<p class=MsoNormal>Mike, did you ever update the firmware on the HDPVR at
all? If you haven’t, chances are you don’t have the latest
version. I don’t know how to tell which version you do have.
I do know that the only way to update the firmware will require a windows PC;
it’s possible that the HDPVR drivers for windows can tell you what
version is installed. Unless your HDPVR was manufactured after May 2009
it has an older firmware. You can get the latest here: <a

<p class=MsoNormal>I don’t know what the high quality profile default settings
are as I changed them long ago. In Setup -> TV Settings -> Playback
on screen 3 your profile should show VDPAU for the high def resolutions.
If it says something else (ffmpeg or xvmc for example), then you are not using
VDPAU. The NVidia chipset on your video card will determine your
deinterlacer choices as well. If you have a 9xxx series or better you
should be able to use Advanced (2x, Hw) as your deinterlacer, which seems to be
the best one. See the Wiki documentation for editing the playback profiles,
although it’s all a series of select boxes so it’s fairly easy to
muddle through. I only have an HDPVR as my capture device and my camcorder
outputs h264 videos, so I have if rez > 0 0 -> vdpau & vdpau as my only
setting. If you have a mix of video recording devices you may want to
have a more detailed profile.<o:p></o:p></p>
