Ah - sorry about the spelling mistake - that was rather stupid.

I'll leave it set at 1080i then, but I think you may have hit the nail on the head in that i recall checking the status of the image displayed to find it was coming up as 24fps. I figured that would just affect the refresh rate and not have an affect on the picture clarity?

I'll have a fiddle and see if I can make sure the fps is set high and post back.

Thank for the help so far!

EDIT: I turned off the one of the PS3's settings that seemed to be forcing it to display at 24fps. So it changed to 60fps instead for playing blu-ray.

I just tried 'The Mummy: Tomb of the dragon emporer' (yes, not the best blu-ray to admit to owning). And that's probably one of the graniest I've experienced to date (I thought it may be good quality what with it being a fairly recent special affects film).

I own very few blu-rays as I've not had much positive experience of them over DVDs (with my current set-up). But I tried 'kung-fu panda' blu-ray (rental) the other day and although better than 'the mummy' it wasn't all that clear.

Sonme others:
'Deja vu' - Wasn't very clear.
'The Dark Knight' - not too bad.

I hear 'Wall-e' is a good one to try, so I may get a copy of that.

It just seems that that DVDs (upscaled by the PS3 it seems) appear clearer than the Blu-rays if not little difference so it's somewhat poinless to fork out for blu-ray discs in that regard - which is dissapointing.

Any other suggestions?
