Not sure what your black level problems are: I am running an ATI GPU and have it set to "Studio" color format, and let it compress all the levels to 16-235. That way I don't have to worry about any decoder-level black level settings. Everything looks the same in MPC-HC, MediaPortal, VMC, etc.

As for my subtitle sync issue: I have no idea why, but in all the videos I've tested the subtitles seem to be a second early. Of course, syncing subtitles seems to be subjective , e.g. maybe some people like to see the words before the person starts to speak while some others (like myself) only want the words to appear while the person on-screen is speaking!

I'm going to play around with the syncing issues some more tonight and let you know how it goes.

[QUOTE="damaster, post: 472708, member: 60795"] Not sure what your black level problems are: I am running an ATI GPU and have it set to "Studio" color format, and let it compress all the levels to 16-235. That way I don't have to worry about any decoder-level black level settings. Everything looks the same in MPC-HC, MediaPortal, VMC, etc. As for my subtitle sync issue: I have no idea why, but in all the videos I've tested the subtitles seem to be a second early. Of course, syncing subtitles seems to be subjective :D, e.g. maybe some people like to see the words before the person starts to speak while some others (like myself) only want the words to appear while the person on-screen is speaking! I'm going to play around with the syncing issues some more tonight and let you know how it goes. [/QUOTE]
