[QUOTE="oldbean57, post: 52585, member: 20011"] Hi, I have a similar problem with 0.2.0 RC3 onwards. 0.1.3.0 and 0.2.0 RC2 are fine. In my case when using RC3 or RC4, Live TV is fine, but with Timeshifting enabled the playback becomes choppy with stutters every few seconds. I too have a WinFast PVR2000 and a Shuttle PC with ATI 9100 IGP graphics. It seems I have had the problem since 0.2.0 RC3 when MP began to recognise my card natively (showing as a PVR2000 as opposed to a Generic H/W Encoding Card). I have asked DMAN who confirms that this native support will still be using H/W encoding, and this seems to be the case since during Live TV or Timeshifting CPU usage hovers around 20%, never higher than 25%. However, while Live TV is great, Timeshifting is not. I'm not sure that it's an Overlay/video card-grunt issue either, since I'm using VMR9 in RC2 without issue (RC2 has no Overlay option). In RC2 full-screen Live TV with Timeshifting flies along. Something has changed in RC3 - perhaps someone with more knowledge of the program could give me a hint as to what is different, and what I might do to get things working ready for the final 0.2.0 release? Thanks very much. Here is my support template - please note it's showing RC2 since I've rolled-back for the time being.
