What is the benchmark codebase? 3.11? or 3.06?

I find that 3.06 works quite well with no slowdowns etc.. but 3.11 turns into a slideshow after a few mins..

Is there a 3.06 benchmark?  perhaps I could run both and compare?

Also, if you are using ProgDVB and ffdshow, make sure you load the ffdshow control panel and enable MPEG2 decoding (that's if your satellite card is streaming MPEG2).. It took me a while to figure that one out..     

Hey chainik, thanks for your prompt reply

At the time, when i was using 3.11, I believe it was using all my vid memory (3gb on a 7970) as MSI Afterburner shows how much GPU memory is in use. I'm now using 3.06 so I can't replicate the bug as it doesn't appear to be affecting 3.06.

Here's a dump of my svpmark score.. Pretty much identical to the 7850 numbers. I'm using 12.3 whql cat drivers.

Now, i've just spent the last hour trying to replicate the other 1440x1080i bug. This is where it gets interesting. If I load the sample into MPC-HC, it plays fine, no issues. However, when i play the same video in progdvb (http://update-progdvb.com/download/ProgDVB6.84.2Pro.exe), it crashes the player. Bear in mind that it did the same thing in media portal and jriver media center (all TV recording apps). Maybe you could download progdvb and see if you can replicate the bug. You don't need to worry about the TV side of it, just load the .ts file.

Here's the sample .ts file.

Hope this helps.. and thanks
