failure playing back file

[csmaster2005]

sorry, I know next to nothing about encoding/decoding etc.

Any idea how I can go about fixing this problem?
thanks

Also, my system currently is this:
the twinhaun card to use for hdtv
athlon 64x2 4000
1gb ram
gfx card i'm currently running is an x1950 256mb (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6814102067)
The gfx card i'm using in it is temporary untill I get the rest of the parts for my desktop i'm going to rebuild (that gfx card will be for the ddesktop) and I will switch it back to a x850. But for the time being, it's using that card, which has anything it'd need I'm sure.

Try installing AC3Filter. Google for it.

ya thanks alot, I just got it installed, and I hear sound from live tv.
remaining issue I find is that when I am playing back the recording I made earlier today, it is lagging/stalling bad... any ideas?

This would usually be because of either poor signal quality or your machine not able to keep up with HDTV.

I think you may of misunderstood what I said.

I can play hdtv live and it looks fine, sound is fine, no lag, etc.

When i play a recording that was made several hours ago (it was made when I didnt have ac3filter installed though, sot hat may be it), it lags.
I doubt it's the computer, because the specs are much higher than most people that have done this on the forums appear to be using.

Sorry, I dont know then.

what lags that dont explain what you are talking about
the sound lags ?
or is it jumping
or does it stall
or what ??
more than one word is needed

what operating system?
if its vista 1gig of ram isnt enough

[csmaster2005]

by lag, I mean the sound and video are both really choppy.
I think it's an issue with ac3filter that I installed, because if I load the video with software that I dont think is using ac3filter (ex. I used VLC player) I don't hear any sound, but the video runs smoothly)

I havent been able to figure it out yet, so any tips would help.
thanks
