Brightness setting in GB-PVR?

[Skweek]

Hi all - post #1.

After a few days of wrestling with it, I've got GB-PVR running pretty-much seamlessly and with rock solid stability - and what a great app it is too.

I know this has been asked before, but I havn't found a defintive answer after a few searches - is there a 'global' setting for picture brightness anywhere?

I've noticed that GBPVR produces a slightly over-bright picture - all filetypes, all decoders, DVBT.

I've fixed it with the nVidia control panel, but it means other media players are now too dark, which isn't too much of a problem as GBPVR has everything I need from a media player, and with almost complete functionality of the Hauppauge remote, which even Hauppauge's own software doesn't manage with DVBT, but it would be nice to be able to fire up media player classic for quick previews of videos.

If it's of any interest, these are some of the settings I use;

- DBVT; VMR9 Fullscreen Exclusive (only option with tear-free video on my rig), default audio renderer

- DVD; Intervideo Mpeg decoder / AC3-Filter

- Video files; CoreAVC / AC3-Filter

- Zoom set in config.xml to 1.11 to fill 16:10 monitor

System;

if its just in gbpvr that it is bright then you need to adjust the setting for the video decoder you are using
or in your direct 3d settings on your video card properties this will affect any fse or direct 3d playback/game
for testing switch to window mode and turn off fse play a video open your control panel then tweak that way you can see how much you are changing it by
