Okay, I finally got around to playing with this...
(1) Wow. This is what streaming video should look like
(2) I use
Teksoft's Speedbooster on TCMP: little safer/modest than OC'ing the device. Plus, you can tell it to give "higher priority" to just TCMP, instead of the system. Gives a
little extra juice.
(3) I use Direct Draw for the driver, but Intel X-Scale seems ok too. Preference?
(4) Under settings, you can choose the
pre-buffer. So I put mine at
15%. I also increased the
Audio buffer to
400kb along with "
Override AVI frame rate based on audio" (under "Advanced"). Doing this
seems to keep the audio and video in check. Feedback from anyone else?
(5) Of course you can UPX the TCMP .dll files to make it all load slightly faster.
Any one else have any tips to share?
