Hi all!,
I have been experimenting with codec settings, and no matter what I do, I get jerky motioned video
I am on xpsp2 Huge HDD lots of memory. I have a Creative audigy 2ZS board.
My setup is a Hauppauge HVR-950 S-video right to my DirecTV DVR.
I am (trying) to copy shows from the DVR to my HDD.
I have owned this program for about 4 days, and I have had 4 days of frustration!
I have a good selection of codec to chose from, and I have tried different combinations, all with the same or
similar results ... jerky video and broken sound.
The combo I have now, is a tiny bit better, but not good enough.
Recording Preferences
MPEG2
Quality - Good (DVD Ready)
everything else on that page is set to no.
--
Player Settings -
Video Playback
Snapstream Video/SP Decoder
I have also tried -
Cyberlink Video/SP Decoder , or Nvidia, and even Ligos.
The audio is always Snapstream audio decoder.
Deinterlacing Mode - none
video render - overlay
Latency - wait
skip forward - 30
backward - 7
reaction delay - 5
Beyond TV Link Integration Mode - disabled
--
Timeshifting - default. I had it doubled (4096), but does it make a difference?
Video Qualities expanded - 3718 kbps Good (DVD Ready) (MPEG-2 Recording Default)
Audio freq, and bitrate - default
FPS - 25.
Dimensions - 720x480
Variable bitrate - enabled
MPEG2 Stream Type - program stream

No show squeeze

When I go to play back on my media player 10,
all that shows in the playlist for the vid and audio is Ligos audio and video.
What is a good combo of codec so this skipping and jerking stops, and how do I get that combo
to actually show up in the media player?
So that's the main problem.
A question that I have is about all the extra files when making an mpeg2.
I'm talking about the .xml files, and the .dat files.
What are they for, and are they necessary?
Am I going to have to hand edit the commercials out since I am recording from a DVR?
Thank anyone that answers! I REALLY appeceiate it!
