Am i a victim of progressive scan??? I just recently purchased a westinghouse LVM-37w1 and I am having a hard time getting movies to look good. I just downloaded the wondows 1080p movies and it looks like crap. I am getting a very grainy bright picture when viewing these videos. No matter what video seetings I choose (on the monitor) I can't make it look good. So I think it may be overscanning! How can I get my computer/monitor to play these high def video poperly? I have all the necessary hardware 6800gt 2gig ram amd64 3500+ hdtv lcd screen 1920x1080p
Do you have the proper codecs installed? Don't forget wmv is a windows super compressed video format. It's not made to be viewed at high resolutions. It's made to be viewed exactly as you see it.
I believe I have the proper codecs installed. But wmv is not the only thing that looks like this. DVD's look like this as well. I did a system scan and it says that I exceed the requirements I need to play these 1080p downloads. But everything is way too bright. Even if I adjust the brightness down to 0 on the TV menu the picture looks messed up. This led me to believe it was an overscan problem. Like I said DVD movies appear bad as well, however when I play games the graphics are pretty much flawless. No issues with it being overbright and very grainy. I am connected by the DVI cable and my resolution is set to 1920x1080. Thanks
