I have had this video card for about 2 months now and have installed, and re-installed the drivers several times, including the most up to date from the ATI website. Now everything works great except one thing. When I use TV output (as a secondary device with Theater mode selected) I seem to have a problem when watching any video with an overlay.
If I want to watch say a recorded TV program, or a DivX movie file in Windows Media Player (or choose your favorite viewer like PowerDVD, I have tried a few), after a few minutes (sometimes 5 minutes, sometimes 15-20 minutes) the computer will lock up. Since my initial installation I have had this problem and I know that this can't be expected behavior.
Just wanted to check and see if anyone else has run across this type of problem and have a solution. The XP error report claims that DirectX has hit an infinite loop. I have never heard of other complaints about this and I know that other people are using this card for TV out, so there has to be something wrong here.
