TV - HTPC Connection: HDMI
I did a fresh install of Media Portal since I got a video capture card for christmas. The install is pretty much straight forward, the only additional thing I did was install the stand alone filters. All the movies play great (mkv format). TV however is a different story. The video is pixelated. Not super bad, but whenever there is movement you see it pretty bad, and any text is ghosted real bad. Right now I just have this on my monitor 22". I do have it hooked into the TV but it looks 10x worse on that. If I take the cable and go from the wall directly into the TV it's fine so I don't believe it is the cable signal. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am not going to even attempt the dual tuner part until I can get a clear picture
Thank you so much!
