ATI OSD flicker
I'm having a problem with the OSD flickering in and out on my ATI box whenever I there is SD video playing in the background. The OSD cuts in and out badly whenever you scroll through shows (sometimes completely disappearing until you press a button on the remote), and flickers quickly when the OSD is stationary. HD video + OSD works fine, and I don't have this problem on my nVidia system. Here is my config:
- Vista Business - Radeon HD4670 - Catalyst 8.12 drivers - EVR rendering - PDVD 8 codec - FSE off - 3D acceleration on Any ideas?

Hi, I had the exact same issue you described as well and I unfortunately cannot figure out what exactly got it to stop. I am now using an almost identical setup to the one you described below. The only thing I can think to try is to turn off the animation system under detailed setup. I know that sounds strange but I think that may be what fixed the issue for me. I will play around with it tonight and report back if I figure anything out.

Switching off animation fixed it for me as well

Yes it appears that turning off animation in detailed setup is what fixes the problem. Are either of you using SaveMC as that is what I am using so I don't know if this is a Sage or SageMC problem. Maybe we should open a bug report?

You need to go back to the default STV and replicate the issue before filing a bug report. Sage supports the default STV, not SageMC.

I'm using a plain SageClient install; no customizations.

I had the flicker with 4650 and 8.12 driver. I recently rebuilt my HTPC with a 780G motherboard, this has Radeon HD 3200 IGP - the flicker in SD and DVDs is gone. This time I used a Hotfix version of the ATI driver, it was released after 8.11 as a hotfix for 4650 because 8.11 were not compatible with this card (this is not the latest Hotfix posted on their site). I am not sure if this is what fixed the problem because the 4650 does more post processing but it is worth a try.
The file name for that driver is ati_vista_8.542_hotfix_br070928.exe
