Does anyone can tell me why the 1080p60 fed from a DVDO VP50 pro to a Barco BG808s works well on the RGBHV (inputs 4,5 &6) and not on the DB9 (input 3).
Notice that 1080p50 works well on both RGBHV & DB9.
With 1080p60 on DB9 (input3), I get a black screen and the projector shown "SOURSE NOT AVAILABLE"

Question Neutral

Port5 gives you better picture quality in s series, so use it.
I don't even have port3 card installed in my BG808s...

But if you need two inputs, it could be that your source have different sync polarity for 60Hz and 50Hz.
Maybe your port3 card don't have force negative sync enabled or it have some other problem. You can also try to chance sync polarity from your source.

I've been running 1080p from a htpc to port 5. I've tried running my xbox 360 at 1080p and the picture goes all dark and looks really bad, not sure what the problem is. Strange that the htpc works but the 360 doesn't. The 360 works great at 720p though.

I think the highest I could get over port3 was 900p. everything higher looked awful.

There is some chat from Curt on the main site somewhere that says some port 3 cards will not accept 1080p. There is no description as to which port 3 cards don't work though.
