    Hi NightCactus,

    Thanks for the reply.  (BTW, form masters… I did not get an email notification that there was a response!).

    I have recently installed a codec pack to play back my MKVs.   I use Shark007 codecs as well (32 and 64 bit both installed).   I had a lot of problems initially with getting my DTS to play back with MKVs as well as DVR content.  But when I finally clicked on the checkbox at the bottom for Shark007 suggested settings, most things seemed to start working.  I play very little MKVs, so I haven’t focused much on them.  But in my brief tests, I saw no significant video playback problems.

    Do you think the 24fps stuff can be resolved via Shark007?  I wasn’t aware that it would/could actually affect ‘traditional” DVR content, etc.  (I suppose I should have guessed that it could based on the fact that, poorly configured, I lost my DTS/DD playback).

    I am going HDMI directly to my Sony SXRD TV.  I do have a pre/pro processing the audio, but not the video, as it has no HDMI switching built in (it’s “old”).

    I have also checked the WMC settings and I am at the proper refresh rate and resolution… good idea though!

    So… do you think my hiccups with DVR are based on Shark007 settings?  Is that possible?  There is just something funny with WMC coming out of pause and recovering from a 7 second jump forward (going backward seems to be A-OK). 

    And the 24fps thing… you have Shark007 totally fixing that?  What are your settings?

    Thanks!
