So what is the needed data rate for HD?Ed in Tampa wrote:Yep! that did it. Must be my video card. I'm on high speed internet and it works fine on my wife's newer laptop. As soon as I click HD off the video moved smoothly.
Interesting!
My bandwidth is 10mbps and I'm averaging 9.8 Mbps. However I don't think you need that much. My old XP desktop ran the video real choppy until I clicked HD off.JPG40504 wrote:So what is the needed data rate for HD?
Turning it 'off' helped, but still somewhat jerky at times. That allowed me to 'see' what I was missing.
WiFi might be my 'issue'. HD works fine with a usb tuner etc.Ed in Tampa wrote:My bandwidth is 10mbps and I'm averaging 9.8 Mbps. However I don't think you need that much. My old XP desktop ran the video real choppy until I clicked HD off.
I then tried the same video on my wife's laptop using the same cable speed but the laptop is only a year old and it ran fine even with HD on. The Laptop is connected by WIFI which produces a sightly lower connection speed.
So the connection speed was not the problem.
I figure the problem is the video card. My desktop has an ancient intergrated video where the laptop has a much newer one plus I it has a lot more memory avail.
Might be time for me to replace my desktop. Then the question becomes Windows or Apple, Laptop or Desktop.
Would love to have an IMAC with Apple TV and a 16G IPAD on the side. I would then give my windows stuff to the grandkids.
