click "setup" button on the dvico remote while watching the said movie.. and adjust contrast or brightness...this is usually where the problem is for darkness and lightness...
dvico might have different setting than your ps3
*
last time i did change some of the setting n was fine on my plasma.. the prob is that when i change to the LCD monitor in the bedroom then i need to change some of the setting again... so now i just leave it to the default setting.. but that was b4 i try play BDMV... but i will try that again later 2nite.... thanx..

i notice that when i change setting to 1080p/24Hz.. the contrast n brightness level also change.. is this true 4 Dvico? rclxub.gif

Dunno... i know that Dune can play BDISO with full menu support.. 'curi mpyw statement'.. whereas Dvico judder when play BDISO... n most BDMV i've tried dun have full menu support on DVico.. mayb can refer to taukeh mpyw for Dune.. hmm.gif

You sure Dvico 6500 can adjust brightness and contrast settings? I enquired  about this feature recently, but someone told me it couldn't be adjusted.

This is a symptom of something going wrong during the ripping/remuxing.

If the source is from the same point, it should not have differences in brightness/contrast. Especially if the picture was calibrated thru the PS3 the last time.
*
thanks... i do have the doubt of the sources being the same.. biggrin.gif well basically it is 1:1 ripping so i dun think it is possible for thing to go wrong.. one more thing does the DVico screw up when playing 1080p/24Hz? since i need to change the brightness/contrast level whenever i switch to this mode.. rclxub.gif

Comment removed.

Edit: I have to check this again. I will report this back when I have the measurements. Do you see a clear difference with this mode off and with this mode on?

icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

I know now what happen...i've been experimenting... tongue.gif last time when i update Dvico with the pre-release tvix_M-6x00_99.3.126 fw.. the Luminance setting was auto set to 16-235... in this mode whenever played 720p mkv using 1080p/24Hz the brightness/contrast level changes... but when i change Luminance setting to 0-255 no significance changes detected... sweat.gif

Now with the tvix_M-6x00_1.3.158 fw i thought the prob still there.. but when i tried played mkvs n BDMV i do notice they corrected the prob... no more issues.. thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

waiting for anfiel measurement report... notworthy.gif although i dun paham most of it.. laugh.gif

i thought need to set to 0-255..? if 16-235 the menu also would have a slight grey tones.. rclxub.gif

one main factor I can think of = colorspace..  HD movies recorded in REC601 (SD) instead of the proper REC709 (HD)

as for DVICO being expensive, maybe the firmware thing that they are doing seems better (to justify their higher costs) but no way I'm accepting that their PCB board hardware costs 4 times more than WDTV.. sorry I'm from electronics industry.. after seeing their fake DVICO comparisons, I don't see how it their electronics and hardware costs more than a PS3..


Added on August 1, 2009, 10:38 pm

comp sources (like menu) 0-255, when watching video 16-235.... take your pick..  biggrin.gif

bro did u ask ur staff to teardown the Dvico n WDTV? tongue.gif

very hard to change everytime la like that... laugh.gif y need to select 16-235 for movies? hmm.gif

imagine 16-235 range expanded to 0-255..  biggrin.gif  after blame the  LCD TV got serious color banding issues..  laugh.gif


Added on August 1, 2009, 11:06 pmas for the ""Teardown", we in this line visually see also can guesstimate the costs mah.. I mean, in general, those below USD100 board or USD200-300 level boards.. (well it looks like the former.. tongue.gif)

TVIX uses SMD tantalum caps (those yellow ones) sticking from the PCB, that I salute la.. those are costly compared to normal SMD Ecaps
*
gonna try compare later... thumbup.gif

aiseh i thought the 'Teardown' did happen... some reverse engineering... n... something new is born .. whistling.gif tongue.gif

Before this i always judge y Dvico price being on the high side compared to others media players... add a little bit can get.. PS3 (play games,watch movie,surf).. but due to time consuming in converting DTS coded 1080p mkvs to vob/m2ts to play on PS3 n being to split the file every 4GB is not to my liking... that y i bought the 6500a.. expensive.. but just see what can it do for me now.. whistling.gif Dvico FTW thumbup.gif

I guess it's hassle free compared to PS3, but 1500-1600 price is just crazy..

Dune which is a full BD-ISO + BD2.0 player only will costs around 1800 (I think mpyw mention before) now thats value..  biggrin.gif

i got the 6500a before seeing the Dune vmad.gif .. if it is the other case around.. mayb settle for dune instead.. brows.gif
