I just got a new basic pioneer dvd player. The picture is very dark even though i have cranked the brightness control to max. Any suggestions about which other controls to tweak. I've kinda played with the gamma and croma but not much difference.
Do you have Black level set thw rong way? Also grab a THX DVD if you have one in your collection and run the Optimizer for video and see what it tells you, its self explanatory.
Doubt its adaptor, I run the same set-up in one system and have no issues. If there is a reset featute on DVD try that and see if it infact has the extensive picture adjustment menus that alot of the better players have. My Lexicon for example has more adjustments for picture than both HD monitors I have plus Projector, it could be a black level filters setting or overall adjusted really dark.
