Actually, those in the know can fix that problem. The problem is that the
Hauppauge cards (by default) write their data to the
primary plane of your
video card. This has to be done through the
CPU and uses a *ton* of
resources. What you want is to have it render on the
overlay plane (PCI push).
You can do this by going to the "
Primary" program, and changing it from "Force Primary" to "Allow
Overlay". Voila! 1%
CPU usage, and faster
startup time to boot!
