVI lead ( DVI -> DVI doesn't work with my tv for some reason.. that's an issue for another time and place) in 720p (1280x720@60hz)
Comparison of the same channel on Sky or an ordinary Freeview box via SCART is much better looking and more readable (it's smooth), while the PC output looks almost unreadable.
I'm a video "n00b", so this is a complete mystery to me. I had no joy searching the forums and google for similar problems, probably because I'm using the wrong language.
Any ideas?
