Channel surfing causes stutter

[gomjabar]

Hey, gbpvr is working great and with a new processor/mobo its running better than ever. My only issue is that if I change the channel too many times the video starts to stutter. If I go back to the root menu and then hit live tv the problem goes away. This only happens when im surfing and usually after 7 or 8 quick channel changes.

Sounds like Video sync problems. Try setting "Encoder pass through" in the config app. Its in the interlace drop down I think. Also try another codec other then the default.

Just curious...is the setting for time between channel changes supposed to be above a certain level for gbpvr to work correctly or is it just preference setting?

I get the same thing, so I don't surf. I just pick from the guide.

Ive tried about 5 other decoders and it only happens to me with the nvidia dvd decoder. Im using the new Purevideo release of their decoder but I remember having this problem with the older dvd decoder.

Also try the nivida w/ the hareware acceleration off. It will stuttder unless you have specific cards (my nivida isn't one). Nvidia's is also the most proc heavy, so others are better on slower/multiuse machines.
