Jon:

Thanks! I had allready done that trick to get my picture semi-usable... 
stress on semi :-). Perhaps I should have "quite bad" instead of "way 
off" :-)

I'm thinking that I might be best off switching to a DVI connetion to my 
tv... hence my previous requests for MPEG2 decoders w/ DVI 
recommendations... :-)

Thanks,
    Mark
