I recently got this new laptop for work with windows 7 and all this new stuff that thats the same but looks different. I'm adjusting slowly.
We were watching some DVD's on it today, it is hooked up to my TV with some cable but I don't know what any of this crap is called. Anyways, I noticed that any DVD that I put on for the kids looks weird. Hard to explain but the best way to put it is that they look cheap. The thing that gets me is that when I watch the same DVD on a real DVD player, it looks normal.
Case in point, I put in spiderman 3 for my son and he is watching it for the 1000th time and I've seen it quite a few myself. Watching it thru Power DVD DX with "true theater" ( I have version 8.3.1.6029) just looks wrong. It seems like I'm watching a documentary or something. Something is missing but I can't put my finger on what. The movies just don't look right. I've tried it with true theater on and off but it doesn't make much difference.
Curious if anyone out there has any idea what I'm talking about and if there is a way to fix it.
