my quest is over
I have installed my new tube, calibrated for 2 days and can officially say the 1352 is not going anywhere anytime soon
I installed my new OEM green, and preceeded to use 1920x800p for my setup being that my screen is 2.40:1, so I am getting exactly the same resolution that 16:9 screens have when showing 2.40:1 movies which is 800 lines P, 1920x800p destroys 1080i and I have my bud Craig R to thank for that, I would have never thought to do that, thanks Craig I woe you one dude ;)
1920x800p hit the spot on the NEC and like I said, it is the same as 1080p at 16:9 but is not as hard on the PJ of course and is under the bandwidth spec
my 1:1 1920x800p pattern is clearly visible in all 4 corners and center and can be seen in center from my viewing distance, which is amazing :eek:
so I am displaying 1920x1080i 2.40:1 movies(which only have 800 lines of resolution) 100% unscaled and progressive, oh my oh my, with my 2.35:1 setup I have no need at this time to look at a 9" CRT, the NEC 1352 is that wicked
uping the resolution also seemed to tame the interference lines ALOT and I removed the fan from the green neck card which seemed to help even more, not a issue anymore :)
like I said my quest is over, time to enjoy my labor, I won't be online as much anymore because I have my HT back now :)
thanks for all the help guys and again thanks Craig for the tip
I will have more to say tomorrow about my setup(scaler etc.) and process so stay tuned, I wish someone could see this though, talk about unreal pix quality :eek:
