I have just recently build an HTPC using a Foxconn NT-330i w/ XBMC Live installed to the HDD. I have almost everything working but I have one problem and basically why I attempted to build this… I have been using MythTV and a PCHDTV card recording HDTV via QAM and an XBOX1 w/ XBMC to stream. I have been transcoding to a smaller resolution as the XBOX1 just cant play the RAW streams. Hence the Foxconn NT-330i.
So I have the audio sorted out, network going and 1080p at 60hz. I am currently using the XBMCfreak build but have has the same success with the official XBMC live iso.
Problem is the RAW streams from the capture card are having issues. The audio plays fine but the video plays as ~20fps. I don't understand what the problem is and why it isn't dropping frames to keep up. I'd suspect this Foxconn to have plenty of power to play the RAW stream so I think I am missing something. I have messed with other resolution, other video playback options but still cannot get the RAW steams to play. These streams are 60fps for 720p and 1080i.
I'm sure I am forgetting something but anyone have any ideas? Anyone recording HDTV and playing the RAW steams in an XBMC live configuration?
Any insight is greatly appreciated…
Foxconn NT-330i 1.6Ghz Atom 330
2GB Crucial DDR2 800
160 Gb HDD
HDMI to Sharp Aquos LCD @ 1080p 60hz
Audio Downmix to stereo for old receiver
MCE Remote Control w/ usb ir
XBMCFreak installed to HDD (full disk) from USB stick
BTW...still cant get to wake from sleep using remote
