  1. what is the resoultion of the tv? only series 2&7 olevia tvs are 1080p. you may have a scaling problem. outputting 1080p to a 720p display that can't properly do the job. try different output res on the ps3 and see if that helps.


  2. Try other movies because the film grain effect is in HD too, so it's super sharp and crisp. Watching movies without the grain effect will probably be more enjoyable.

  3. Aww, that's a bummer....So what do YOU THINK is Bad??

    The OLEVIA or the PS3 or the Monster Cables?

    Here's the answer you didn't expect....

    None of the Above...although I WISH it was the Olevia..

    You're not the ONLY one that sees DOTS....

    It's just the nature of the Beast...something Falls short in the entire system due to the complexity of the system overall....

    And then you get......DOTS

    DOTS from h**l !

    DOTS that ate Detroit !

    DOTSilla  vs  Mothra !

    One big indestructible monster to p**s off all the Perfectionists....

    Dotsilla vs Perfect-O-Troid.....

    We can easily guess who loses in this arena.....

  4. It's possible you have a technical issue ... but much more likely you are a victim of advertizing. You know the stuff that screamed that BLU-RAY HAS 6X THE RESOLUTION OF DVD ... etc.

    Garbage. First of all the increase is 2.25X not 6x (1080/480=2.25). And even then while some Blu-ray movies give startlingly clear pictures and great sound, all too frequently the mastering was poor, the original movie was filmed on poor film stock or the director intentionally filmed with unrealistic (but artsy) colours or intentional grain.

    The result is that while Blu-ray will always provide some improvement relative to DVD the overall result is often inferior to what many might expect from a much more expensive disk format and on (to most people) a much more expensive player.

    I suspect you issues are movie related not equipment. Try an animated movie like Cars (of course the DVD looks great too).

  5. This is called film grain and is typically intended. Sometimes it can even be added to a movie to capture a certain style. "300" is the most notable case of this I can think of on blu-ray.

    Blu-ray's higher resolution means artifacts such as film grain are easier to see.

    Nothing is wrong with your setup.
