Ive got the 550 ATI personal PVR package which I think is based on the same 550 Pro design.
All Ive done is install the card , catalyst drivers and GBPVR.
When setting it up under capture sources you specify the 550 Pro but other than that under EPG source/recording source ---- I dont see much else to set up in regards to the card.
Under playback theres USE SOFTWARE DECODER
Under SOFTWARE MPEG2 playback theres NERO or System default
thats it.
Im getting 30-50% CPU usage when I check just watching LIVE TV mode and
when there is motion I see interlacing lines many times.
I tried ChrisTV Professional and I dont get the interlacing lines, the picture looks slightly better in general and the CPU usage is around 7-15%. Theres also a selection under playback --- 550 pro decoder.
Ive combed through the config program options. Am I missing something?
Using a nforce 3 --- 3200 AMD system with WIN XP pro and 9600 Radeon card on this system with VRM9 chosen. Ive tried the others too.
