How did you get rid of your wires?

wow! I'm heading straight to Ken Cranes (so. cal) tomorrow and looking for one! just for my info this is a native 720p, but it does do 1080i correct?


Nope (Native 720P like the HD70), but here's a HD70 which is cheaper and the bulb is too @ 102":)

Both will downconvert from 1080i to 720P..

See we have the same idea for speaker placement, I just wish I had a large back wall as you do to spread out my rears speakers. :)

How did you get rid of your wires?

I fished the wire up behind the drywall and into the plenum area above the drop ceiling.

I have a Sony KD30XS955 HD CRT and it's supposed to be one of the best HD tubes out, yet my colors and overall picture doesn't quite have that pop that your guys' do. :confused:

also, i cant speak for everyone, but my set always looks better in person, no matter how great my screenshots turn out.

here's my contribution. finally d/l forza 2 demo. at first i couldn't get into it, putting too many hours into burnout revenge has ruined my driving habits but after a while i finally managed to get into this game and man, it's beautiful to watch and play.

here are some shots from the 360 output via components to a benq 6100 svga dlp onto a 115" diagonal 16:9 motorized screen. i haven't fully calibrated my projector for the 360's image as it only has one customizable setting and have it set up for a htpc.

i'm going to be honest and say that the pics make my projector look a little bit better than you think. you can actually see a lot of jaggies on the screen images in person, colors, contrast and black level are a little underrated due to no calibration; but i'm still amazed at how much my game picture has improved due to the 360's HD (720) output. even on an svga front proj, you can see how much of an improvement there is in the image with HD resolutions.

Is it calibrated properly?

I have a Sony 34" 34HS420,not a superfine pitch screen model but it still looks great and it's fully calibrated..blows away most LCD's and plasma's from a pure PQ stand point.

What did you use to calibrate your sony?

If they are carbon brakes, then they are not necessarily "overheating". :D

What did you use to calibrate your sony?

My knowledge of the service menu codes, a lot of trial and error,DVE,and my trusty service manuel guide.;)

all that needs to be done now is greyscale and it would be perfect! but for now it's close enough after fixing the color decoder now all colors are = in color balance it makes a big difference in PQ...

No I don't think it is. I did AVIA on it like a year ago and I went into the service menu to fix the overscanning and vowed to never return again.

I was too scared.

Hey vw195, those pgr3 achievements are pretty tough right. I only have 25 points on that game. I gave it to my friend so he could get some points, he gave it back the next day and said he regretted playing it because he'll never be able to get the 1000 points hahaha.

Yea PGR3 achievements do seem rather rough.. Ive only got 50 points or so from it, but its fun.

Thanks to all for their nice comments. It warms my heart, esp. the wire management comment. Next maybe Ill post a shot of my computer :eek:

Someone please HELP!!!!!!!!!!!! This is what PGR 3 looks like ever since about Fall of last year. The first pic clearly shows the jaggies, which show up in every game but are most obvious in this example. The second pic is of what it USED to look like before the issue. It looks smooth in this second image because it's switched to "Photo mode" and I snapped a picture in there. This issue started when I received my system back from repair for an unrelated issue. When I got it back I was forced to do an update and ever since it's looked like crap. Have received multiple replacements from Microsoft and they finally swapped it out for a brand new one. I'm so disgusted. I also get jaggies on my PS3 but to a much lesser extent.. it's actually playbable because it's not that bad. My tv is a Sony KDSR60XBR2. Any ideas why I'm having this issue?

bull, PGR3 doesn't look THAT jaggy, do you have the sharpness turned up on your tv? that's going to enhance edges a lot.

I have never noticed jaggies in PGR3. I guess I need to pop that baby back in and start playing it again.

Incowboy, are those Polk speakers? If so, how are they?

