General Discussion / Re: HELP: Configuring Windows Media Center TV Tuner & WMM for Best Video Quality

« on: September 09, 2007, 03:37:12 PM »

I had software come with my tuner, (same problem WMM not accepting the MPEG) and my file converter makes the quality horrible, download Ulead Video Studio 11, its pretty good for capturing and great for editing MPEGs.

Different reasons can apply here, Windows have in general a very poor capture accellerator, no matter what you use (WMC, WMM) you will get a poor video quality and capture rate.

I have had this problem too, use something that isnt made by Windows such as Ulead or whats ever came with your tuner software. Also dont edit using Windows Movie Maker, it reduces quality and frame rates.

I just wrote out a huge explanation of how it works, but simply put.. The control room feed goes through master before it goes to transmission.

Also, Stephen your pretty much right. Simply put, the control room has a bigger, more expensive and more capability enabled switcher where as the switcher in Master can only support non animated keys with 128 bit text, it can also only perform simple fade and cut animations for lower thirds and keys.

Hmm, I seem to remember up here as well the Catholic schools could do what ever they wanted, when ever they wanted... Very odd and somewhat unfair

« on: September 03, 2007, 07:23:43 PM »

The actual satellite LF comes from Master, however the satellite LDL is added at the satellite headends (Dish HQ and DirecTV HQ) Both Dish and DirecTV obtained STAR systems at different times.
