I dug out my old H3D MMgamer dongle the other day along with a pair of Terminators and a pair of Elsa style glasses that haven't seen the light of day since I switched up from Win2K to XP. Looking around I took quick stock of the ageing equipment lying around and found an unused Dimension 4600, an AGP 7300GT and an old 32" Samsung CRT HDTV. Still had the Dell XP disc so I put them all together along with a PC to TV VGA to YbPbR converter and the final Nvidia Consumer Stereo drivers and was pleasantly suprised to see the old familiar Nvidia test logo spinning in and out of the display. Of course 60hz 1080i seems to be the limit with this setup, so some parts of the picture have a noticeable flicker, but all in all still a good effect. Also tried out the free StereoMovie player and a sample clip just for grins. Not real pleaseing but may just have been the quality of the clip. I did notice throughout every thing there seems to be an off sync with refresh rate or something. A line slowly creeps up the screen with the picture slightly scaled up as it passes. The lower the resolution I set from the Nvidia panel, the faster it gets, reverseing direction at one point and moving down the screen. I'm just wondering if there's a way to cure this and don't know quite where to start. The chain of devices is 7300GT set at 1280 x 1024 x 32b @60hz (which is listed as acceptable by the converter) Thru the H3D dongle to the converter set at 1080i outputting to the YbPbR cables to the Samsung component inputs which is source set as DTV 1080i. Just wondering if anybody here has ever tried a similar setup and experienced any thing like it. |
