(1) How does the TV allocate its memory for each input? The TV has memory
locations for each input type and display resolution. This means that DVI with 1080i may
be a different memory location from DVI with 720p depending on the parameter. You
need to change all inputs and resolutions you will be using to achieve the desired result.
To do this you must select the input while in the SM, change the values and save them
before leaving that mode (PRO...) or input or resolution, or the changes will be lost.
(2) Normally, I leave the SAT-200 in 1080I Mode, should I do this or let it auto
switch (Variable 1), in which case, will there be seperate tweaks for each resolution
(1080I, 720P, 480P)?
Note: the SAT200 only outputs 480I if you set it to Video 1/2 (S-Video) which is
connected to Video 1 (This means that the GWII is receiving 480P or higher except
in this mode. And it means that the Cinemotion on the GWII is off unless you use
the Video 1/2 setting of the SAT200. I leave my SIR-T165 in 1080i mode for this very
reason. Some of the memory locations are different for each resolution. I have been
experimenting with different resolutions on my STB and I prefer 1080i for 1080i sources
and it does not seem to make much difference on others to let it up convert.
(3) Is there a way for the GWII to display the input mode (1080I, 720P, etc) in
normal operation (I thought the KF-60DX100 did this)? Not that I know of.
(4) Would a DVDO iScan Line Doubler help on all inputs into sony GW2 50xbr
other than HDTV component that looks fine. Would the DVDO help clean up
compressed regular satellite channels and clear up artifacts so NBA games look
detailed and clear? doubt that the DVDO is going to make much difference on cleaning
up those compression artifacts. I believe the SM tweaks would help much more than the
DVDO..
(5) I recently read a report on the previous version (60DX100) GW1 system. In
there the report stated that the GW1 would accept a 720p input but it would down
convert it to 480p then upconvert that to 1080i. The result being the loss of 240 lines
of resolution. You guessed it, does a GWII do the same thing or does it convert 720p
directly into 1080i?
This is not a problem with this set
(6) How much misconvergence are you seeing on your GWIIs? I see very little
chromatic aberration (color fringing) on my set maybe 0.5 pixel. I do see a faint ghost
image about 4 pixels offset to the right whose intensity changes with the pattern intensity.
It looks like a drop shadow effect. None of these effects are noticeable at my normal
viewing distance. The drop shadow is observable at about 5-6 feet. The color fringing is
observable at about 1 foot.
