ScoutsCaviesfan Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I just subscribed to the fan network and began watching OnDemand. In full screen mode, it is quite blurry. Do any of you experience this, and what might I try to adjust in the settings to perhaps sharpen the images? Thanks for any responses!

I'm from Toledo and I'm experiencing the same thing . I'm thinkingthat whos ever incharge of the video recording equipment are using inferior equipment for recording these shows and DCI should be looking into this problem . I've gotta say that DCI has done a great job this year but there are some little bugs that DCI still has to work out and I'm sure that they will > PLease feel free to E-mail DCI and voice your opinion about this situation .

Pinwiz Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 You can't. The full screen videos are based on the same data as the regular window, so it will be of lesser quality on full screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersop Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Get a SMALLER screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiltieKemo06 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Get a SMALLER screen. Yeah but then the corps would have to run around with itty bitty horns and drums to fit in a 15'' plasma! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the quality of the original videos is just fine. They likely used a lower quality for uploading to keep the file sizes to a reasonable level. Could it be that DCI will sell DVD's of the better quality videos later on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assure you that you are 100% wrong about the video equipment used Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustABandMom Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I agree with what everyone else has said. But also make sure you are getting the best performance you can from your monitor - check the refresh rate. (Windows xp: r-click on desktop/properties/settings/advanced/monitor) I did notice that when I was piping it to the big screen tv, I was able to get some improvement by setting the refresh rate to the highest available setting. Can't do that on my computer monitor b/c there is only one setting - not sure why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mixolydian Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 You can't change the quality. It's blurry because of the quality of the video, which is low because they have to stream it...and they want you to buy the DVDs and other stuff.

The picture looks better on my 37" LCD than it does on my 17" monitor (when in full screen mode, that is). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
