TV card supply?
 

Hi,
Is it possible that BSplay will support video display of my TV-card someday? I ask because all the TV apps i've seen yet are just sooo crappy and on the other hand BSplay is by far the best movie player i came across...

(OK maybe this is wishful thinking - so maybe anyone can recommend any good program that supports hauppauge WinTV? 8) )

thanks, joel

But this is not an input card (video capture)? For displaying on tv you need a video card with tv-output. Bsplayer suports them because is a problem for drivers to display on tv or on PC display.

actually it IS an input card i guess, since it allows for TV channels to display on my monitor... i don't even have a TV so i don't care about TV-output ... :)

I am sorry for not understanding in the beginning. You want bsplayer to became a tv station, am I right ? To play signal from your tv capture card. Like pixelview tv station or miro pc tv. I used the first and I like it. It's based on tv cards for bt 878 series.

Hm, maybe some crazy guy will do a directshow filter for tv cards.. (though I dunno if that's possible ;))
Yet, I don't think watching tv with a movie player will be a staggering experience.. I'd recommend DScaler, it's doing a really great job; esp. if you watch tv in fullscreen mode, the deinterlace filters are great.

Dscaler is a good alternative, but if you also need to record from TV, i'd recommed you take a look at:

Awesome software for capturing video from tv-cards.

FlyTv2000

Also supports timeshifting, and teletext.

If you capture video, i suggest you use codec 'PicVideo', probably the fastest codec in the world, IMHO. I have not had 1 dropped frame yet, while recording in 768x576x32bpp, 25fps, 48khz stereo.
