[QUOTE="digitalfm, post: 472412, member: 66715"] Hi, I have the latest Nvidia drivers installed and version 1.9.5 of Core AVC. I've noticed that in Media Player CUDA is activated fine. The Core AVC icon goes green, however in MediaPortal it does not activate. I'm using the same .mkv movie to test so it's not a codec issue. Any ideas why this woould work in MediaPlayer but not in MediaPortal. I have a Geforce 8600GTS. It's 256mb so wondering if there's not enough memory to use CUDA as well as running MP? I suppose the next question however would be is any of this important. Does the picture quality improve with CUDA activated, or is CUDA solely handling video acceleration rather than any picture enhancements? If there's no picture enhancements at all then my CPU can continue to earn it's living the hard way. :D [/QUOTE]
