I recently purchased a 2405FPW and have been perfectly happy, with the exception of the 480p output on xbox. When in this mode I get a horizontal blur/distortion on all text and lines on the screen about once every second. The picture seems almost like it is pulsing on and off. When I disable the 480p and switch to 480i the distortion is almost completely gone with some just noticable every couple of seconds.
I should also note that in 780p and 1080i it works perfectly fine and the picture is amazing with no distortion.
Am I dealing with a defective monitor? What could cause it to have problems with only the 480p? This is a _huge_ issue as 95% of all my XBOX games are native 480p.
I don't know too much about HD signals and how they would use the wires differently, but I would guess that my wires and the Xbox itself shouldn't be a problem if it works for literally EVERY other hookup and the same wires work for 780p and 1080i. I'm trying to get a hold of a 480p dvd player but I'm not ready to put the money down for something like this unless I know this is the problem for sure. I use the component monster cables and havn't had a problem with them yet.
