Screen picture/res quality

UK-johno · Apr 9, 2005

IS ther any way to bring up the start settings for GT4.

I feel like I may have missied or selected incorrect setting for my TV. I get a lot of morie in the lines, or jaggels/ some times looks low res.

It makes some tracks impossible, NY i drive on best guess at some points.

Given the quality of the intro screens I think the game should be crystal clear.

ANy help?

What sort of leads/TV are you using?

UK-johno · Apr 9, 2005

32" wide CRT I think 50hz

The input for the image is from the 3 way lead supplied, yellow into tv video phone input and the two stero leads into the amp for sound

What connection though? Leads that came with the console?

sorry we crossed on my edit

Well that's your problem then, you're using a composite connection and they're crap. Go on ebay and look for an RGB scart lead, this basically splits the picture signal between the three colours and sends them seperately rather than all in one like you're using now.

It will only cost you about five or six pounds, you need to make sure you have a spare RGB capable scart socket though as a lot of TV's only have one of them.

I play on a 60 inch screen using a cheap RGB scart and there's no issue with jaggies at all. You'll notice a big step up in quality from the change.

Ok i got spare scarts here. I'll try one tomorrow.

I used the lead supplied as it allows me to run image to tv and sound to my suround amp, there is no sound output on the TV. Ill check all the available connections etc.

Thanks

Get one like this then, it will let you run two audio leads out and still give you RGB.

The only problem with those cables is that you have to remember to mute the sound on the TV, They should fit the 'breakout box' with a switch for where to send the audio.

I use an S-Video cable ( havent got component input) and the jaggies are so much more noticeable for some. yet when I play Tekken 5 its so much clearer.
I think its time to toss out my old school TV ...

hm, sometimes this happens for me too (looks kinda like gt4 is simulating the look of crossing your eyes). though for me, i pause the race, and it goes back to being "normal" and clear. and yes, even when i unpause it.
