Hi all I am wondering if anyone can tell me which iScan DVDO scalers can take bluray source ie (1080p @ 24fps) and can output 1080p @ 48hz (2:2 puldown)? I have read that my G90 will not accept 1080p @ 24hz and I don't want to display blurays at 60hz (3:2 pulldown) because of the stuttering effect. Can all models do this or is it only restricted to certain models?

Thankyou

Not sure about the DVDO's but the Lumagen HDP, HDQ's will accept 1080p@24 and will up it to 48. But really you should scale that image for Blu ray scope movies to 800p@72 or 817p@72 the lumagens will do this for you no sweat!! less bandwidht for the extra smooth pans of 72 hz is worth it.

its called Active area Scanning: Craig rounds a G90 owner and pro calibrator Engineer discusses it here:

one thing though, not all have RGBHV outs, they do have DVI so you need a DVI to RGBHV cable unless you have the Moome HDMI card in your G90, the you can go DVI to HDMI straight to it.

Since I do not own my Iscan HD+ anymore, this is from memory. But I think you could do a 3:2 pulldown from a 60 Hz source and play at 48 Hz (or 72 Hz for the matter). I am not sure if the newer models accept 24p.

Vp-50 is "first" model that can do real (source locked) framerate conversion. Lesser modes can do something..but not real source locked framerate conversion´s.

Do you guys know off hand if the VP50 will take 1080p/60 and convert it to 1080p/24 properly?

How much of a role does phosphor persistence play in how much flicker you get?

Also is true to keep porches small thus decreased retrace time and reduce flicker?

Whenever I tried 48Hz dark scenes looked great….Until a bright scene then its flickler city… UCK!

I also wonder some people are more sensitive to flicker. Just like some people see rainbow effect on DLP’s and others don’t.

It will not. The Lumagen VISION series will do excellent IVTC though.

I think it's a case of some being more sensitive like others.Personally I run blu rays at 1080p48 hz and see no flicker at all,I've tried really hard to notice them too.DLP is another story,I see rainbows no matter how hard I try not too. Shocked

Yep DLP is like that for me too. Even the newer set's. I was watching one at a store that had hockey on it. All the players has a trail 3 bodies deep.

Yes the Reduced Porches are the Key to reducing flicker...

I also try and keep the Projectors RGB shift adjustment as close to centered 128 on mine & use the horizontal shift adjustment which is basicly A porch adjustment in the VP50pro to Help Center the Picture on the Raster...

Doing this aids in helping to acheive zero drift...


Cheers....

Exactly !
I'm also using 1080p48 (@116,8MHz pixelclock) mode for watching HD material for years on my G90.
I've been using HTPC and now BDP-83/HD-XE1 through VP50Pro scaler (1080p24 -> 1080p48). Also tested on VP50 from 1080p60 to 1080p48 conversion with success.
I didn't see any flicker, thank to the reduced porches.

John
