Most people say on this forum that Sky+ should be connected to AV1 and set to RGB but I find that if I set it to PAL the picture quality is better.

Also I only had cheap crappy scart cables so I decided to buy a QED P2110 but I have noticed no improvement.

I find if I switch off XD this stops the flickering.

Are there any other people out there that find this?

Is my screen faulty?

Am I just being too picky?

I would be interested to hear peoples comments.
I found the same with setting the output to PAL, although I though this was my imagination

Has anybody really had a noticeable different picture when using an expensive scart as opposed to a cheap one? I have tried loads now and apart from the component leads for the DVD I can see no difference at all. Surely there must be some justification in spending all the money these leads cost?

Havent tried turning off the XD yet, although I havent had any flickering problems (touch wood).

I was thinking myself, am I just being picky? Ok, so this is not the most expensive Plasma out but when spending over a £1000, plus leads, stands and better DVD players, you are entitled to be picky!
