FWIW, the device wouldn't work at all with this beta driver in my setup.  Running Vista Ultimate x64 and my 1212 is a Rev C1.

Specific results:  After installing 1.0.5.4 beta drivers by running HcwDriverInstall.exe as "Adminstrator" and rebooting, the device is unrecognized by Windows.  Device shows up with a yellow exclamation point in Device Manager and neither the ArcSoft capture software nor SageTV "finds" the device (naturally, given Windows doesn't, either).

Used System Restore to drop back to 1.0.5.3 and all is well.

YMMV.

http://ftp://ftp.shspvr.com/download/wintv-hdpvr/ir32.exe
Works fine with XP SP 3. Rev. C2.
What is new is when you press the Format Setting Button:
New Quality Meter with Good Better & Best Scale.
Tested with Default setting 9.0 works just as 1.0.5.3

In the encoder properties, peak variable mode and average variable mode are replaced by "Variable Bitrate" with only one bitrate slider.  Which mode is this comparable to?

-edit-

Looks like it's more like Peak Variable, I don't know where it is maxing out (presumably at 20, like before), but the file sizes are comparable on comparable content to what I was getting using Peak with both sliders set to the maximum.

I'm familiar with what variable bit rates are, I was asking about the specifics of the change in the drivers.  I'm not the one who originally tagged the modes that way.

I have just found that the 1.0.5.4 Beta under XP Pro SP 3 causes severe system faults & reboots,
on 2 Computers. I have now gone back to 1.0.5.3 version drivers.

As 1.0.5.4 was a Beta release I did give it a try since Jan. 4, 2009.
Few days ago the Computer was re-booting in the middle of a capture
& was reporting system faults. Used a second computer with 1.0.5.4 Beta drivers &
got the same results. Had to remove all Hauppauge,  Arcsoft software together
with HCWCLEAR. Re-installed 1.0.5.3 drivers & TME 1.0.9.6. Now the system is
running stable. I am only reporting my experience.

At 5, 8 & 18 minutes.
As you are not having any problems runing XP SP3 with 1.0.5.4 Beta,
I think it may be due to hardware & other software installed.
