553545 2007-09-25 07:59:00 Install on SP2 working but with same problems as SP1. No compression (MPG/MP3) and there is reverbiration on sound when recording.

Sorry, I haven't got back to you earlier, had the PC off for a couple of days. OK, I recommend you to install the Xvid codec if you haven't already got it. It's a bit tricky to set all this up but I'll try to explain it. With K!TV running click on Options, Zoomout, Preferences, Video, Select a profile ... here you should see the Xvid option displayed. If you click on the 'Creation des profiles' button you can configure Xvid options there, but it's complicated and I took quite some time to fine tune it to my liking, but the default settings should work pretty well.

I also had reverbration in the sound which I fixed by lowering the video recording resolution to 384 x 288. On my hardware (1.86Mhz Core 2 Duo, 1Gb ram) any higher resolution causes reverbration and too great a frame loss rate (especially when compressing in one pass). Also when you play the recording back it is like it's fast forwarding because of the skipped frames :D

OK, hope you get it working, it's a good program, especially for the price! ;)

553546 2007-09-26 06:46:00 There's only two options: No recompression: YUY2
PICVideo MJPEG Codec - I tried this one but Profile name remains No video compression and Commentaire is greyed out displaying No recompression: YUY@ and Configure only configures PicVideo compression.

I've checked the recordings I have made and there is no sound.

553547 2007-09-26 07:06:00 I tried the lower resolution - same when recording, however, when I played the recorded filr back it seemed OK. JaceKiwi (2561)
553548 2007-09-26 09:15:00 Not sure what the problem is but I recommend you download and install the free Xvid codec from here: www.xvid.org

Don't know why the sound wouldn't be recorded ... did you check the settings on the Audio tab of the Zoomout preferences? I imagine the Audio recording box would be ticked by default, but maybe not? With my old TV card (Askey TView2000) there is a cable that feeds the sound from the line-out on the card to the line-in on my audio card. Maybe yours is similar?

OK, let me know how you get on.

553549 2007-09-27 09:07:00 Installed XVid and did a test recording - tried to play the AVI file - a setup program started up for Media Player 9.

I get sound - I've changed recording properties (selected AUX) in volume control (This is what the line out of the AverTV card is plugged into).

553550 2007-09-27 09:08:00 Get a better tuner / program. Speedy Gonzales (78)
553551 2007-09-28 22:17:00 There are none (the software either crashes or anywhere near suitable - I've tried quite a few) and I'm not falking out for another card. The only option left is to go back to VCR recording and just playback on the computer JaceKiwi (2561)
553552 2007-09-28 22:56:00 got a sky dish? get a PCI Free View tuner. get the all the channels then :)

also ill look for some VCR program. i think thats what its called. lets you record from Fibre or sat TV. but that involves buying the suggested Free view card.

Free View doesn't do Prime. So there would be no benifit.
