[QUOTE="elsmandino, post: 1011038, member: 111675"] Hi there, I cannot believe that I have not come accross this particular thread before - it is just what I have been looking for. I am hoping to go throught the guide, from start to finish, over the weekend and see if I can get a perfect set up. Just a few things to clarify, if I may: 1. Does this guide presume that you are going to be outputting sound to a 5.1 amp? 2. How do all the settings for the average flatscreen TV fit in with those in Mediaportal or on the PC itself? For example, I have a Samsung LE40A656, which has got so many options but in particular, a setting called "100 motion" plus. This is recommended for sporting events as it apparently helps to reduce smearing but has the drawback of creating the dreaded "Soap Opera Effect" with films. There are three presets that can you program into the TV - Off, Sports, Cinema and Game. Ultimately, you can fine tune each but the Sports one puts the 100 motion on whereas the Cinema one would not. My question, really, is whether this guide is aimed at getting the perfect picture on the TV at which point you never touch any settings again - i.e. Mediaportal does all the processing or is the idea that I still need to change the pre-sets, depending on what the type of program it is.
