I have a 5870, I usually use it with an lcd monitor and the colors and everything look fine the way I have them set, but my lcd died and I have been using it with my 32" HDTV. The colors are just "off". I cannot seem to get them to look the way I want them to at all.

Can anyone give any recommended settings in CCC for instance to get the image a bit better if anyone uses their pc with their HDTV and not a monitor. I feel the contrast is too high as the image feels blown out, but when I turn down the contrast on my tv I cant see the image, it becomes too dark just by taking the contrast down a bit. I feel I should leave my tv settings the way I have them since I spent a while getting them to my liking with my ps3 and 360 and adjust the card settings via CCC but I am a bit lost in their for some reason.

Any videos or calibration dvds you'd recommend to try and get the image right? I used on on my hdtv but forget what the hell it was.

edit: I lowered the contrast on my tv and turned the blacklight up. looks a bit better but the whites still look too bright, but the dark parts of images seem too dark.
