I thought we had been over this before? There is Alien and Aliens. There is no anthology! 😛
October 26, 2010 at 2:52 pm in reply to: Re: October 2010 Cumulative Update for Windows Media Center in W #1892You did misinterpret the patch. It has nothing to do w/ the paddingback-to-back recordings problem.
The patch fixes an issue that after time the scheduled recording would start late. I’m assuming from the description that it is due to extended verification checks against the recording history taking too long and delay the start.

Don’t lie Mike, Agatha Christie Poirot: Murder On the Orient Express was your real choice.

Yay. Although now I need to go into the settings and fix all the series I set to record 10 minutes after down to 3 because of that recording issue.
[/quote]The recording bug that the patch fixes would typically take 2-3 years of usage to become apparent so I don’t think many people have had the issue considering the age of W7. If you have a lot of tuners and record an above average amount it may be present sooner.

I’d look at the AVSForums about sounds issues with TMT. I think there are some settings that might have to be adjusted in TMT itself.
[/quote]There are a few known bugs w/ TMT3 that they have an update pending on.
Other times, like you mention you can adjust the settings within TMT3. But the problem is that you need to do it in an awkward manner. To adjust audio settings you need to launch TMT3 from Media Center when there is no disc in the drive and make the setting changes there. You can’t change default settings when there is a disc detected.

btw, I commented to someone the other day that I thought TMT4 (why did they skip a version?) was coming around the corner since Arcsoft has been fairly slow to release updates lately.
Hopefully we will see an update soon though.

I like having both myself. When one of the players have faults w/ a new Blu-ray then the other will almost always work.
FWIW I’ve had more issues lately w/ TMT3 than PDVD10. It took TMT3 a while to fix audio issues w/ Red Cliff and the menu system on certain versions of Avatar.
PDVD10 has a more fluid Media Center integration than PDVD9 and TMT3 with the exception of TMT3’s BDMV folder playback support.
In regards to your comment on PDVD not being “cool” to use. I feel that is in large part due to their removal of BDMV support back in PDVD 7.3.4617.0. PDVD8 was also incredibly buggy and bloated for Blu-ray while TMT2 was a little more lean and stable.

This is a good way to get sub-optimal sound quality when using analog output. Optimal sound quality for Windows 7/Vista is setting the master volume level to 0dB and letting an amp do the volume adjustments. To see the volume in decibels, you must open up the speaker properties, click on the Levels tab and right-click to select the decibels option.
[/quote]A little off-topic but it is interesting to me to see how many sound card vendors still don’t use 100% volume for 0dB. I hate the inconsistency.
