Got everything working (350 via chips etc except DVD)

So I finaly got everything working well with my EPIA ITX 933 board. System is doing the TV stuff but but cant seem to get DVD working. I am set for 350 as my primary output for TV functions (UI enabled) and I have an svideo connected to the TV out from my EPIA motherboard so the DVD decoder will put video out through a PowerDVD player (I know that the 350 wont do encoded DVD's). I get a blank screen when I select play DVD from sage, but when exit sage and use just powerDVD it plays fine. (out the video out built on the motherboard).

In the DVD settings for Sage do you have it set to Overlay for video renderer? And Cyberlink for the video decoder?

Right-on your Epia set it to overlay and you should be good to go on your DVDs. Also set your video decoder specifically to Cyberlink (or PowerDVD-however it shows up) so that you'll take advantage of some hardware acceleration built into the Epia boards.

Success!

I gave up on using the PVR 350 put and switched to the EPIA TV out function. Now all works well (video quality is not quite as good). I am using 3d acceleration, overlay and the Cyberlink codecs. So now I guess I am using the 350 for encoding the recorded files and the built in mpeg2 decoder on the EPIA for playing the files? Is any hardware accelration used when playing the DVD? This is only a 933Mhz box but it plays great. Thanks for all your help

Andy
