I got some questions that maybe other DHS 2 users can help me with. I have analog cable going into the DHS and an S-Video coming out and into my TV( 32" regular tv). Here they go:
1) Playback of live tv (even recorded live tv) is somewhat jittery. It doesn't even have to be an action scene but I did notice that it is more prevalent when there are bright colors (like daytime in the tv program). Any fix for this, maybe a setting in my video card?
2) The channel up/down button on remote control that came with my system works in increments of two. If I'm on channel 2 and press the up button, it goes to channel 4 and then 6, 8...so on. Same thing when I'm on a odd channel (5, 7, 9...so on). Is this normal?
3) The corner where the power supply is gets really hot on the outside, is this normal? I can't tell if the fan is running or not on the power supply. Also, is there any hardware monitoring program that I can use to get the temperatures?
4) For the life of me I can't get the wireless keyboard and mouse to sync up to the reciever. The maker is Gyration (something like that, I'm not at home right now). I followed the instructions and read the knowledge base article but it just won't sync. Anyone else have this problem?
5) Alienware lists only the AverMedia M150 and M113 cards when I look for updated drivers (thought this might help with the jittery playback in problem #1). But in device manager it lists my card as A169. Are there any newer drivers for this card?
6) Last (but I bet not least), When the DHS 2 is in standby it will come out and record scheduled events but it will not go back into standby. Four hours after the recording has finished the dHS is still up and running. In windows I have set the power managmentsettings and it should go into standby about 20 minutes. Is there a setting in the MCE gui that I need to set?
Thanks for listening.
P.S. Is there a way to increase the encoding bit rate for the "Best" setting?
