Hi
 
I have problems with TNT2 and PCTV:
- at the beginning the studio PCTV v3 worked but was very slow because the soft couldn't use the overlay mode
- after that with MoreTV (and drivers around 3.68 and 3.7*) it was just fine ... overlay etc ...
- today I've installed 5.13 drivers and studio PCTV 4 ... it's f****** awful :
* MoreTV don't work any more (error : "the graphic card can't create offscreendisplay")
* during the test phasis with STudio PCTV it refuses to pass the overlay test (and so doesn't work at all)
* strange thing : icons in the desktop are displayed with very few colors
 
I ve been reading news for a while and many people are complaining about overlay etc ... but no solution
 
do you have some advices ? (any values to force in the registry?)
 
 
thanx

well i would say is if it wasn't broke why fix it? go back to earlier setup since these drivers seems to be still in beta stages.

OP
in fact I upgrade because I always upgrade to last version of drivers, softs etc ... (I know it's stupid
 
in fact I tried to go back to earlier drivers but that doesn't work ... I think some stuff have been broken or some data hve been stored in the registry ...
 
another thing quite strange ... I ve installed all the TNT2 drivers, but in the control-panel when I look at the driver tab : the version driver is always 3.69 whatever driver I install ...
