[QUOTE="BobMysterios, post: 258235, member: 62150"] [b]Finally achieved good color[/b] I have this setup, its been rocky. 4200+/2gig/latest ATI drivers I have had issues with many things, but finally got it stable. I am using ffdshow for video processing. I had been using a ton of filters but it never produced a good image. I'm using the component out as my tv (which is dying) only has component in. After months of tweaking I think i got it. 1. From ATI tray icon - Wait for Vertical Refresh - ON unless application says so 2. in MP - VMR9 - guassian quad filtering - non square mixing 3. in MP - No EVR but .Net3 is installed The component output has a heavy saturation and a slight red push, to fix i did this 4. ffdshow picture properties RGB Gamma - red set at .97 - everything else off 5. ATI CCC component saturation set at 86 6. ATI Avivo video (which i'm not using so not sure if it has any effect) - contrast set to 108 This produced the best picture I've ever seen - no blooming, no glaring. I also get no tearing (which i had prior to step 1) and no judder. One last note. I run 800x600 resolution as the TV is 4x3 and I just watch xvids that have a low res. I use ffdshow to resize to 800 wide. And do these things in this order 1. picture properties (as shown in #4 above) 2. AVI Synth from a post here ColorYUV(levels="TV->PC") SetMemoryMax(1024) AssumeTFF() all checks 3. Sharpen - unsharp mask - strength 20 4. Deband - threshold 1.2 5. Resize & Aspect - specify horizontal size - 800 - always resize - no aspect ratio correction 6. Subtitles A question for those in the know, is this a good ffdshow order? Hope this post helps. If you're using this mobo w/ component your saturation is likely way high. I do have a long component run, perhaps that is causing an issue. [/QUOTE]
