When i put up a test patten / grid for convergence up the test patten is wider than my screen by about 2 and a half squares.

When i play a DVD or Blue ray the image fits perfectly on the screen? why is this ??

Is my projector incorrectly set-up??


My projector

Marquee 8000 with all the HD Mods by DraganM.

I am also using the Marquee VIM-FULLHD v3 HDMI 1.3 Input Card.

I am running the projector at 720P 50hz

The grid is the projectors internal convergence pattern right.?

If so its right.. And no need to worry at all.

Its just the H & V total pixels from the source whos bigger than the actual image resolution.

So your raster / grid patter have to be bigger than the image. Thumbs Up

That is normal for a marquee. Always use an external pattern to setup Geometry and convergence. The only time it matches is if the timings of the source and the internal pattern generator are matched.

Thanks...

I have just re-converged my projector using a grid pattern from my DVDO iScan Duo.
