Looks like Gefen may have an inexpensive edge blending unit in their new Scaler Pro.

This was talked about by MadMrH longtime ago with another Geffen product. Their edge blending is something all together different. It has something to do with Edge enhancement.

I mentioned edge blending earlier. The PT-D5700U has a comprehensive edge-blending menu that lets to define the overlap along the top, bottom, left, and right edges of the frame. You can increase or decrease the number of pixels across the image join and change brightness at that join to compensate for variations in brightness uniformity.