Yea, they are Polk and I have been extremely pleased with them. I have the Monitor 50s up front, cs1 center, monitor 30s for surround and the PSW10 subwoofer. I love the setup they are extremely crisp and clear. Im not sure you can do much better for $1000. The only thing I would change is the subwoofer, it does well for the money but I will probably replace it in the down the road.

i got the Elite and there is really no difference between the 2, maybe the colors are a lil more deeper but i like how movies are played with the HDMI connection on my HDDVD

do you think the difference would be bigger on a 1080p tv?

personally i dont think its much of a difference. Its not like its going to be in 3D where your going to be like ohhh ahhh wow. It might be a lil sharper thats it. When Microsoft start making games that utilize all 3 processors on the 360 then u will im sure. the colors do kinda look a lil more deeper but maybe im wrong. I do think the HD DVD look a lil better with the Elite.

And 40K+ gamer points - looks like you are getting your money's worth out of that setup. What's your favorite 360 game?

Damn Calvin your a lucky man i keep thinkin my 50" is big but when i see u guys with these 100+ size srceens you keep waking me up. So how does porn look on 138"?. Sick

Impressive indeed. I will really think about getting a projector and screen myself, the pic looks superb on your screen, what kind of projector are you using?

Thanks guys,

My favorite game at the moment is C&C 3 which I'm playing on the xbox and PC (depending on which friends are on).
The combination shown is the Infocus 333 (which is a light cannon purchased here from Jason Turk @ AVS the only place you can get them that I know of ) and the SMX acoustically transparent screen. It looks amazing in person the pictures don't do it justice, I'm extremely pleased with the results so far just have a few things left to finish up the room.

Sounds sweet but what exactly is a light cannon lol. I've never heard of that before, I'm kinda relatively new to the audio video thing but am a bit more versed in some of the lingo than when I first started, but never heard of light cannon. Also the nice deep blacks and overall vibrant color is really nice with your projector setup. I searched it on google and I'm seeing something that looks almost like a flashlight, but how that would be implemented in a setup I wouldn't know.

kicks,

Sorry for the confusion. "Light cannon" is a term for a very bright PJ, they are usually business class but a few such as mine are for the HT environment. The 333 is many times brighter then a usual HT PJ commonly used in most homes so the term "Light Cannon" is one that has been used to describe them. The colors for the infocus PJ IMO are excellent out of the box. I will be getting the ISF certification once the room is complete but I don't think there will be lot to "tweak" on the PJ it is already very close from what I've seen running a few set up disks I have.

Cheers
Calvin

Whoa, what's that Toyota F1 ad doing there? I wonder if that ad wasn't released in the U.S.? I'm guessing that's promoting the upcoming Montreal race?

Ced, I'm not sure if you've posted them before, but can you post your video settings (component) Also, what adjustments did you make through the service menu? Do you have those settings written down too? I have the same tv, and it currently looks pretty great, but I'd like to make it pop a bit more--like it seems yours is doing.

I don't have that same tv, but backlighting any tv can add some visual advantage, some more than others depending on the type of light you use.

how do you get pictures (like the hot girls) in the menu background of xbox menu?

how do you get pictures (like the hot girls) in the menu background of xbox menu?

you need to hook up an external drive(or I thikn a data cd will work too) to your 360
browse through the pictures on it and it will let you set one fora background

A USB thumb drive works as well.

Night time HT with 360 Elite and HDDVD, Pio 5070, DefTech speakers, Sony AV - Cell phone cam pics don't do my setup justice.

which set of lights are the Elite and hddvd?

Thanks guys,

My favorite game at the moment is C&C 3 which I'm playing on the xbox and PC (depending on which friends are on).
The combination shown is the Infocus 333 (which is a light cannon purchased here from Jason Turk @ AVS the only place you can get them that I know of ) and the SMX acoustically transparent screen. It looks amazing in person the pictures don't do it justice, I'm extremely pleased with the results so far just have a few things left to finish up the room.

Cheers

I can't find that PJ on the InFocus website. Is it discontinued?

