    It tells the MC EVR presenter to set 0-255 instead of 16-235 on the samples.  This is a consistent issue with AMD’s GPU drivers.

    FWIW, I like to turn off most of their VPP.  The defaults blow out the colors and perform way to much NR; it’s great for HQV, but in practice it looks over processed.

    It has been a couple weeks.  For other reasons I decided to do a reformat and re-install of the OS.  I thought I would evaluate for a little to make sure any video issues were not related.  Still the same issues.  It appears Dynamic Range periodically switches from my setting of FULL back to LIMITED.  All I do is flick the Dynamic Range on/off off and on again and all is good.

    So, I understand about setting the registry value you supplied.  This will permanently set this value to full regardless of what I have in the CCC?

    As for PQ, I appreciate the thoughts on turning them all off.  I have been playing with all the settings trying to understand their effects.  Since my beginning with MC years ago I have always been trying to achieve the same PQ as a cable or satellite set top box.  Sadly, not successful yet.  Granted I will never get a 42″ plasma image on my 73″ DLP, but I know it has been better with STBs in past.  Colors more vivid and sharper image.

    I will keep working on it.
