Am i getting the best PQ from my setup ?

Hi, custom resolution are totally useless with a fixed matrix panel projector. The only resolution you can use is only 1024 *768, some crazy people has achieved a 1027*576 inscribed in a 1024*768 resolution.


What you can do is modify the refresh rate to 72 or 60 Hz and check some slow pan on a movie to see if the pan is smooth and interruption-free.


YXY, i use it mainly to position the image at the bottom of the screen in order to mask the upper part with a small shield near the lens. I found no othe use for a DLP.


Ah, yes. I also had a G400, changing it to a Radeon VE gave me the biggest improvement since the advent of Dscaler.

Couple the RadeonVE with a dvd player that has Hardware support to radeon (Cinemaster, Cineplayer, WinDVD 3.1) and you will have a new better Projector.


Have fun

So moving from my old Matrox G400Max to one of the ATI Radeons

would be a worthwhile improvment in terms of crisp Picture quality

and motion smoothness?


also

for the purpose of HTPC are all radeon variants the same performance (i only play films on my machine)

if so i'll go for the cheapest.


Thanks

Hi

I've now read a FAQ and buyers guide for HTPC owners looking at Radeon,

the advice was not to got for the VE (too cut-down) but go for the LE (can't find them for sale any more in the UK)

so the next one up with DVI is the 64MB DDR Radeon at around 150UKP


can anyone comfirm the VE version thing please

thanks
