video/resolution settings

[grogking]

hi
i am having a bit of trouble with my screen settings.
the back grounds on tv are really bad , its hard to describe but the shading doesnt blend in and there is a visable difference from where it goes darker to lighter instead of being smooth.....does anyone understand what i mean and how to solve it on my vu duo running blackhole 2.0.3

cheers

ive messed about with my settings on tv and vu duo but still no luck

try a different hdmi cable,yes i believe your trying to say picture is not crisp and clear,also does tv screen need a good clean as you would be surprised to see the crap removed from some.

hmmmm
they work when i click on them?

yes i see it is not the best,check all your connections,i would still try a better hdmi cable to see if it improves or post what settings are on use on box and tv someone might spot something.

the problem has just started in the last week.
and there are so many settings i wouldnt know where to start...most of them are just default though

[grogking]

hmmm ok after extensive googling i think its my tv and its false contouring.....i will start a thread elswhere!

no mention of anything can be a difficult fix if you are even using a hdmi?

yeah mate....i thought it was maybe a setting on my box but it seems not and i cant find any answers to sort it :(

The first thing to look at is turn off all picture processing modes on your LCD/LED/Plasma such as Dynamic contrast, HDMI Black level, MPEG noise filter. Just so you know they could be labelled something different on your set.

But this is a good starting point

ok
i had a thought and played a dvd and the picture was perfect so its definitly a setting or faulty box

[cactikid]

using the same hdmi cable?
