I used to play Xbox on an HD Ready 32" Samsung TV. now I bought a Samsung P2450 Full HD 24" monitor so I can play the 360 in my room. The thing that's bothering me though is the display. I bought the monitor secondhand so maybe the previous owner made some bad settings.

What's wrong is that I believe the display on the HD Ready TV was much better, but logic dictates it should be different since I played with VGA on the TV and am now playing on HDMI on the FULL HD monitor.

The display looks a little fuzzy and almost pixelated. But it's not the sharpness setting that's causing this. At first I played Dante's Inferno (which I didn't play on the TV) and I thought that maybe it's just Dante's Inferno's type of graphical design and it's supposed to look that way, but then I played Fable II (which I did play on the TV) and the same fuzz was present, not to mention that the first cutscene was a lot less clearer than I remember.

So I need the best settings. Maybe someone has a P2450 and also plays Xbox on it, or maybe someone knows more about monitor settings than I do.

I need settings for
Sharpness
Contrast
Magicbright
Magiccolor
Color preset
Color tone
etc etc

I'm probably missing a few things and some of the things I included probably shouldn't even be enabled.

Help would be appreciated though.
 
I'm also going to buy that screen. There was only one left on the floor at Matrix and they'll get new stock next week.
Let us know if you get the settings right.
