HDTV not bright on DVD?
I just bought a Sony KDF-50E2000. The over-the-air HD is awesome and crystal clear and bright. However, my DVD player (in progressive or interlaced) is sharp, but lacks color. It is somewhat stuck on a grayscale I can't overcome. I know how much contrast there can be between the bright and dark levels, but can't achieve it with my DVD player.
Are there any ways I can correct this problem beyond changing picture control, brightness, etc.?
I JUST POSTED THIS ANSWER FOR ANOTHER PERSON WITH A SIMILAR PROBLEM:
RENT A DVD WITH THE "THX" LOGO ON IT. IN THE MENU LOOK FOR "THX OPTIMIZER".IT'S A FREE TOOL TO HELP ADJUST THE SETTINGS ON YOUR TV.
ACCORDING TO YOUR USER MANUAL YOU CAN SAVE THE SETTINGS FOR EACH VIDEO SOURCE (PAGE 59). SO FOR BROADCAST YOU CAN LEAVE THE SETTINGS AS THEY ARE AND HAVE DIFFERENT SETTING FOR DVD.
I'M NOT GONNA READ THE WHOLE MANUAL TO YOU BUT THERE'S A LOT OF CUSTOMIZING YOU CAN DO.
