Hi, I've been having a lot of problems with image quality in MediaPortal, especially with all DVD and AVI. I could never understand why my video always looked washed-out, because in Windows Media Player the quality is always great. I started playing with GraphEdit and realised that the only difference between the graphs being generated was that MediaPoratl uses VMR9 and WMP does not. Knowing nothing about video I decided to do some research on the web and quickly found out that my problem is related to VMR9, and that it is related to how bad my old Nvidia (GeForce FX 5200) graphics card is handling VMR9. I have not found a solution for this yet, and was hoping that some of you that understand VMR9 and the problem with Nvidia would be able to give me some more detail and tips on how to resolve this. Would a new graphics-card sort out my problems (which one), or are there some settings or drivers that I can use to resolve my problem?
