video file playback quality

[Achelos]

hello there, its rob here, hope all is well?

I’m sorry to bother but I just want to find out if my wiimc is working correctly if someone wouldn’t mind answering a question I have?

I have a 4.3e Wii and when playing AVI files, don’t get me wrong the picture is watchable but it is not quite DVD quality, its a sort of blurry or blotchy type of picture (cartoony maybe sometimes), not completely clear anyway, so what I want to know is if it is normal for wiimc to be producing that type of quality of picture or is there something I can do to improve it.

Thank You in advance for your time on my query, I just wanted to know to settle my mind

Regards

Most AVI files downloaded from the internet aren’t DVD quality. You notice it more when it’s on a TV rather than a computer screen because it’s blown up to a bigger size.

Also, it depends on how you have Wii hooked up – composite or component. I get excellent picture quality out of WiiMC – even if it isn’t HD.

Thankyou everyone for your input, by the way tantric, is your wii hooked up through component (is that RGB?) then? is the quality better through RGB at all and do i need a seperate lead for the audio?

ignore what i said about the audio, just looked at a component cable for wii and noticed the audio leads a already part of it so i’ve covered that, any other comments are welcome and very much appreciated……..Thank you

Well I’ve now purchased a component cable and there is a considerable improvement so all is good and I must say thank you for your help, it is greatly appreciated.
