[mythtv-users] Washed out color with nVidia 5200

[Carl Alexander]

I second this plea. My nVidia 5700 just doesn't match straight TV. I'm 
not sure how much this is the nVidia, and how much is the PVR 350 
doesn't do as good a job rendering the NTSP signal to digital as the 
analogue tuner in the TV does.

Anyone?
