GBPVR 1.2.9 Video problem

[SUPERMAN40]

I have a video problem when watch HD with the GBPVRx2. The shows are fine for 2-5 seconds and then become more and more jerky in video and audio.

My system is: AMD dual processor, 2 gig memory, Nvidia 8500gt, Win XP sp2 -up to date, HomeRunHD-latest firmware and software.

The problem only happens with live TV or recorded shows playing through the GBPVR. I have set Video Decoder to Cyberlink Video, Audio Decoder: Cyberlink Audio, Audio Renderer: Cyberlink Audio Renderer. If I do not use these codecs then nothing will happen. I have not added any codecs that are not in the standard Winxp sp2 install.

I have Cyberlink Power DVD version 7 Deluxe.

When I play the same recorded files directly with Power DVD there is no problem. When I play the live HDTV through the Homerunhd with VLC there is no problem, and when I play the HDTV with the Mapping facility built into the 'capture sources' there is no problem.

The problem seems directly related to something in GBPVRx2 playback.

I have read other treads that indicate that PBpvr only uses external playback code, but there must be something that is wrong or missing.

thanks in advance for any help

Its most likely something to do with the combination of audio/video decoders you're using. Try using alternative decoders.

[SUPERMAN40]

should I concentrate on the video and audio decoders or the audio renderer?

It could be any of those.

I have been trying different combinations but this is very difficult. Can you suggest any likely combinations?

[sub]

No. I personally get pretty good results with most decoders, but I know some people are not so lucky, and find they have to use certain decoders to get good playback. Its all a bit random really, and dependent on all sorts of things related to the hardware they have, version the decoders they have, other software they have on their machines etc...

OK, I think I may have a combination that will work, but now a new problem.

When I look at the schedule I see all the stations and the shows and can select the analog cable shows without a problem. When I select a digital station it will not change, it will only show the last analog cable show I was watching. However, if I do a 'record now' it will record the digital station I selected perfectly.

any suggestions?

Reproduce the problem then zip and attach the logs and I'll take a look.

Its because you're using your analog M780 card, and trying to watch channels that tuner cant receive. For example, I can see you trying top view channel 912 on that device.

You need to disable channels that device cant receive in the capture source channel list.
