Movies too bright

duppsko · 2006-10-07, 13:13

When I start a movie from within MP the screen turns up the brightness right before it plays.
Why's that? How can I stop it?

You have probably set this in your VGA card properties (for video playback). Seen it happen with ATI.

This should indeed be done by adapting the (advanced) video settings of your video-card. For ATI based cards you should use the 3D Color settings. There are a lot of threads about this in this forum. Please do a search...

(and when some dev adds better menu handling, multiple calls to modules and plugins with different options and much better dbase handling, it will be love... ah and a nice 3D front end and inter-module messaging system and...) Don't argue with the founder of Greek Off-Topic Community about taking a thread off-topic. I cannot help it! My webshots album (contains the old version of my HTPC setup too)