I can only find an LP330 or LP335 in the discontinued section

settings are

Iris - 2
Picture - 68
Brightness - 53
Color - 31
Hue - G5
Color Temp - warm 2
Sharpness - 31
Noise reduction - off


Black corrector - low
Advance lris - low
gamma - max
clear white - off
live color - off


But my service manual settings wont be the same for you since they is a difference of +10/-10 for all 42a10 in how the service settings differ. example all 42a10 have different defualt settings but yield the same result.. So I will link you to the thread that helped me find learn the service manual and find my settings..

yea for real man, 360 need to make an F1 racing game, i guess Sony might have bought the rights to F1.

Vidmaven,

The 333 is a special PJ that Kodak made with Infocus for cinema.
You can only buy them from AVS that I'm aware of. I tried to do some research and get quotes before I bought mine but AVS was the only place in the world I could find that had them and in most cases even knew of them.

Here is the link on the forum and they may even have some in stock - talk to Jason Turk or one of the other fellows at AVS for details.

http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=644501

The closest PJ you will find to it would likely be the Infocus 777.

daaamn what the hell or how you calibrated your tv?

with a lot of trial and error.. :D

^^mustve been aloottt of errors to make it look that good lol..but seriously what calibration disc did you use?

^^ I didn't use one... I used some recommanded settings from people in this forums and I changed some settings to my liking like.. color and turn on black corrector.. then I pause a pic of a person and played in the service menu to get the skin tones right then I paused it on an black and white pic to adjust warm 2 so it wouldnt have a red tint over the whites and blacks.

i never got that why would people have red tint over natural black and whites

Im not sure but in my case In the service menu I had to adjust "RBIASOF" and "RGAINOF" which was basically a red push for the color Temp

Cedclark, you ever try a white light instead of the one you have? I found that the pure white really enhanced the blacks more.

Thanks Calvin

Yea i never seen T2 in HDdvd in the stores, ima check Amazon.com.

Also, No offense to Cedclark but, all your statements made about Cedclark's pics sayin that its so clear and sharp, I think it looks normal for a HDTV. I have a Pio 50" and my pictre looks just as good if not better. I dont understand why everyone is so amazed about his PQ and pics. Its called HD and 1080p or 1080i on a good Plasma or LCD. Calm down everyone. Also all u have to do is have a good 5 mega pix camera, paused the game and take the pic. BYW his set dosen't look like a 42". If your PQ is not equal to his then y'all need to upgrade your tv. lol. Thats just my advice. :-)

LOL!!! Jealous?

His PQ and pics do look amazing. I think they're just trying to give him some kudos. I'm just curious as to why you're trying to steal his thunder and toot your own horn at the same time. Not trying to start flames, but it seems a bit disrespectful.

I am going to try and capture some screen shots this weekend. Hopefully I do it justice with the camera. Never took pictures of my TV myself with my camera. Without buying extra stuff (i.e. a tri-pod, etc.) any suggestions on taking the picture, i.e. exposure, angle, lighting, flash, no flash, etc. etc. Its a 7.X mega-pixel camera (I forget the x I think 3). Thanks.

Mine come out the best with lights off and using no flash. I really don't think you need a tri-pod, just a steady hand. Anything over 4 mega-pixel should be fine.

JEALOUS???????? thats funny.

listen my man first off if you read properly i got a 50" Pio plasma and a Elite 360 w/HDDVD, so jealous, far from it. trust me.
Yes I agree the PQ is good on his pic but they are not any different from mine and I'm sure others on here. I find it very funny people are so Amazed in this forum from his pics. Does anyone here even own a HDTV?, if you do, how could it not look the same on yours if not better. All it is is a 37" tv with a 1080p connection or 1080i, this is why the PQ is so good b/c the screen is small. This should be the norm for everyone in this thread.

P.S. Wnatabigscreen, where are your pics?, this is a 360 post your pics & tv your using thread, so post your 360 and pics. Here is mine.

Ok uptown193, you are taking this too far. Ya this is a 42 sony 3LCD and my camera is a 4 year old kodak 3.1 mega pixel. And I think he is right. if you didn't come in here and tried to make everything I said a lie then I wouldn't think you were hating. Example I clearly stated many many times my tv is a 42a10; ya I know its nothing special but why try to dis me I only post to keep this thread going but if people like you just want to disclaim everything..Fine I will stop posting... since there is never to see here like you clearly stated later.... :(

Uptown193, people are commenting on the quality of his picture taking, and not necessarily his set-up itself. I think we all know what HD material looks like here and we all know what good quality equipment is when we see it. We also know an immature braggart when we see one.

