CPU Usage

Ok, so when I open GB-PVR to the TV Guide, my CPU levels are at 0-5%, but when I select to watch a channel, the CPU levels go straight up to 100%! This makes watching the TV program unbearable!
If you could help I would be very thankful. Thanks so much!

This shouldn't happen unless you're trying to watch HD channels or using a software decoding tuner.

What is your CPU like if play back something already recorded? Also video card, driver and mpeg decoder can have a big effect.

So, you are actually getting audio & video when you open Live TV (even stuttering)
At least that rules out Codecs. I would go with the HD thing which gazoo raised - the new Sat HD transmissions just started in Britain didn't they? What video card do you have in your machine? If you check your pvrx2-native.log then it will show what audio / video decoders / filters are being used to try to play that file, which will give some indication as to the codecs.

Reproduce the problem then post your pvr2.exe.log and pvrx2.exe-native.log and I'll take a look.

Ok,
I cant attach it to the message as im not by that machine at the moment. It is a ATI Radeon 9550, even though it is low end it shouldn't do that. It only seems to do it when I use dual-screen, im not sure how to mirror the screens so i have extended desktop enabled. And by the way, its just normal standard definition TV.
