<font face="Arial">Very useful, thank you. Here's a useful tip for you
in return. You could have linke to
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/163280#164999">http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/163280#164999</a>
instead of saying "9th post". But you had no way of knowing that. So,
here's the tip: Every blogger should have this bookmarklet in their
favorites.

When you use that bookmarklet, it makes all the hidden named anchors
(which are what permit the # linking convention) visible. It's very
cool.<br>
<br>
There are many other great tools there. My FAVORITE is
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password">http://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password</a>
which I can use to remove the annoy "feature" that my employer, banks,
and brokerage houses use to prevent my browser from prompting to save
my password. It's a real time saver!<br>

this, in the hopes that someone already has an answer...
It certainly looks like I'm not going to get very far with the ATI video in
the Pundit-r. And I don't have the room to tack in another PCI card,
without removing a capture card.
So, since my output is 720p native resolution *anyway*, what's the
preferred method to transcode a recorded 1080i stream to a 720p stream (or
less)? Perhaps that would allow me to at least kinda watch TV.
thanks!

<pre wrap="">The pink bar is an ATI xvideo issue. You might try to work around it
with the binary ATI drivers instead. 720p video won't have a problem,
just any xvideo playback larger than 1280x720 (from memory) doesn't
scale right so you see pink.

I haven't been able to look at 720p streams yet, at least, not that

My question is, are there others out there successfully using a

at fixing?

<pre wrap="">I've got the other version of the pundit running a 2.8GHz Northwood.
I quickly came the conclusion via testing various 1080i and 720p
clips with both the onboard SIS and a ATI PCI adapter that HDTV
playback on the pundit wasn't going to be great without going down
the Nvidia + XVMC road. After considering XVMC and looking at the
video deinterlace quality and pundit box itself I've decided to avoid
HDTV for now and plan for it when I can build the 'killer box".
