I am having trouble with video playback. I apologise if this is something that has been brought up before. I'm at work so stuck up a post as quick as i could without searching the forums.
Its not happening on every video though. But its not specific to a file type though. Basically the darkness changes. One minute it could be black, then it would lighten, then it would go back to black. It's most noticable when the credits come up. In certain instances the screen is black, but when the credit pops up the screen will lighten up, then go dark once its popped up. This is before the main end credits pop up. As the credits are scrolling it still remains black though.
Its a bit annoying during the main playback of the film. The rest of the colour/darkness is fine during the film and the picture quality is brilliant. Does anybody know if i have to tweak some settings to resolve this??
Thanks in advance for any advice
