My basic HT setup used to consist of a Tosh-2109 & a 27" JVC tv. I hooked everything up using the red-yellow-white cables & never really had any problems with any of my discs.
Now, I have a Malata 520 hooked up to my JVC (I plan to buy a better tv somewhere down the line) with similar red-yellow-white cables & am noticing that I'm getting a weird "halo" or "rainbow" effect when there is too much detail in a picture (a character wearing plaids or polka dots, intricate stonework in the background, etc). Nothing too major, but it is slightly distracting.
Now the question: Is this because of the progressive scanning? Is my tv just not able to handle that? (I thought it wouldn't make much of a difference in picture quality) Is the flaw within the discs themselves? In the transfer? Most importantly, will this go away if I get a widescreen tv able to handle progressive scanning? Or is this just the fabled "Edge Enhancement" that I am just now noticing?
As you can tell, I'm kind of confused.
