Warning
This program installs a temp driver while it runs. This is done so that the code can directly access the hardware. This method of direct hardware control has the following possible side effects that you should know about and understand before running this program.
In some circumstances if you select the wrong choices for tuner when setting up the card then the EEPROM can get corrupted etc etc etc
Due to poor coding on our part DScaler can crash. If it does crash then this can cause a BSOD in NT or hanging in 95/98, this crashing has been known to cause disk corruption. As a precaution sync the disks before running this program.
Please do not use kill task to stop DScaler except as a last resort as this can also cause BSOD or hanging.
The stuff in bold particularly worries me. I do not want my disks corrupted. Has this really happened to anyone? If so, what are some alternatives to DScaler that are small and don't install a bunch of bloatware. All I want to do is play video games through the program and watch a bit of television. I'm using a WinTV PVR-150 and I tried to use the last stable version but it does not detect my tv tuner so I am thinking that my card was not out when that version was released.
