it just seems like any HD-DVD i watch is worse than i remember it being on my 360 add-on i was using before. i threw in Planet Earth yesterday and while previously i had been blown away by the perfect PQ, i found it VERY sub par yesterday. very grainy in dark scenes, and very jumpy -reminiscent of a very poor scaler trying to upscale. i think i have the settings set as good as they could be, i've tried changing the res setting from 720p to 1080i but it makes no difference.

any other A3 owners out there that can vouch they dont suffer from these symptoms? i'm wondering if its a faulty unit, or if its just an out and out POS...?
