PLEASE HELP! Dell 3007wfp LG H20l GGW

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hia, this is my first post here, hi all!

I am having major problems playing BD, here is the problem.

I bought an LG h20l GGW bd drive, thinking it would play on my 8800gtx + dell 3007wfp rig, to my dismay it did not. Then I found out about the anydvd hdcp fix, BUT although all my movies play, they have are NOT HD quality. The picture is sort of fuzzy, as though i was playing an old VHS! I tried fiddling with powerdvd and even bought an 8600gts but neither has fixed this quality problem. The resolution seems ok though it's not clear or stretched.

updated firmware, nvidia drivers to 169.25, powerdvd to 37.30.

Is it the settings in powerdvd? I have tried fiddling for HOURS to no avail, or could it be my drive? Any help will be MUCH appreciated! My last hope is to reinstall vista 64 and try everything afresh...

Are you using HDMI or VGA connector to your monitor?

[Riverside666]

it's the resolution the native resolution of that monitor is something crazy like 2500 by 1600 far from 1900 by 1080.

^ He's probably right. Go to control panel, and try 1920x1080 resolution.

Make sure you're on digital connection: HDMI or DVI-D.

Thanks for the replies guys.

It's running over dual link dvi from the graphics card to the monitor. I have dropped resolution to 1920 but the fuzz/poor quality is still evident...

You're going to need a high End Card or dual cards to avoid the lag maybe I'm not even sure what the highest end cards can do but I do know that the computer is struggling to pull your desktop resolution native and then a move that's native is 1920 by 1080 or whatever the 1080p is on top of that resolution. That's very demanding on the video card and that where the problems are. I'd try to adjust the resolutions around and see where it performs best but again with a monitor that has a native that high you really need HIGH END videocards. This is the sole reason why I have not moved to that monitor yet and am still using a 24 incher.

This should hopefully answer your question.

I'm using 8800gtx, very high end, only the ultra 8800gtx is better. I tried using an 860gts to no avail because that was saidto have proper hdcp support. PLEASE REMEMBER, it's not the resolution, it's the quality that's the problem!

From what I understand, most cards, even if they're HDCP are not HDCP via Dual DVI. Is it possible to try using 1 DVI and lower res.?
