Jerky video with live video
Jerky or distorted video can be caused by two things in your PC
or laptop: a slow CPU which cannot decode the video signal
fast enough, and a graphics system which cannot keep up with
the video decode.
Many times, improving the performance of the graphics display
will fix the jerky video display. Here are some tips on improving
graphics performance:
- Use the latest graphics driver: graphics drivers are often
‘tweaked’ to improve performance, especially the built-in
graphics on laptops. Check the Microsoft Windows update site
to download the latest graphics driver for your computer. For
Dell computers, check the Dell website for the latest graphics
driver.
- Use WinTV v7 Video Renderer settings to optimize
graphics performance: The Video Renderer is found in the
General tab of WinTV v7, and is used to change the display
mode of a graphics card for TV watching. This setting does not
affect any other Windows program.
The default mode is EVR. The other modes are VMR9, VMR7
and Overlay. Each mode uses a different process to render
video. Try each mode and use the one which gives you the best
results.
To use hardware graphics acceleration, put a check in the
tick box Use hardware acceleration when possible. This will
allow your graphics system to use hardware acceleration for
video decode. Note: graphics hardware acceleration does not
work on all systems.

button, then click on the Capture folder. You will see the
settings for image capture under Snapshots. You can chose
between BMP and JPEG formats.
TV Scheduler
WinTV v7’s built-in TV Scheduler allows you to schedule video
recordings. Once a record event is set, WinTV v7 can be closed
and will “wake up” at the desired time and tuned to the desired
channel.
When a scheduled record event takes place, the WinTV v7
application records “in background”.
The TV Scheduler can be found in the WinTV v7 Options
menu. Right click your mouse button in the TV window to see
the Options menu. Click Scheduler. To set up an event for
timed watching or recording, click the Add button.
The items that need to be set for each event are:
- Name: you can add a name to the recording. If you do not
enter a name, the name will be in the channel/date format.
- Channel: chose one of your scanned channels.
- Start time: set to the desired start time. Click on the hour
to set the hour, the minute to set the minute. Note: It takes
about 15
seconds to
launch the
WinTV and
start
recording.
- Duration:
number of
minutes in
the recorded
program.
- Recurrance:
one time,
daily, weekly.

If this setting does not help, or if you experience WinTV not
responding after a channel change, then your graphics system
cannot use hardware graphics acceleration. In this case go
back to settings and uncheck “use hardware acceleration” and
rerun WinTV.
Uninstalling the WinTV driver and applications
Run the hcwclear.exe from the installation CD. Select OK A
black screen will briefly appear and once it has disappeared the
software will be removed. If you now re-start the computer you
will be at Step 4 of the installation.
