I'm running at 1440x960 on my Barco Graphics 808 and it looks pretty good. However the picture isn't as sharp as I'd like, sometimes looking a little out of focus. Some of this might be to do with the fact it hasn't been sset up by Roland yet, just going through the initial settling in period and getting the final tweaks next Friday.
I think the main problem is running at above 1280x720 on an older projector is causing the scanlines to overlap and thus softening the image. I've tried to get powerstrip to run at 1280x720 but it only acheives High Colour at that res, and not true colour. Jeff thinks this will be ok, and from what I've seen I tend to agree that the picture looks sharper but colour wise it is identical.
I also think i need to adjust the colour using the sliders in WinDVD as I seem to be getting great blacks, but they're not holding too much detail.Anyone got an idea on the best settings, or more importantly, anything I really don't want to change?
Basically I want to get HTPC set up as well as possible before Roland comes back so that we have a sound base to work from. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
