Re: Linux strobe utility

Right. I'm using the Linux i2c-dev kernel driver. This page suggests that there's hope for Mac users: http://www.paintyourdragon.com/?p=43 . I'm don't have a Mac to try it out, though.

Also, regarding minimum strobe duration, I actually can see a difference between 0.167 ms, 0.334 ms, and 0.5 ms on ...

Linux strobe utility

For the Linux users out there who'd like to tweak the BENQ Blur Reduction settings without switching back to Windows, I wrote a simple command line utility to help do this. You can find it at https://github.com/fhunleth/blstrobe . It is nowhere near as user friendly or polished as Mark's Strobe ...

I'd like ...

LightBoost on Linux
