Has anyone had any problems with the new drivers on windows 2000 and the DVD Player as supplied on the CD working together?.
For some reason on my machine with the new drivers it just hangs on the splash screen, go back to the old drivers and its fine.
For me this one is a bit of a show stopper.
Other issues include the auto scan failing in the same way as the original drivers to find some UK UHF channels, a manual scan works though.
Grabbing a still shows the bit bunching problem that has not been fixed yet though it is on the Matrox bug database.
Mpeg2 recording at full resolution is defaulted to non interlaced.
For those that want to use a TV as the main viewing display there is now the option in windows 2000 to adjust by using regedit 1 parameter under HKEY Local Machine\Ligos\Go Motion
and setting the interlaced to "1" will make it all happen.
Timeshift is still only low res and non interlaced (looking for a way round that one)

Aliasing AGain
I was overjoyed when I saw the new drivers and wasted no time installing them. Of course, the first thing I tried was recording in the remote finding out what Sat Man just said "non-interlace" recording.
I thought this wasn't a big deal, I would just apply the registry entry and that would fix it, no go! Now, there is no way in Windows 9x to enable this feature! Hmm, now the drivers are going backwards. . .Maybe they fixed it in Windows 2000/XP, at least that's what I hope. Anyone try recording with YUY2 in AVI_IO or VirtualDub yet? I'm interested if they fixed the issue in Windows 2000 where the fields were reversed.
