Default Static line on bottom of screen

Hi All,

when watching TV either from DVB-T or DVB-S card, I have this line running across bottom of screen. Its a bit transparent and not enough to annoy but would like to get rid of it

Have tried changing codecs, change cropping and it still appears. Will installing ffdshow improve this??

Thanks

if cropping does not fix it are you sure it is not your TV? does this happen anywhere else (it might be hard to see in windows if you just have a solid grey bar on the bottom few pixels. possibly also see if it only happens in other directX apps.

I would also suggest you try using the screen size tuning thing but that would probably only do the same as cropping anyway, still possibly worth a try.
