What is DCDi® by Faroudja?
DCDi® by Faroudja is a video mode algorithm that stands for Directional
Correlation De-Interlacing. It was initially designed for fast-action
video-based material. Its general purpose is to reduce jagged edges along
diagonal lines caused by interpolation. Utilizing this algorithm, DCDi does
not simply weave together two fields of video that match. DCDi creates
new information through interpolation which "smooths" the diagonal
edges. DCDi constantly monitors edge transitions and fills in any of the
gaps that need smoothing.
I have the FPD2185W connected to my notebook's VGA port and I see no
image on the screen.
You have two options:
If your notebook supports dual displays, you can use both your
■
notebook's display and this monitor in extended desktop
multi-monitor mode. See Windows Help to learn how to enable
multiple monitors.
You can also use this monitor as your primary monitor and not use
■
the notebook's screen. Notebook computers typically have an F
key combination that lets you toggle between your notebook's
display and an externally attached display. On Gateway notebooks,
this key combination is F
row of keys. See your notebook user guide for more information.
When I connect this monitor to my notebook while the notebook is in
Hibernate mode or Standby mode, the EzTune software does not work.
When the monitor is connected when the notebook is in Hibernate or
Standby mode, EzTune cannot recognize the monitor. To solve this
problem:
Close EzTune by right-clicking the EzTune icon in the system tray,
1
then clicking Exit. Restart the EzTune software by double-clicking
the EzTune icon on your desktop.
If Step 1 does not solve the problem, save all open documents and
2
restart your notebook.
When I am using clone mode, why can't I control this monitor with EzTune?
Clone mode is used when you are displaying the same image on your
notebook's screen and on an external monitor. EzTune does not support
clone mode.
