[QUOTE="Scythe42, post: 876135, member: 95833"] For Nvidia with LAV do the following: [B]Setting the Output Color Format:[/B] [LIST=1] [*]Open Nvidia Control Panel [*]Go to "Display" -> "Adjust Desktop Color Settings" [*]Under "Apply the following Enhancements" set "Digital Color Format" to "YCbCr444" [*]Under "Apply the following Enhancements" set "Content Type Reported to the Display" to "Full-screen videos" [/LIST] Just check if YCbCR444 looks better on your display. RGB can result in washed out colors if the display can't handle RGB properly. You usually see a difference right away. If there is no difference for your display stay on RGB. [B]Setting the Video Color:[/B] [LIST=1] [*]Open Nvidia Control Panel [*]Go to "Video" -> "Adjust Video Color Settings" [*]Under "How to you make color adjustmenst" select "With Nvidia Settings" [*]Click on the "Advanced" tab. Set "Dynamic Range" to "Limited (16-234)" [/LIST] Just check if "Limited (16-235)" looks better on your display. If not set this to "Full (0-255)". Especially look for crushed blacks if you don't spot a difference right away. If you can't make out any difference at all keep "Full (0-255"). Always try with different files to be on the safe side. Usually MPEG2 is affected (xvid to some extend). If you still have washed out colors or crushed blacks the problem is related to a codec settings. Shouldn't happen with LAV, though. [B]Setting the Deinterlacing Mode:[/B] [LIST=1] [*]Open Nvidia Control Panal [*]Go to "Video" -> "Adjust Video Image Settings" [*]Under "Deinterlacing" check "Use inverse telecince" [/LIST] [B]LAV Codec:[/B] [ATTACH=full]105968[/ATTACH] [B]Base ffdshow Profiles:[/B] [LIST] [*]1080p = for 1080p content [*]720p = for 720p content [*]DVD = for DVDs or SD MPEG2 content (for TV you might want to create another profile based on this with a different container in the auto load settings). [*]x264 = for newer SD rips [*]DivX = for all the old eye cancer crap, to make them at least somewhat watchable [/LIST] [B]Notes on the Base Profiles:[/B] [LIST] [*]All profiles set Deinterlacing in case the source is interlaced. If it is already progressive nothing will happen. [*]Color Output is forced to RGB32 (if you have CPU issues, set this to Auto). [*]All profiles except 1080p scale to 1080p [*]1080p also does a bit of sharpening [*]DVD does not use "Blur&NR" to avoid loss of detail. [*]x264 adds "Blur&NR" for new SD TV rips [*]DivX adds postprocessing (deblocking) to soften the picture [/LIST] No special settings for TV, as I don't use MP for watching TV. [U][B]Adjust LAV and Profiles as needed![/B][/U] Using Avisynth for scaling/sharpening can enhance stuff a bit more than general ffdshow with the right "scripts". Also gives you more flexibility. But it goes hard on the CPU. Didn't notice a real difference when I tried it some years ago. PS: Postprocessing in MP will only work if you do not use an automatic codec setup! PPS: I use the Shark007 Win7Codec Pack without any issues because I am too lazy to upgrade codecs. [/QUOTE]
