    I have both the v2000 and dv1000, and was trying to find a way to adjust the color, gamma, brightness, etc of a dvd playback window in both WinDvd and Media Player. It appears the Intel Extreme's "Graphics Options" color settings do NOT affect any dvd video overlay windows. Windvd's color controls only work for the "color" and "contrast" settings..."brightness" has no effect. In MediaPlayer NONE of the color controls work for dvd.

    On a related note...Is there ANY way to get dvds to play back in FullScreen mode correctly in MediaPlayer? If I go to fullscreen, the controls go away and the video expands a bit, but the video does NOT fill the screen like it does in WinDVD. MediaPlayer is using the Intervideo plugin for dvd decoding, btw.

    Thanks
