Ok, so...
*sigh*
Since it's been over a year since I've last run actual video through this thing, I seem to have forgotten its other problem. If the video being displayed is too dark (seemingly an average of the whole picture), the image becomes bright and washed out, and the retrace lines show up. With the test pattern, the contrast knob is right about in the middle, and it displays perfectly. With any other image, yeah pretty much ANY other image, if it's not mostly brightly colored or white, this happens. The darker the image, the worse it gets. With any letterbox video (because of the black bars) it's terrible, and no amount of contrast adjustment makes it better.
Imagine you're watching a tv show. With every scene change, the contrast of the picture gets changed.
I feel I should also mention that depending on the video, again, the darker it is, the more buzz that's audible in the audio. This problem isn't really an issue when you're watching the tv - it's not noticeable. But I thought I should mention it as it might be related.
Thoughts?
