Is the movie the kind of thing where you don't have to manually switch between the test patterns, or what?

Sure, that's your test-pattern generating device!

Being serious for a moment (who me!?), I want to use the same source for test patterns that I use to watch content. (You know, those "movie" things?) I could hook up my laptop to generate patterns, but it might not have the same timings &etc. I prefer to pop in a BluRay test pattern disk and set up my projector with that.

Yes and i would do that too if indeed i had a disc for it
See with the XG, the source was the same one used for both PC and bluray player and it looked so close it wasnt worth playing around with it. The Barco seems to make a new variation on every single different source even if the timings are the same.

But you have an excuse on the Barco because you just got it You get a few months of tweaking leeway.

I rarely tweak my marquee just enjoy it
Once I played goldeneye for 9 hours(non stop) then it was on to gran turismo for a hour
I recently have been watching more movies when I can keep my cousins from hogging my theater(they are movie buffs and are jelious of my setup)
Though we all enjoy duking it out in a game on the ps3 at times
