Sorry for my English. I am Spanish.  I have a problem with my HDFURY (1) that I have been time using without a single problem. I take using the HDFURY with my PS3 and another of DVBTerrestrial 1080p capable with my old TV Plasma mod panasonic 37PA30 and always has worked to me perfect.
Recently I bought for my PC, a graphic card asus HD5770, and profit not to obtain image for my old plasmatv. while the blue LED this ignition and continues working well even with the graphic Card integrated in the mother board. My new card HD5770 works perfectly because I have tried to connect it via hdmi to a modern TV without using hdfury and works correct. I have tried many possible configurations of drivers and configurations for my 7 Windows x64 ultimate and itself without results. Please help me to advise some possible solution to me of configuration or fits for my graphic card?
Thanks beforehand.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Fury isn't the issue, but your video card is putting out an NTSC refresh rate/60hz and your TV is expecting PAL/50hz. To troubleshoot, I'd make sure sound via hdmi is off, use a very low res setting with a low interlaced refresh rate and gradually step it up to where you want it to figure out where the problem is.

With that said, the Fury is awesome for devices without analog out, but I'm sure your new video card will do VGA out of the DVI. HDCP is strictly for digital outs. If you use your video card's analog, it will never enter into the equation.

I've personally played Blu-Rays on a HTPC using VGA, component, and the fury1, and I'd say the average user couldn't tell the difference without a side by side comparison. In theory, VGA should give you the best picture of the 3 because it is the only one to provide the full 256bit range of colors.
