Latest, xmltv for Sage, the admin from http://www.lhsite.hu/viewpage.php?page_id=7 ( Leadtek Comunity) make an xml for Hungaria, Slovacia, Sueden, Romania, that work with WinfastPVR2( default leadtek pvr) and others, like Win Mediacenter.
This is the xml , http://www.lhsite.hu/tv/xmltvro.xml

After i save this on my hdd i import into PVR2.

How to import this in Sage?

I bought Sage v4 a longg time ago, but never succed to work with xml.

No fix for that black line when i click on Fullscreen command?

Even if i do the shorcut key like: ctrl+alt+f or i click in the menu on Toggle Fullscreen that black line appear in Livetv, when watching DVD, youtube, etc.

On fresh install, without those modded themes, etc.

I tried that too and the same problem.

For me i use SageTV with analog tuner Leadtek PxPVR2200 with HP PVA 19 " LCD, no TV at all.
That black line he change position, now it's on the upper part of the screen, until today it was on left part of the screen.

Technically, that's a bug with Media Center.

If you don't have a SW tuner card you can unreg that filter.

I post last night updates for the bug with Mediacenter, http://forums.sagetv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=42410

ehcvr consume 500mb even if Mediacenter is OFF, and 16-20% from my Quad Q9550@4Ghz.
I delete that stvm2ve.ax( i could not unregister, it tell me that filter does not exist, still was in sage tv folder) but problem still here.
Mediacenter does not start at all after SageTV install.
I put ehcvr process to disabled because at every startup it consume 500mb ram and 20% processor even with Mediacenter disabled.

Before SageTV install ehcvr consume 50mb at startup, and 0% processor, something in Sage cracked the Win7 Mediacenter.

I love SageTV for tv-tuner use, but hate to play music in Sage, it's so ugly implementation, i use MCE for music ....now MCE is broken.
I have this bug for a long time, maybe from Xp 2001 version.... still it's there now in 2009.

I found an new thread on msdn for this problem, http://social.technet.microsoft.com/...9-fd938f882b88

I demand an fix for this, pls

I go deep in testing black line that appear on Live-TV when i do Fullscreen command, Shift+Ctrl+F.
If i play with sage window, i hold down left mouse button and drag the window, makeing the window big or small, then that line also change it size.
Sometimes it cover 80% of sage tv live screen, if i make sage window small then that black line goes small.

Ps( a little black line on left of the screen in the second picture)

Another problem, in Setup Wizard, my Leadtek PxPVR2200, Color Calibration,
i could play with these settings, like Color, Brightness, Saturation, but the image remain the same, it's not change at all.

If i set Saturation to 0, the image must be black and white, but in this case is full of colors, i think SageTv does not suport these settings with Leadtek tuners.
Or maybe i could not modify these settings because my tuner has hardware decoder?

Pls look at Leadteks tuners for future SageTV version. An fast email to leadtek to send you some testing cards.
I see on Sage forum 2 romanian users, from a lot of users who have leadtek tuners....
Because nobody could think that Sage work with Leadtek.

When an user enter on an any PVR site like Sage, Beyond, Chris,etc, he look at specification, no Leadteks there.

In some UE countries they are the majority, they fill 90% the tuners market.
For UE they are the best along with Hauppauge.
I do not think that an Hauppauge is better then Leadtek, i speak about normal tuners, not dual, or 4 tuners in one ,Leadtek does not have these.

Thank you.

I am experiencing the same BUG 1 and BUG2 as described with the latest version of SageTV.

It would be great if the "Video always on Top" setting could be saved in the configuration file between sessions.

The black line/bar is just weird, sometime it's vertical, sometime it's horizontal. It does disappear if I right-click the UI to bring up the option menu then hit "Cancel". I was using VRM9 with CC1 on for Live TV or Recordings.

Thanks.

2 BUG with black line, play with sagetv window, drag it making big or small, and that line dissapear.

Still it's an bug.

Report this bug and also this one:

http://forums.sagetv.com/forums/show...936#post381936

to the support.

For nvidia users and Win7, 182.50 has nice collors and sharpness over later drivers....

182.50 is ok with VMR 9 and VMR in Win7,
but later drivers make squares on live-tv in VMR-9 or EVR.

182.50 is no good for latest game like batman, frame-rate drop to 50% compare to latest drivers((

This sounds like a problem with your hardware or drivers in your system. If LiveTV froze for everybody, this would be well known.

[reeven]

Not always do that, but sometimes... maybe 3 days is ok then suddently freeze appear.
It's not my system, then why default pvr, mediacenter, christv, KMP work ok?
