[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1202839, member: 82144"] Far from it! I [I]do [/I]believe you when you say that setting makes TV look better. I just don't believe that it's the right solution. There should be another way to get the same good-looking results for TV, and at the same time get good results for other videos. As above: I believe you. If you think that, you've misunderstood me, because I'm not intending to say that. Yes, I'm definitely saying that the fact that TV looks better when you use 1080i @ 25 Hz is an indication that something isn't right. I'm saying that because 1080p @ 50 Hz would normally look just as good. Again, I don't doubt that the issue is real and valid. You don't have to prove that to me or anybody else. :) I'm trying to get you to approach the problem from a different perspective; to realise that changing the PC output to 1080i @ 25 Hz is effective, but (in my opinion) not a good solution. Not good because it doesn't work for non-1080i videos. I'm trying to point you towards a better solution; one that will give you great looking video across the board. Are those stats coming from the TV or from Plex though? If they're coming from Plex, there's a very good chance they're saying that [I]the input [/I](ie. the TV stream) is 1080i... which would be the same as for MediaPortal. The difference in result (ie. the reason Plex may look better than MP) could simply be that deinterlacing is working with Plex whereas it's not with MP. That's entirely possible, because deinterlacing depends on codec settings and other things. To reiterate again: I believe everything you've said, including that Plex looks better. My response is that there are reasonable explanations for all your observations. I think the next step is to get log files on the table. Not from a perspective of you trying to prove that the problem exists. Rather, from a perspective of confirming how best to resolve the problem. [/QUOTE]
