I've been a happy user of the 32 bit versions, so I thought I'd try the 64 bit Beta alongside the latest 32 bit release.
No problems getting it going, but there are intermittent audio sync / frame drop problems not apparent during the same programs in the 32 bit 0.5.0 version.
This is irrespective of resolution, SD or HD. Strangely it doesn't seem to effect recordings. I need to record more to be certain.
OTOH, a minor problem in the release version where the lower third or so of the full screen display is greyed out (other display modes OK) seems fixed in the 64 bit Beta.

This is not a complaint; I think SmartDVB is a wonderful TV client. Just providing feedback for the 64 bit Beta.

Great software! Although the interface looks just a teensy bit outdated - who cares in view of the rest!
I got a Terratec Cinergy HTC Stick (USB-connection) a few days ago. The delivered software is a Terratec-version of DVBViewer. Alas, took almost 4(!) hours to detect all the available DVB-C channels and channel switching takes sometimes up to 15 or 20 sec. The interface looks a bit smarter - but recording options are close to none especially regarding video/audio quality.

Here SmartDVB outsmarts! Seeking all available DVB-C channels took less than 5 minutes(!) (same hardware, same system), channel-switching is smooth and fast, i.e. instantly!
And there are numerous settings available in the recording section. Have to try those yet.
Keep up the good work!

"...unpretentious digital-tv watch application" - maybe "unpretentious", but for me (i own a Leadtek PxDVR3200H tunercard) it's working in really fullHD, crystal-clear and without any problem, with only 5-8% use of CPU. Thanks to the author!
