    nvidia has jumped the shark when it comes to HDTV support

    whether 0 or 16 is used to mean black and whether 235 or 255 is meant to mean white black=0-255=white PC Levels black=16-235=white Video Levels normally PCs use 0-255 and almost all monitors expect that video equipment varies, all HDTV can take video level input, many can also take PC...

    nvidia has jumped the shark when it comes to HDTV support

    What does MPC do for the desktop? or games? or photo viewing? Why should be have to live with 0-255 levels getting compressed to 16-235 and not be able to just use the PC with all 8bits per channel? They already have the code in the drivers to send either 0-255 or 16-235 how hard is it to add a...

    nvidia has jumped the shark when it comes to HDTV support

    They still have no user toggle for 0-255 vs 16-235 levels (as ATI has had for years now). Some guy on another forum just asked them about it and they told him that they have known about the issue of not having the option for ages. Then he asks them when they will finally fix it and, get this...

    [Mini Review] 2407WFP to U2410

    I think he must have mixed up backlit intensity with contrast ??? not that that has anything to do with IPS vs VA

    GTX460 and forcing a resolution

    Don;t use 26x drivers they have totally screwed up HDTV.projector support. The last time Nvidia had such support even partially working was back early last Fall. I'd try 258 drivers or 259 at most. (custom res works with those, although there is still stuff broken with them and you may need to...

    nvidia drivers have become such a disaster for HTPC

    That is weird. The 8800 GTX 640MB version (although maybe you have the 512?) didnt even have full h.264 decoding and would often choke up a bit on blu-ray or Canon DSLR video files. Not sure about the 4350 maybe it is too low end to have full decode support? That is a lower card than the 8800...

    nvidia drivers have become such a disaster for HTPC

    Labeling it PC can be useful for PC for some things on samsungs since it disables chroma sub-sampling so you don't get blurry red and blue text but it also kills many of the color engine options so it's not really very good at all to use the the PC label for the input for HTPC.

    nvidia drivers have become such a disaster for HTPC

    HTPC problems: 1. It tends to set the scan rates slightly off desired on many HDTVs for the auto-detected modes 2. While it at least often manages to detect 1920x1080 modes for HD auto-detect modes for many models it fails to detect 1920x1080 for PC auto-detect modes and gives 1680x1050...

    nvidia drivers have become such a disaster for HTPC

    unbelievable but they have been broken for full, proper HTPC usage since October (and since 500 series came out later than that....) Hard to believe but AMD drivers are actually vastly better than Nvidia, at least for HTPC at this point. Also been lots of weird issues with Fermi + AA in quite...

    2D graphics performance

    it would be horrible coding if the CPU was used! yikes that would be like an old MAC, IBM PC clone or APple II junk; even Atari 800/C64/Amiga/Atari ST didn't use CPU much for 2D graphics. I have read that 2D graphics of non-gaming definitely vary radically by card and OS and driver. Sometimes...

    Eizo Foris FS2331

    a few HDTV do seem to get to 4000-6000:1 CR now

    Eizo Foris FS2331

    don't forget it has an insanely better color engine than the 2408 and a proper sRGB emulation mode (that is better than basically any sRGB only monitor)

    Eizo Foris FS2331

    it's not bad at all i wonder if the NEC PA241 isnt maybe a touch better though

    Eizo Foris FS2331

    hmm but My old Mitsub DiamondPro 900u had much deeper blacks than any LCD i've ever had, really dark scenes in a dark room looked better but in a bright room or in brighter scenes the LCDs have a lot more pop

    What to look for when inspecting used 2407WFP?

    I had an early revision and returned it for a more expensive samsung 244t (about $1100 at the time, close to release, i don't think the 2407 ever really sold for $1300 it was a few hundred less than the samsung) since it had a really nasty problem with the overdrive effect and i waited a good...
