I have my 5850 installed and tonight I went to watch and episode of sliders (I like that show) on dvd and it looks horrible. I loved watching these on my computer, but now it is all grainy and blurry when I choose fullscreen. At 100% it is tiny in comparison to my 8800gts 320. Plus my 8800 looked great. I was so impressed watching movies on my screen until I tried using this new card. I tried using vlc, but the thing has all kinds of problems with the menu system and then I get these interlacing lines everywhere.
I tried other movies and still get the grainy blur, I also still have the interlace problems in vlc. It is just horribly disappointing.
I am thinking of sending my 5850 back now to get a 470 because I really like watching videos on my computer, but won't if they are gonna look like this.
