Optoma GT720 Owners for Settings and 3D hardware setups, For all GT720 related like setting, setups and hardware for 3D playback
Hallo,
I wanted to combine all those random treads on this Optoma GT720, Optoma EW533ST/DW531ST as i see a lot of ppl got it now why not have a one stop tread for all the newcomers and for sharing settings, 3D setups and view on this model.
I get about 100" screen from a Throw @ 1.3/1.4 Meters, and i plan on using it for 3D Blu rays, Whit out the d3-XL 3D link box, the way i plan to connect it all is,
From a HTPC > HDMI> Optoma GT720 in DLP 3D mode,
DLP glasses "Ultra clear 3D heaven DLP glasses" they about the same as the Optoma or Xpand DLP glasses just cheaper:
Ill fully update this tread when i get the glasses from the u.s they are in the Mail...

My setting :
are for now just factory setting in > Movie < mode, i haven't got around to change a lot of stuff yet as i haven't fixed the PJ yet, i think tho that movie and game Mode settings are the best out of box, Game mode for ambient light, and movie mode for rooms whit no or low light gives a better picture, and i have the lamp mode to std for longer life.
My setup :
Optoma GT720
HTPC /core i5 760 /AMD HD6870 *10.12 Driver /Blu ray drive /4gb Ram / >Connected via Hdmi to the GT720 in 720p @ 120Hz for 3D or normal 60Hz for normal 2D.
Hdmi cable are a 10m high quality one
Software is TotalMedia Theatre 5
3D glasses are Ultra clear DLP from 3D heaven
My thoughts on Blu ray Movies are they look good in 720p - 1080p scaled down, but oc this is not the best 720p PJ out there but it do combine a lot of useful and neat stuff, like 3D gaming and 3Dmovies , whit a really Short throw ontop.
So picture quality are fair for the money spend "i gave 590 Euro for it, from Germany import" , ill post some un-useful pictures of the screen soon, just because we all like to see them.^^
For 3D once i set it to 720p @ 120Hz in the Amd CCC panel the 3D modes are unlocked, DLP Mode >Nvidea Vision Mode, you cant access the modes whit out @ 120Hz input.
Ill upload some pictures when i get a chance to take some, that will be soon tho,
So post your Setting , Setups, and Pictures if you want too, have a good time whit the GT720.^^^
It sold at Scan for 537£
Hers a Youtube video of a French guy that test the GT720 in BD , patterns and Grey,gamma ect.

Disclaimer; from what i have gathered the Optoma EW533ST Projector planet and OPTOMA DW531ST @ 399 from RS are the same internals, and the RS one have a different name bc its only a 1year warranty, thats what the optoma support told me,
if you got one of those do post your findings in this tread too, 3D, picture quality and settings.
