I have a series of single-screen levels that all use a darker palette.
On the emulator, they look great. Moody but bright enough to see everything clearly.
On my NES using a LCD TV, however, there is a weird issue. Some of these levels display as moody but bright. Others, on the other hand, are incredibly dark. They are all using the same palette and there is no issue on the emulator.
This has happened on two LCD TVs. I have discovered it's something to do with the LCD TV auto dimming the picture on certain screens. When I adjust the volume, the screen brightens to its beautiful self. But otherwise, I have no way of controlling the TV's auto-dim.
Anybody else have experience with some screens looking darker than others when playing on an actual NES using an LCD TV?
