Default Issues with LN40A550 as computer monitor
So i switched to HDMI input on my tv (Samsung LN40A550) from my Video card (ATI 4870) and after some playing around i managed to get windows and text look real good (had to use the HDMI2/DVI input and name it "PC" but now im having issues whenever i play a game with refresh and resolution.

1920x1080p @ 60hz is my default and when i try to game at but some reason it seems to automatically switch to one of the following whenever i enter a game

1920x1080i @ 60hz
1920x1080p @ 24hz
1280x720p @ 60hz


basically anything except for what i actually want, it when it switches to a full screen game it changes all of my settings on my tv (contrast brightness and i have access to sharpness, which i dont on my normal windows desktop) and its all blurry (much like when i didnt name my source "PC")

this issue didnt occur when i was using my VGA input (but HDMI is alot sharper so i want to stick with it) but i have no clue why its doing this
