Thread: Choppy Hauppauge WinTV

Greetings all

I have a problem with my USB TV card. I have followed Guino's guide, installed the winamp plug-in and it works from within RoadRunner (BMV skin), but although the audio is fine, the video is very stuttery. It freezes for approx 1 second, shows an few frames, frezes again etc.

CPU useage shows as at or near 100%

The same occurs in winamp itself without RR running.

Using the WinTV 2000 program supplied with the card then everything works fine and CPU load is approx 35%.

I'm guessing this is a winamp driver issue? I've explored the plugin settings and tried the three different renders available and they all seem the same. I have the CCC codec pack installed.

I've tried searching but couldn't find anything with a similar issue.

I'd be very grateful for any advice as I'm new to car PC/RR/TV plugin...
