Hello,
I have an ATI Wonder Elite.
Using GB-PVR to view live tv works fine for about one to five minutes.
That is when it starts to continuously hic-up.
There are only two ways I have found to 'resume' normal play.
One is to change chanels back and forth.
The other is to start time shifting.
I have tried different decoders as well as keeping the live tv in
time shift mode. Niether works. From the forum I have deduced
three possible theories that could be causing the problem.
One, the cpu is at full use...AMD Athlon 950MHz.
Two, the memory is fully allocated...780MB.
Three, something else is going on...
What is interesting is I have been keeping an eye on the cpu
and memory allocations. The memory stays the same, I have
PLENTY left over. But the amount of cpu cycles used by gb-pvr
drops from 80% to about 16%. The strange thing is is that the
cpu cycles aren't being realocated to anything else. They just
sit in the System Idle Process.
So I am down to the theory that it is something else...
Thats where this forum comes in because I'm simply out of ideas...
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks...
