[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 1001745, member: 76888"] Quick 5 minute Setup Guide Follow these instructions if you just want to quickly setup the most important settings as fast as possible, for almost perfect playback without any additional explanations or customizations. If you have any problems please see the full guide. Video Card Configuration: We want to disable most of the enhancement options in the graphics card drivers. However, the most important thing here is to set vsync to always on/force. See screenshots below for each type of graphics card. AMD:[spoiler] Open ATI Cayalyst control center by right clicking on the desktop. Change the following settings (as per screenshots) Digital Flat Panel, Scaling Options: Overscan = 0% Note with overscan you must set overscan to 0% for every refresh rate you will use eg 23,24,50,60.. Video, Advanced Video Colour: Everything disabled Video, Quality: Everything disabled (Deinterlacing = Vector Adaptive) Gaming, 3D Settings: Wait for vertical refresh (Vsync) = Always On [ATTACH=full]130447[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]130448[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]130449[/ATTACH] [URL='https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/attachments/nvidiaimagesettings-jpg.135247/?temp_hash=99cdc80aa9418511439d9443112a18e4']NvidiaImageSettings.jpg[/URL] [ATTACH=full]130450[/ATTACH] [/spoiler]Nvidia:[spoiler] Overscan = 0% [ATTACH=full]135251[/ATTACH] Vertical Sync = Always On / Forced [ATTACH=full]135252[/ATTACH] Disable all video + image enhancements [ATTACH=full]135250[/ATTACH] ** Need someone to show me all the settings, so I can make screenshots ** [/spoiler]Intel:[spoiler] General Settings: Scaling = Maintain aspect scaling Media Image Enhancement: Disable film mode detection.
