Full Version: Aspect Ratio on Freeview HD

Hi,

I use a Hauppauge TD500 twin tuner card for viewing Freeview HD in NZ.

One thing ive noticed once moving to using NPVR (from GBPVR) - is that the HD recordings always seem to play in the wrong aspect - i always have the picture set to auto - but it doesnt seem to pick up the right aspect. yet if i cycle through the modes back to auto - it goes back to the right aspect again. if i then choose another HD recording its back to scratch and have to cycle through the modes again.

The recordings i have off the NOVA-S and HVR4000 DVB-S tuners are fine - they always seem to pick up the right aspect.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

Is this a function of the decoder? HD is using Cyberlink H264/AVC decoder and MPEG2 is using Cyberlink PDVD10 decoder.
