Doesn't work here, Eddie.
FWIW, I'm using a G5 PowerMac 1.8GHz, and a KDS Visual Sensations 17"  
Monitor - non Apple monitor.  That's probably the reason.  I'm  
connected from the CPU case to the monitor with that doo-hickey that  
converts from pc-style connector to Mac-style.

Also, I don't think that raising the brightness on the monitor will  
have any effect on the playback of my mpg's.
