Dont know if it works in Vista MCE tho

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00



[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Debug\ehPresenter.dll]

"NominalRange"=dword:1



[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Debug\ehPresenter.dll]

"BoundByNativeSize"=dword:0


Just copy the above and paste it into notepad, then save it as a reg file. Remember to change save as type to all files first. Then right mouse on it / select merge. So it goes into the registry. It may or may not fix washed out colours, if you use a tuner as well

1260710 2012-02-22 19:28:00 I havent either. I dont use it all the time. But according to most sites this undocumented reg hack fixes black in video. Which must look a a bit pale, when watching vids in MCE. This hack makes black look like black Speedy Gonzales (78)
