tv-out OSD corrupt 50hz/pal

I see there are a number of posts on this subject, but here goes one more. I think the relevant part is that I'm in the UK pal/50hz country etc, but I may be wrong.
Everything runs fine when using just the PC's display. Now if start using tv-out (pvr-350) the story is not so good.
With no ui then it appears to run well. I can still pause/play ffw/rev even though I get no OSD. BUT when I enable the UI I see completely distorted menus and the bottom of the picture on the screen jumps up. A few attempts to select different menus results in a complete lockup of the pc (no recovery except poweroff reboot).
Question does anyone successfully run tv-out with the ui enabled in the UK?(or anywere else that has pal/50hz tv system)
If so what's the trick!
TIA

Andy

Latest Sage trial, pvr-350 (1.18.21.22301),

There should be a sticky put in this forum for all the mods that UK users need to do.

You know, I haven't done a completely clean install of my PVR machine for so long (I just rebuild from a ghost when I want to fiddle), I thought that Sage supported PAL out of the box now. Is this not the case?

If it doesn't then that could maybe explain my problem too. When I use the PVR-350 TV Out all the preview video windows jump and flicker. I was wondering whether it was something to do with the manual edits I made in the past to the Sage config files to get everything working with PAL. Maybe it is.

Any other PAL PVR-350 users have this problem?

Nick.

In a word No. My OSD works fine.

The only manual edit I did for PAL was to set screen height to 576.

The little preview window flickers sometimes but I don't consider that a problem.

After seting OSD on TV out it suggest a reboot.
