Pixelated Video with G400 Max
Hi,
(1) When I was viewing VCD using Window Media Player 6.4 and Powerdesk v5.5 the picture display is very dark. This darkness is not changed despite adjusting the gamma properties of the display card. I had to set my monitor to full brightness and contrast before the picture quality is same as that provided by my old card (Real Magic Netstream 1 mpeg card). Is there a way of adjusting this brightness.
This problem has been acknowledged by the Matrox Technical Support -- but so far no solution for me yet ... anyone has any suggestion ?
(2) Pixelation problem with Powerdesk v5.41 onwards.
When I using window media player to view VCD, if I maximise the screen by clicking on the icon at the right upper corner of the screen, the video runs normal (not pixelated -- but I can see the title bars). However, if I play at full screen by pressing ALT-ENTER, the picture becomes very very PIXELATED...!!
This does not happen if I use Powerdesk 5.2 and below.
Anyone had similar problem ?
Your help is appreciated.
My configuration is as follows :-
PIII 667 BE (coppermine) - 133 FSB, running AGP 2x
SD133 128 mb Mitsubishi ram on board
Microstar BX-Master motherboard 440BX
Sony 19' GDM F400 monitor -- 1600x1200 32bit 85Hz
Window Media Player v6.4
DirectX 7.0a
Matrox G400 Max Dual Head 32 mb - driver ranging from v5.1 to v5.5
