I am not talking about 3d ghosting during interlacing or page flipping, I am talking about ghosting on my windows desktop with Eye3D Force. I use 1280x1024 at 85Hz horizontal refresh rate and if I have the Eye3D dognle hooked up I get very bad ghosting on my screen, ie. everything shows up again about 1.5mm to the right of the original screen. The ghosting stay on unless I go down to 1024x768 and 70Hz horizontal refresh rate. I have tried it with 2 video cards (Radeon and GeForce2 Pro) and I have a 19" KDS monitor with Sony Trinitron tube. The ghosting diesappears as soon as I disconnect the dongle, but it is a pain in the butt to do so every time I'm done with gaming.
Is there any product on the market that can be turned off totally when not in use so it doesn't affect the ideo signal at all?
I am very satisfied with the glasses other than this problem but this seems to hurt it's quality rating bad in my view.

The Eye3D-Force is quite good in this area. I saw much worse.

I just tried the Eye3D Force again with following frequencies:

1280*1024 @ 75 Hz
1600*1024 @ 75 Hz
1024*768 @ 100 Hz

There seems to be little impact on the quality. At 100 Hz it's not very sharp anymore and there is a very very weak colored shadow on some edges, but nothing as bad as you describe. There may be a problem with the cables or connectors or even the Force-box.

Ask i-Art support if it makes sense to try a replacement.

Products which doesn't affect the video signal at all are VGA-boards with dedicated glasses-connector, like the ASUS-Deluxe boards and certain professional boards with DIN-3 glasses connector.

The Revelator should have little impact too, since it's just a dumb cable without electronics in the way.
