Minimum delay

Purpose
In normal mode, the processing (scaling and de-interlacing) in DLP projectors introduces a few frames delay (from input to screen).
Setting the option Minimum Delay to "ON" disables all scaling and de-interlacing in the processing and reduces frame delay of the
projector (from input to screen) to ONE frame, caused by the formatter board (DLP technology restriction). The intended use of this
option is to apply native and progressive data to the projector and displaying it with minimum delay, using the full resolution of the
projector. Other formats will be displayed either unscaled and/or interlaced.
This feature can be used if additional delay in the projector is not acceptable. For instance if a projector is showing the DVI loop out
of another DLP or if an external scaler/de-interlacer does the processing.
How to toggle the delay?
1. Press MENU to activate the menus.
2. Use the ▲ or ▼ key to select Input and press ENTER.
The Input menu is displayed.
3. Use the ▲ or ▼ key to select Minimum delay and press ENTER to toggle between [On] and [Off].

What can be done
The aim here is to always show the resolution of the source independently of the resolution of the DMD panels.
