HD ready?

Post by Mikeyman64 »

I've got a Scepter x9wg 19" lcd that claims to be "HD ready". I've read about HD ready devices and how they can output signals at 720i, 1080i and 1080p. But how can I get an HD quality video that I download from the internet to run in full HD?

Here's what I have and have done:

I've got the above monitor, an EVGA nVidia 7900GTO, a full featured (and kind of pricey) DVI cable, and I'm trying to play this video in full HD, but when I play it it doesn't look very HD at all. It looks like the video is trying really hard to output HD but it just can't.

What can I do?

Have you tried another HD video? Maybe the video is HD resolution but crappy quality.
