Solve : all movies are very dark, but games work fine??

Answer»

Just overhauled my computer a few days ago (new mobo, processor, vid card, and hard drive).

Only now all the movies I WATCH are verrrry dark, but I've played a few games (DoD, NS) and they look great. So I FIGURED this was a codec problem, and downloaded the k-lite pack, but there was no change. So this morning I downloaded defilerpak, and again no change. I also got the DIVX codec before the k-lite pack.

Anyone know what else I should try?Quote

Have you looked around in what you already have, for a brightness control?
Xvid has one if I recall correctly. PERHAPS others do.

hmm, found some obscure menu in the video card driver where i could affect in-video brighness and stuff, and the gamma was set at -8 and the brightness was at 0, lol

stupid defaults

i changed everything to 50% and it looks great

thanks for the post THOUGH
