    What sort of quality issues, apart from washed out colour ?

    Generally, most people set their brightness and contrast too high, and their colours either too rich, or not rich enough. If the colours look good on the PC, and washed out on the TV, I'd suggest it is a settings issue. Either your monitor has the colours set too strong, or your TV not strong enough.

    As for quality issues, PC monitors are progressive, TV displays (tubes) are interlaced. Fine horizontal lines can flicker or cause moire effects which won't be apparent on your PC. Usually a gentle gaussion blur (only slight) or small vertical motion blur will fix these problems.

    The vertival motion blur = 2 , fixed the problem.

    I noticed that flicker on a slide show I just made and was wondering what the deal was. That's a good tip.

  5. Also, it's very important to encode progressive, not interlaced, when doing photo slideshows for DVD. All the flickering vanishes when you do.

    The player will still create interlaced output from a progressive source if the playback device (i.e. your TV) is not progressive. The same shimmering artifacts will occur.