LOL!!!

Ok bud. Your arrogance is astounding.

My comments to you were based of your picture quality of the pictures attached versus his. If you say it's so simplistic to post a quality shot, why do your images make me feel like I have cataracts?. I know your system and I understood your posts quite well.. A 5070 is a beautiful screen.

That being said: People are commenting on the PQ of his pic, not the PQ of his actual screen (which is still beautiful). There for, you insulting the screen he has is unnecessary and immature.

I have nothing further to add. Rant all you want.

Actually, end the ranting or you will be suspended.

Get back on topic.

Thanks,

Kyser

When I save them, should I resize them? If so, what to? Usually the pictures my camera takes are huge when I download them to the PC.

it depends on your camera

every camera has a different sweetspot for optimal resolution of the pics

I find my camera looks best at 800-1000 horizontally

Very nice setup shazza . Is that an HD Tivo?

oops ... late response. Referring to this one: http://img166.imageshack.us/img166/4606/larascreenshotoa3.th.jpg (http://img166.imageshack.us/my.php?image=larascreenshotoa3.jpg)


Setup includes Series 3 HD Tivo, Toshiba HD-XA2, PS3 and Xbox 360 elite.

Some Shadowrun pics. Sanyo Z4 projector @ 90 inches. I just have a consumer grade digicam so taking shots from a projector is a bit troublesome compared to a TV (light output spread too thin!) but these turned out alright. BTW I love this game...too much hating going around for it, but it's fun as hell.

and one Overlord shot

http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/4061/overlord1jz3.jpg

They are all handheld at like 1/3 second shutter speed but the image stablization on my Canon A570IS does a decent job of keeping it sharp. I remember on my old HDTV I could take good pics with like a 1/30 shutter speed or even faster. :eek:

Hi, I'm new here..although some of you guys might know me from TXB.
Anyways I use a Samsung LE32R51 and a Sony Cybershot DSC-W30 (a pos cam)

I don't remember my settings right now..so if they are nessesary I'll update this post or post em later.

here's some pics of Planet Earth on my current setting which I think works well

What disc are those screens from? I have planet earth on blu ray and have only skimmed through all four discs.

My modest setup with a couple screenshots. Sorry, I'm new to uploading pics, so my screenshots suck compared to other ones in this thread. Using Canon 800is camera. My screenshots definitely don't do the 360 justice, as I think they look great even on my almost 3yo TV.

Pioneer 50" 1120 plasma
Pioneer 74txvi receiver
Toshiba HD-D2 HD-DVD player
Xbox 360 + HD-DVD addon (soon to be returned since picking-up HD-D2)
Pioneer 588 DVD player (mainly for SACD/DVD-audio music)
DirecTV HR10-250 Tivo
APC H15 power/line conditioner
Ascend Acoustics 340 SE LCR + HTM-200 L/R surrounds

Viper98,
Great screenshots. Care to share what camera (SLR or point-shoot?) & general settings you used (e.g. auto vs manual settings)? Use tripod? Using full auto with flash "off" and no tripod, my shots look awful compared to yours, but in reality games look great.

What disc are those screens from? I have planet earth on blu ray and have only skimmed through all four discs.

on HD-DVD the shots look like they're from the "Rainforests" episode. The shots are showing the Fungus's and some kind of disease that affect the ground dwelling insects.

I'm not in the US now but I can vouch for you that those pics look exactly like mine from the trailer. Plus I have a Canon XTi with a lens that cost just as much as the camera a month ago and these SLRs take amazing pictures ... I also think those guys just never seen a professional calibrated set. Great job on the pics btw.

Hey cedclark, you know I hate you right :p J/K I always like looking at your pics and Viper's too.

You never cease to amaze us, absolutely unbelievable. you should go into the photography or calibration industry, it's that good.

