1.3c - using dualcore = hiccups

Postby arfster » Thu Dec 28, 2006 4:57 pm

Basically the problem here is whenever i disable the "use only one processor" option, there are fairly nasty video hiccups every few seconds. This occurs with both a TT 1500 and Skystar2 with all driver types, with all types of video, in Vista and in XP, and is unique to DVBDream - it doesn't happen in or any of the otherwise inferior competition :) (tried MyTheatre, DVBviewer pro and GE, AltDVB, progdvb )

Normally this isn't a problem, I just disable the second core, but for BBC HD h264 you need both working (unless you have a monster overclocked Core2Duo I guess).

Has anyone else seen this? If not, it might be my hardware disagreeing with DVBDream, although it's a little strange nothing else has this problem. For the record, it's a Pentium 805D @ 3.5ghz, Asus P5LD2, 1gb. Nothing else is running, I've checked with process explorer and other tools - it just continuously hiccups, even at 5% CPU.

Thanks

Thanks - that might be the same thing there, I'll post in that thread and try figure out the common element to the problem.
