[QUOTE="haarvik, post: 44734, member: 19254"] Putting this post under software apparently didn't work so I'm posing it here. I'm sure these questions have been answered already somewhere, but I have a list so here goes: What are the optimal settings for video/dvd/tv playback? Each time I fix one area, the next screws up.
