    I have DV5 laptop with HD3200 that I use as HTPC. I noticed really annoying problem with latest drivers 8.563.0.0 A (current) and 8.533.1.0 A if I set the output to YCbCr 4:2:2 it doesn't stick. Everytime I reboot the machine it switches to YCbCr 4:4:4 or RGB 4:4:4 (don't remember which one). Is thre a registry trick or something I can do to prevent it rolling to different mode? I have to use older version of driver 8.476.0.0 A as it doesn't support different modes and simply locks to YCbCr.

    I can write you a script to switch it for you at bootup. I'll need a bit of help from you though.