........that gave me chills, those pictures of the flowers, and then you saying you don't have a "decent" lens, haha, can't wait till you have a good one!! def a fan of yours and ced's stuff, amazing.

Excellent photos, Your take photos like i do. I am a very scenic shooter. I use a Nikon D40 with the standard 18-55mm lens.

http://www.layddly.com/gallery/d/8381-2/DSC_1013.JPG

Nice pictures, but please be careful because I do not want this wonderful thread to be closed.

Excellent photos, Your take photos like i do. I am a very scenic shooter. I use a Nikon D40 with the standard 18-55mm lens.

Those are really nice pics

truth be told I was going to buy a D40 myself
but then I got a deal on the Rebel XT that I couldn't turn down(only $600 for everything, and that's canadian!)













some PGR3 pics from the vault(I believe these are off my 50" 720p tv using a Sony camera)

Those will be the last pictures I post until I get a new camera.

Everyone getting new cameras now lol. I'll post some pics I took l8r when I finish up my Gallery site. Hey Viper, what type of lens are you trying to get and what types of photos are you interested. If you want spend money check out some of Canon's L series lens.

Personally I think Canon has the best cameras then Nikon. Only because Sony makes basically all the image sensors out there. Canon has the money to do it themselves and their lens are top notch. I bought a EF-S 17-85mm USM IS. Its great for everyday use.

Sorry to get off topic like that but I like photography.

Great pics everyone!!!!! I'm still working one the best way to take pics. I should buy a tripod. The IS helps but I still shake a little too much. :confused: Last pic was before I got the XTi.

gman what os is that you're using?

Masterrh, I am getting those same Polk Monitors, but they'll be used as my front speakers. How are they when gaming? Crisp, muddy, etc. I'm curious.

Hey masterrh, how do you like the Sonos system that you have there? If not for the price my wife actually thought it would be great to have in our house but we cannot afford to get it at the moment. Hopefully like most technology it will become affordable in a matter of a couple years.

just got my new camera pictures coming soon :D

They're pretty crisp speakers, I used to have them as my fronts and I really liked them. Of course compared to the Montages they're not so crisp but those are two different price ranges. I upgraded to the Monitor 50s from smaller Polk Satellites and they were great, you'll enjoy them.

The Sonos system is amazing, best music system period when coupled with Rhapsody. I don't really think 1k is that expensive for the potential this thing offers. Remember you can start off with just a package and upgrade as the music allows it. Then for the price of a CD a month (Rhapsody is 12.99/mo) you can have pretty much any song on demand in either of the two Sonos locations. Finding new music is awesome with the Channels they offer, custom playlists you can download from other users and Artist Radios. It will be the best 1k investment you'll make trust me. If you entertain at all you're guests will eat it up. If the wife is giving you problems about spending that $$ just pick it up at alocal retailer that offers 30 day money back without telling her, then let her use it...she'll be hooked. Best of luck.

funny you should say that

I'm just starting to get in to Photography :D

I went on my first shoot the other day

I just went to one of my local ponds just to test out my camera. I don't actually start taking classes until the summer... and I wont be getting a decent lens for another month or so(I'm just using the Canon kit lens right now)

Amazing shots Viper98. I have a Rebel XT as well and trying to get into photography myself and have been shooting with the kit lens for almost a year now. I'm thinking of picking this up soon though: http://www.usa.canon.com/consumer/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&fcategoryid=149&modelid=10511

And here's a good review of this lens and a few others for the Rebel XT or XTi: http://www.cameralabs.com/features/Canon400D_lens_upgrade/index.shtml

I'm using xp.

oh, doesn't look like xp.

Any advice on how to take good pics of the image on the screen? I know I saw a post on it somewhere, but I can't find it. Thanks!

myself
I shoot with the lights off
use a tripod
and if you are getting overexposed pics set your exposure comp. to -1/3 or -2/3

oh, doesn't look like xp.

looks like xp with a visual style and YzDock (mac clone) on top

coj looks awesome viper especially on your tv.
