[QUOTE="kenwonders, post: 1180681, member: 29743"] Using some recommended settings online I found that the image quality of SD broadcasts looked nicer than my previous LAV software mode + ffdshow upscale. I watched a lot of the BTCC racing on ITV4 on Sunday and thought it was clearer and crisper. I am fairly sure that there was less banding visible. Channel 4HD (Formula 1 later on :) )looked about the same as before, but it is 1080i so less work to do. It is also possible to make it look awful or overload the settings turning it into a slide show. Remember when upscaling in madVR the smaller res videos can use more CPU than larger files, easy to get caught out. I suggest that if this ever makes it into master, that it not be the default. EVR does look ok for +50% users I would bet. Especially if you consider the extra download and custom config. [/QUOTE]
