</div>These are the deinterlacers. the Slim, Normal, and High are<br>
preconfigured profiles that have selected different deinterlacers for<br>
varying capabilities of the cards. Edit one of those playback profiles<br>
to see where you can pick the deinterlacer. Or better yet, create your<br>
own profile and choose the deinterlacer that is appropriate for your<br>
card.<br></blockquote><div><br><br>You could also ask your cable box to output everything in 720p instead. Or have the HD-PVR only encode things that way, then you never have to worry about deinterlacing on your FE. Most of the time, I can't tell the difference in quality between 1080i and 720p and just prefer to have progressive so I don't have to fool with deinterlacing. On a nice big screen, 1080p certainly looks better, if you have a bluray to view. Not much else is available at that resolution. <br>
<br>Did you set the CPU clock speed up for your FE box? Check the wiki, aparently, the CPU downclocking can cause memory bandwidth starvation for the GPU. Bumping up the clock can help a lot with stuttering. I'm on an 8300 as well for one of my FEs and it works a lot better after doing that little hack. I believe I have that FE set to use Advanced 1x on 1080i content. I created my own VDPAU profile so I could control it all, I also increased the VDPAU buffers, but that was for a few problem files in MythVideo. TV recordings don't need it. <br>
