thanks to you for bringing up ReClock to me, i'm now successfully using it on top of my tmt3, resampling all my movie track to 24bit/96kHz on the fly during playback.
SOUNDS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME compared to bitstreaming at 24bit/48kHz. much more detail with better accuracy/sound projection. and made the video playback super smooth. a whole lot smoother than ATI's enforce Cinema Smooth hardware implementation. never video playback have been this smooth on my system.

though i'm running on ATI 5450. will try it out on a friend's system (core i3) once i visit back his place.

PLS help if you have PVR and ASTRO.

hi guys, i need some help here. my HTPC has been down for many months but due to busy schedule, i have not restored it as yet. at the same time, i do not watch ASTRO anymore.

i'm asking a favor (I WILL PAY) to help to record a program on astro ch 502 Bernama, on the 21st Nov, Sun 9.30 pm (my wife is on TV). and help me to burn into the DVD. please PM me if you are able to help. thank you very much!

Actually got problem especially on high bit rate + HD audio m2ts file, it plays but not very smooth and has tearing...

..and it has resync problem too which I'm trying hard to solve it using ReClock now...

Nvidia GTX460 I had no idea if it is perfect for HTPC. But one advantage is it support 3DVision if you have 120hz display.

tat is why i am asking all sifus here.
if the i3's IGP can handle HD audio and HD video using DXVA properly, then i dont need to buy another GPU already.
so i can save money, save electricity, and also less heat dissippation...

in that case... why not just get a DUNE it is way better and much more flexible...

I would advise you to take a discreet graphics get a Nvidia 210 or 310
or Ati 5450 it is cheap and made for HTPC...

2. if you're concerned about 23.976Hz playback and jitter on a htpc, GET A DUNE. no matter what type of graphics card you use, THERE WILL BE JITTER. yes ATi 5XXX card included (not only i3 IGP). and quite possibly any nVidia GC too. a PC uses multiple clock reference unlike a media player that could lock all its clock to a single clock generator. a PC have different clock reference for audio, video, cpu, northbrigde, southbridge and all that crap. and the OS manage everything, usually trying to sync everything to the CPU clock. an impossible feat at best for a software to sync a hardware clock to one another. YOU NEED TO USE RECLOCK.

3. some people won't notice motion jitter. a lot won't. i never noticed it when i was running on my LCD. because LCD just don't have that fast of a response rate. jitter is a dead giveaway after i installed my 50" full hd plasma. and mind you, ATi have a perfect 24p (23.976Hz) refresh rate. even then motion jitter is hugely noticeable on the new screen. refer above for reason.

Minimum Phenom II X3 and MXM descreet Ati 5450 Graphics

what is the screen resolution supported in dell zino? want to hook up my hdready crt tv to dell zino if possible, via a pc to tv converter (which supports up to 1600x1200 resolution).

He is asking about Bluray playback of course it is a TrueHD

if normal MKV a build in Ati 4330 will do... but hey look at Zino it is so cheap might as well throw a few upgrades for future proofing...

coz my crt tv only have component/RCA video/S-video port. so i guess component cable shld give the best video quality in this situation. therefore the pc to tv converter is used to connect from my pc (or future dell zino) using vga port to component video

I think current AMD chipset still cannot handle HD audio bitstream.

If u need a HTPC that can bitstream HD audio, look for Intel HD55 chipset motherboard and paired it with Core i3 cpu, no need to buy additional GPU, Intel Integrated Graphic is good enough liao.

Just buy one la 
Mostly all latest AVR nowdays already have a TrueHD/DTS-HD feature.

i reckon he said he don't even have speakers for it. probably no HT setup yet.

motion judder are largely more noticeable on bigger screen. more area for the unresolved lines to appear.

the link he put is for the sapphire card. SAPPHIRE HD 5570 1GB DDR3 DP
AFAIK, there's usually 2 models of the card, one with VGA, DVI and HDMI and the other model comes with VGA, DVI and Display Port.

if you guys are using ReClock, what is the media adaption that you are using? I have tried to set my display freq to 50Hz, AVR input to 50Hz, and if I set the ReClock to 50Hz, it will become green but it will stutter a lot ... if I set to Auto or original refresh rate, it will become yellow but playback not so smooth...

Is there anyway to set the ReClock media adaption setting automatically each time a movie is played?

Yeah HDMI ftw!

RCA, RGB, VGA DVI, Optical, S-video all are evil and should just die.

Buy HTiB lorr less headache to find speakers and more cheaper

LCD depend on what LCD TV lah you need to refer to manual

my sony Bravia is 1366x768

Pioneer Infinity from SenQ. DTS HD MA and DD True HD supported. Comes with VSX520K AVR

RM2600 after discount.

Plan to assemble the Asus E35M1-M PRO (dual-core AMD® Zacate APU) , 6GB RAM, 500GB HDD, LITE-On BD-ROM, silverstone Ml-03 case and 6gb RAM HTPC system, want to ask this AMD CPU+IGP=APU system can handle Blueray 50GB 1080 24P well? means without judder problem
the tv i may b use is Panasonic v20k plasma tv with 24p smooth/playback thanks

It sounds like the monitor issue actually. 

Can you set your graphic card to default setting first, and test the playback again ?

Also, I installed Plex Media Server into my PC based NAS and use Plex Home Theatre for my HTPC.
Also there's mobile apps for iOS and Android too if you wanna pay for it. Haven't tried it though.
