Live TV & Audio breaking up

[johnharb]

Hi, hope someone can help with this, I have a problem with live tv and audio it will start to crackle and shortly after stop altogether, followed by the picture getting jerkier and jerkier till it too freezes, I have tried all manner of decoders and can't see any improvement from one to the other, yet it records beautifully??
I tried Power Cinema and that is without a glitch but it aint' no GBPVR. My PC is very capable I have a 4.4 gig dual processor, 2gig ram and two Nova T's, in previous posts on the forum I read that if the PSU was a bit of a low wattage it could cause it so I replaced my old one for a 500 watt one but didn't see any difference, any help would be greatly appreciated

It might be worth trying to set the 'processor affinity' for gbpvr.exe in task manager to limit playback to one CPU core. Directshow has problems on some dual-core machines.

Hi Sub,
it worked 100% cheers, just one question can I make task manager remember the setting as each time I close down GBPVR it forgets.

Many Thanks

Check out this page, about half way down there's a link to a processor task assignment util on it, might be what you're looking for :-
