My Epson 3010 projector just arrived! - Page 46

Posted the DIP settings in the 5010/6010 thread as well. Hope you can follow it.

You get to this information with the remote:
1) Hold down MENU for 8 seconds, release
2) Hit ESC twice
3) A menu of information appears
4) Hold down MENU another 8 seconds, release
5) Hit ESC twice

Now you should be at a screen where you can arrow up and down, and for each DIP switch see the bit settings of that one.

Whats great is that all 3D vids- isos, SBS, O/U will play without a hitch and they immediately send out the 3D signal to glasses and you have 3D immediately. I also like the fact that you can play with the depth setting in 3D so that you can minimize or exaggerate the 3D effect while the video is playing. You have internet video access, browser, Android apps, its a very versatile media player.

My HTPC was a whole hell of a lot more powerful, but I am glad I was able to get rid of the clutter and have a streaming/playing device contained within the footprint of the Prodigy. And I have owned the Xtremer Prodigy over a month with the new firmware I installed, and I have not experienced unbalanced firmware, in fact, like I already mentioned, the new firmware has given the Prodigy more content and a phenomenal User interface in the guise of a Movie Jukebox.

But after 10-15 minutes I start feeling crosstalk/ghosting and another 15 minutes when PJ is fully hot, crosstalk becomes permanent. Can any one confirm if this also happening with others. Please check your PJ cold start vs fully heat up after 15 minutes. If so what could be the possible remedy (other then replacement) to fix this issue.

you may try to keep the PJ cooler and see if it helps ? i do it by running the fan in high altitude mode and also suck hot air from exhaust vent with an external fan

Got my handyman to mount the screen

Messy isn't it, must construct a better mount for the FPJ it needs to be a bit higher, am stuck with a combo family room/kitchen with the FP on a kitchen counter.
What the H, it works

The screen shots show the Epson above my LG 55LH90, deeper blacks on the LH90 but not bad on the 3010 which has an initial calibration with ChromaPure Prof autocal and the D3 Pro using the FP off screen setting.

Keep in mind that my HT uses the DVDO iScan Duo VP to process all sources so my settings would be useless for anyone that does not have that VP.

The 3010 is connected to the Duo with a Monoprice 25 foot HI Speed HDMI cable

Tests with the Panny 210 3D player running IMax "Deep Sea", "Under the Sea" " Legends of Flight", "Avatar" show excellent 3D performance.

The camera used for these shots is a Panasonic TZ5 9.1 MP with 10X Leica zoom lens:

The shots were reduced using the IRFanview batch processor to 50% height and width to comply with AVS size restrictions.

But enough of that fun...I agree that the ghosting seems to be movie specific rather than how long projector has been on for my epson. I am going to try the monster glasses again as I may have a bad pair...i just didn't notice any difference with them so i'm guessing I got a pair that just didn't work too well...I also think there are some movies...especially the direct tv content...that is going to ghost on the epson no matter what glasses you use as the 3d quality is subpar...probably just the trade off you live with for better brightness of Epson v. the minimal crosstalk, but dimmer, DLP 3d.
