Kevin Steggles Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Whenever I watch a recorded TV program, I see a symbol in the top right-hand corner, consisting of 9 squares (three rowns and columns). On a recently recorded program however, this symbol in wandering all over the screen, which is just a bit annoying. Can anyone tell me what the symbol is, and is here anyway to get rid of it? Many thanks Quote Link to comment
Derrick Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 ..you need to register your elecard codec otherwise use another softplayer filter. Quote Link to comment
Guest Oliver Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 You'll find further information here in the English manual. Bye, Oliver Quote Link to comment
Griga Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 @Oliver: It's great to have that manual online, isn't it? I have in mind to write a little prog, that searches for keywords in the user's postings, and just responds "See here and here and here. Then we can retire... Griga Quote Link to comment
Technofriend Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 A lot of people die shortly after retiring !!!!! So, keep that in mind... Quote Link to comment
Kevin Steggles Posted October 7, 2003 Author Share Posted October 7, 2003 Thanks for that, but I wasn;t actually using that decoder (perhaps I still need to register?) and does it make sense that the suqare thingy is dancing all over the screen, whether I'm viewing 'live' tv or not?

Guest Oliver Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 The dancing square indicates that the Elecard decoder is installed on your system. It used both for watching live TV and media playback. I don't like the Elecard decoder, its deinterlacer is very bad and it features no hardware acceleration. Bye, Oliver Quote Link to comment
Kevin Steggles Posted October 7, 2003 Author Share Posted October 7, 2003 Ah...right, well I seem to have got rid of it by changing both the audio and video decoders to Nvidia, because I think I have an Nvidia graphics card....can you tell I have no idea what I'm doing?! Quote Link to comment
Guest Oliver Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 The NVIDIA decoders are only installed when you have NVDVD installed, too. It has nothing to do with the graphics card's vendor. You should have a look here (filter guide). Bye, Oliver Quote Link to comment
Griga Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Here you'll find more information about the NVDVD Player and the NVidia Decoder, plus a link to the the trial version download page. Griga Quote Link to comment
Technofriend Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 I suggest the following: the Elecard demultiplexer is good and free the Elecard soundrenderer is good and free as well The only thing that is shareware is the elecard mpeg2 renderer. In your startmenue in the elecard folder there is a component-manager there you can uninstall only the mpeg2 renderer Instead I use the mediamatics mpeg2 renderer. its bundled with the technisatdrivers (so it's free for us) and its quite good (also for zapping!) with the new 428 technisatdrivers its needed to install the bundled DVBViewerTE and not uninstall it afterwards to get the mediamatcs filter... GOOD LUCK ! Quote Link to comment
