[QUOTE="Jay_UK, post: 655110, member: 98509"] Hi guys, Spent a few hours today playing.... I couldn't get any of the "usual" codecs to play fair with 1080i (MS, PDVD, FFdShow), so I thought what the heck lets try CoreAVC, so I blew a whopping £6 on a copy. Installed it and and it sucked - big audio delay issues and poor quality :( Weird thing is after several reboots it seems to work good - but now too do the other codecs (MS DTV, PDVD) on 1080i!! :O So at the moment I am running PDVD10 on TV for SD and HD (PDVD10 even seems to work on BBC HD with VBR ???) For videos and movies I have a new problem, I can use ffdshow ok on SD content, but ffdshow DXVA does not work with overlay enabled (black screen, but I get audio). If I disable overlay (subtitle/OSD) then it works, or if I have it enabled and switch to another window and back it seems to work (kind of). So for HD movies/videos I am running CoreAVC (although MS DTV seems to work ok) On SD content I am averaging about 50% CPU (no DXVA), but on HD content I arrange about 20 - 30% CPU. It's puzzling me what I have done (I've installed/changed a few things, so won't be able to pin point it). I might remove all the codecs (and SAF5) and start again. I still get the odd dropped frame, but nothing noticable. So it looks like the ION-NG can cope ok with 1080i (and obviously 1080p) :D I'm busy working my way through all the different movies/channels to check for problems. J. [/QUOTE]
