The image quality of videos played on the Xbox 360 has deteriorated since the last Dashboard update that Microsoft beginning this month released. The colors are faded. The problem was already reported during the test period of the update.
Research by Digital Foundry shows that the quality of video played on the Xbox 360 worse after the dashboard update that Microsoft on 6 december release for his game console. The colors are faded, making black and more gray it seems. The Xbox 360 seems to be in a limited range of RGB colors to send out, regardless of the setting on the game console. By the faded colours, the effects of compression, such as macroblocking, clearer to see.
According to Digital Foundry have users already during the beta test of the new dashboard complained about the reduced image quality, but its messages about by the software giant, removed from the forum. Microsoft has no further substantive response to the complaints.
