Full screen mode 'playing up'

[washboardmac]

Hi Guys

 

Brand new PC for TV reception:

 

AMD 64 X2 3800

Nvidia 6150 IGP with nforce 430 chipset

768MB RAM (soon to be 1GB)

ATA133 HDD (PATA)

 

Have done completely clean install of Win XP, all patched - SP2, all updates, DVB-T patch and AMD X2 drivers, latest nvidia drivers.

 

Hauppauge WinTV2000 working fine in both windowed and full screen so don't suspect its drivers although who knows...

 

DVBV 3.5 is great in windowed mode but exhibits occasional, but frequent, stuttering and groups of dropped frames in full screen mode sometimes recovering 1/2 second or 1 second later but occasionaly freezing.

 

Don't know if it is DVBV at fault but have run out of options with all the patches and drivers installed and other software working.

 

Using overlay since other options not good. Have tried a variety of codecs - Hauppauge, nvidia, cyberlink, intervideo, but no difference.

 

Any ideas.

 

Cheers

 

Andy

Apologies Lars

 

I was not near my TV machine when I wrote the post. Support file now attached.

 

To add, I have just updated to 1GB and am now running in dual channel mode. The board has SMA (set at 64MB) and appears, so far, to be better. I've only been viewing one channel - BBC2, with a high data rate - since getting in from work and so will keep an eye on it tonight to see how it performs with a range of channels.

 

Many thanks

Update:

 

The PC has been on since 17:30 and is still 'behaving'.

 

Problem solved methinks.

 

Cheers
