CoreAVC decoder discounted $3
I just noticed that the CoreAVC decoder is discounted $3 thru early April. This brings the price down to $9.95.

I found the decoder is a lot more efficient for h.264 decoding than ArcSoft decoders.

The discount is shown after you click on the Order button listing the $12.95 price.

I upgraded awhile back.
ATI 4550 on Windows 7-32 (Still no Hardware decoding for ATI)

I thought the picture was better at first but then I started having problem with High motion stuff on the HD-PVR. Have not really played with it since.

I would be interested in people experience with it. Compared to the Cyberlink 8 decoders I use now.

I was never able to get the Win7 decoders to the point where I thought they were as good as the Cyberlink. I also seemed to have stability problems with the beta native recording patch.

I've never understood why they can't support DXVA2 like everyone else. Why do they have to be different and support only CUDA for GPU hardware acceleration. They're basically giving the finger to everyone who owns an ATI card.

Plus, now that Windows 7 comes with a perfectly good H.264 decoder that does support DXVA2, IMHO, there's no real need for aftermarket decoders. I haven't noticed any quality imperfections with it and it works great with HDPVR recordings.

How do you turn the windows 7 decoders on in Sage? When I go into H.264 Decoder Filter my only options are Default, Arcsoft, ffdshow and List All Decoders.

I am running SageTV 6.6.2.218 Client on Win7 HP.

You need to install the native recording patch and follow all the directions in the first post in the beta forum to install it.
