I have the hauppage pvr-150, and would like to know people's opinions on the best software to use for watching tv through it. Thanks!

I use Sage TV and love it.

Dscaler is nice and free.

I run a ReplayTV server in the computer room and use XBox Media Center XBMC to stream all recordings from the Replay Server. I plan to include my PVR-500MCE into the mix.


just got a license for SageTV. I'll be testing it out soon. ..but I'll probably use it as a server only.

I did not think dscaler could be used to run tv playback. I thought you had to use sagtv, mythtv, or something like that. I am looking fo rsomething that is not too expensive. I think sage tv is like $75 isn't it.

Dscaler doesn't work with hardware encoding cards like the pvr150 as far as I know. I use Sage to record and Zoomplayer to watch the recordings. I do not watch live programming with any of my pvr cards. I use dscaler with a compatible software card for that.

Software for watching TV, well the couch is pretty soft although a little dented where I sit. Sometimes I watch TV in bed and the matress is also soft.

I have a pvr150 and watch tv on Dscaler just fine. I even can play games on it without a delay.

Is there any option to force dsaler to stop deinterlacing at all? I want to upscale a video signal from my capture card using ffdshow, but I don't want to have that (small) delay when playing games.

Dergrin,
I would love to know how to setup the pvr-150 to be able to play my xbox games with it. By the way, I love the avatar.

Hmmm...Interesting. I'll have to look in to this.

Oh, what version of dscaler?

Have any of the SageTV guys been able to use Dscaler from within Sage?

update on how I watch TV now.

I use SageTV to record shows PVR-500MCE, and use XBMC to watch TV over the network.

I still don't think Sage is as sexy as ReplayTV's interface.

Mantis,
I guess I have already answered your question on the other thread. Thanks for the avatar complement. If the avatar size could be bigger, than there would be a photoshoped tattoo on his forehead saying "For the Horde!!!".

KOS,
I am using Dscaler4.

You could totally photoshop a [H] on his head

Will do tonight. Thanks for the idea

Im using the Winfast XP2000

Works fine for cable. Only problem is I can only get an analog audio signal out of it.
Just means I have to switch my reciever to analog to get sound while watching TV.
