[QUOTE="damaster, post: 475820, member: 60795"] Ok, just to be sure I'll do the following test if you promise to do it as well: - Get AVS HD 709 1.3 test patterns MP4 version [B]and[/B] AVCHD or PATCHED version: [url=http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=948496]AVS HD 709 - Blu-ray, HD DVD, & MP4 Calibration - AVS Forum[/url] - We'll only be using the "Basic Settings" title, first chapter. It's the [I]Black Clipping Pattern[/I], a very low APL pattern for observing black-level on a digital display. - For this test turn your TV's brightness up all the way because we are really just trying to determine what output levels we're getting out of the HTPC. You can set it back to the calibrated level once we're done. - Run the MP4 version of the Black Clipping Pattern in MPC-HC, note the flashing bars you are able see. - Run the AVCHD/PATCHED version of the Black Clipping Pattern in PowerDVD (mount or burn the ISO first), again note the flashing bars you are able see. - Run the MP4 version of the Black Clipping Pattern in MediaPortal, again note the flashing bars you are able see. Please post here the flashing bars you were able to see in each of the scenarios above. I'll do the same over the weekend. [/QUOTE]
