Re: Hauppage 1600 or Dvico Fusion 5 PCI

Thanks for the replies. I watched a recorded show last night and there was only a couple or jerks. Much better than eairlier in the day. So then I got to thinking that it was both live and recorded stuff that sometimes was jerky.

My signal strength is really good (above 90% on all channels, double wide antenna on the roof) so it is not that.

I have USB 2.0.

I upgrade to the latest drivers for the Dvico and after that it was really jerky, but later on it was better, thats why I thought to ask the question.

Now I am thinking about upgrading the Video Card. This would be more of a pain to change. I currently have an NVidia 6600Gt running 84.37 drivers and connected using Componant outputs and AGP. After watching last night when it was better I am not sure if I should upgrade anything, but would still like to get rid of the ocasional jerk. Does everyone have an ocassional jerk say 5 or less an hour?.

Do you think this would be a better upgrade??

If I changed the video card I would possably go to a ATI HD2400 which supports componant and AGP.


I am running XP Pro, Pentium 3.0 Ghz, 1Meg ram with an ASUS P4C800E motherboard. 300Gb Hd and 160Gb Hd. BTV 4.6
