[QUOTE="FlipGer, post: 182885, member: 10293"] Hi Marco, well tickers on news channels are one of the most nifty things. With those you often "detect" playback issues. ;) Also sports like soccer with fast camera panning can be a pain. Small stutters or hiccups may not be issued by too little CPU power. This can also have its reason within an unoptimized setup between video source frame rate, rendering frame rate and refresh rate of your monitor. For example PAL has a frame rate of 25fps, so you should set the rendering frame rate and the refresh rate of your monitor to the same value or a multiple of it eg. 50fps and 75Hz refresh rate. Using NTSC it would be 30fps and 60Hz. HD makes it even more complicated because it is using 24fps. If you have not state of the art technology you will even get hiccups within HD environment, because only latest LCDs support 24Hz (or multiple). :( To your question: Sure there are better CPUs. :) But I fear if you would like to make an upgrade you also have to buy a new motherboard. ffdshow directly benefits from multiple cores, because it computes the resize on the different cores.
