hey everyone,

i recently purchased a samsung 55'''''' lcd hdtv (ln55c630) and it came with the samsung bd-c5500 bluray player. this player and tv plays bluray movies amazingly. standard def dvd's however look terrible - they are rough and grainy almost to the point of being unwatchable. also some dvds play the movie in a very small box that is cut off on the sides (which is to be expected) and the top and bottom.

i have messed around with the settings of the bd-c5500, trying to set the quality manually to 480i (p?) and changing the resolution to 4:3 and turning progressive scan on manually, etc. i also updated to the latest firmware on the tv and bluray player through their internet. nothing seems to help. looking around on the internet i have not been able to find someone with similar problems with this unit.

i was hoping someone had a suggestion or advice?
