Live TV Green Screen

patrol42 · **7th October 2006, 09:33 AM**

Hi there,

Received Vista RC1 and thought I would give it a try.

Everthing worked great, all drivers installed. But when I got o live TV I get the Audio, but a blank green screen. I have not tried playing a normal DVD as i had to put the old disk back and get MCE working for the wife, but will try it today and update with the results.

Is this a decoder problem? I thougth Vista had its own decoder but i could be wrong
Should I try a different decoder ? ie Purevideo?

The PC is a AMD 2800, 2GB ram, Nforce Chipset , Geforce 7200 video, and dual Compro DVB-T 300 Tuners

As I said it all worked fine with the install, the compro drivers (latest from the web) loaded via a manual install, EPG Worked, San found all the TV channels etc etc

I guess the DVB-T tuners may not be 100% vista compatible, and if so then I guess i will wait for drivers..but thought I would see what the collective wisdom of here had to say

any ideas?

I get the same thing intermittently using dvb-t plus, I can hear the sound but the picture is bright green. I have to reboot the machine to fix it. I'm also experiencing jerky playback on divx and xvid movies, dvico says on their site that they have had problems with jerky playback with nvidia graphics cards.
