DVD + Bad PC = "bleh!"

DVDs look shit on my PC.
I think its mainly because ive got a lame video card, but that doesnt explain why they look like they're in 16-bit color.
You can see where all the colors merge in the background and sometimes it looks really bad.

I realise that someday I'm going to have to upgrade because we all do but, until then, what can I do to improve this.

Even if nobody can help me with the color issue, maybe someone can tell me about "bob" and "weave" and which one is better.



P.S.
Before some noob asks me check my color depth while it is playing...

"I already have"

it's a low-end card, from what i hear.. a year ago people would drool upon hearing about it, now it's "low-end"

but it's hi-end for me, compared to my integrated 8mb sis530, and it'll do the job of playing movies + dvds (i really hope so), so it's all good.

do you have good eyes???


just wondering whether you noticed that when you run dvds full screen and the res changes, straight lines become bumpy on about every 20th pixel....


Some straight lines on DVDs I use appear really chunky but its usually minimal
