PPE - Pinnacle PCI Performance Enhancer What Is The Problem?

Uploaded by

PPE is a tool that attempts to fix problems like dropped or bad video frames that occur during video capture or output on Pinnacle video editing boards. These problems are typically caused by insufficient PCI bus bandwidth due to other devices consuming too much bandwidth or incorrect BIOS PCI settings. PPE changes some BIOS PCI settings in an attempt to cure the dropped frame problem in most cases, but may not help or could make problems worse in some cases. The document provides instructions on installing PPE by running the executable file and restarting, as well as deinstalling it through the control panel if issues occur or it does not work.

PPE - Pinnacle PCI Performance Enhancer

What is the problem?

Pinnacle video editing boards like DC10plus, DC30, Studio DV/Studio Dvplus, Studio AV/DV, DV500, PCTV Sat
or Pro-One require a certain bandwidth on the PCI bus to transfer video and audio data. Without that, problems
like dropped frames or bad bad frames may occur during video capture or video output.
Such problems are typically caused by other PCI devices consuming too much bandwidth, and/or by wrong PCI
settings within the BIOS setup.
The PPE tool attempts to fix these problems by changing some BIOS PCI settings. In most cases it cures the
dropped frames / bad frames problem, in some cases it does not help, and in some cases it makes the PC work
worse than before.
It needs to be used to run a Pinnacle video editing board in a PC using a VIA mainboard chipset.

When and how to use PPE?


If you see the problems described above with your Pinnacle video editing board and want to attempt fixing this
with the PPE tool, install it by running the ppe.exe file. Restart your PC to activate the new settings.

How to deinstall PPE?


To deinstall the PPE tool in case it causes problems or does not work, use 'Control Panel' / 'Install/Deinstall
Programs', select the PPE tool, and click 'Add/Remove'. Then restart your PC to switch back to the default
BIOS PCI settings.
