Is there a way to detect exact hdmi signal specifications using a capture card?

In my case, I have an elgato hd60 s+. I think if I can find out exactly what the signal from the switch is, I may be able to use a custom edid in the elgato software to change the signal in some way to stop the flicker, assuming the output of the switch can be meaningfully changed depending on the ...

Re: How to lower VRR frequency range lower limit on GNU/Linux (Wayland/Wlroots)?

Dumb question, but have you tried checking the other blocks? Maybe not all of the useful data exists in the same block. The advice to check Block 2 specifically was likely written by someone who's monitor EDID happened to store it there.

Re: Linux for competitive gaming and input lag?

It can be done, but it can take some work at times. Expect to lose some performance on maximum fps (0.1 and 1% lows are often the same), and do troubleshooting that you may not have had to do on Windows.

it usually comes down to issues with the anticheat. All of the popular ones (easy anticheat ...

Re: Viewsonic XG272-2K OLED - BlurBusters Verified? BFI?


It has this monitor on Amazon.com and there are reviews of it but the reviews say that Viewsonic forces you to agree to a NDA which prevents you from testing the BFI and reporting it's results or something like that which may explain why the polish review refused to test the BFI and it may also ...

Re: Viewsonic XG272-2K OLED - BlurBusters Verified? BFI?

Not too optimistic about this one. No mention of it on the USA page, no reviews, and no posts from the chief. If this had any major advantages over other oled displays that have implemented bfi on the scaler level, we'd be seeing it in the marketing.

Re: OLED equivalent to Viewsonic XG2431?

Necessary qualifier to this post: not referring to VR headsets, only talking about monitor and TV sized displays.

The best BFI OLEDs I've seen to date (which includes some LG Tvs no longer available for sale) had 4.2~ms MPRT, or equivalent to 240hz motion clarity available at 60hz and 120hz ...

Re: Viewsonic XG272-2K OLED - BlurBusters Verified? BFI?

Tft central posted an article for this and shared portions of the manual, suggesting the bfi can be used between 48 and 120hz. The dip to 48hz - and absence of the higher grade green badge - suggest to me that between 48hz and xhz, the monitor will double strobe. Could be wrong though, maybe it didn ...

Re: Google AI claims that ROG Strix XG24API will be Blur Buster 2.0 + Gsync Pulsar

"AI" makes shit up. Even in times when models like chatgpt are directly plagiarizing a source, it can construct paragraphs of direct quotes that alter or remove context and make it seem like something else entirely.

Re: Less Motion Blur in 60fps 144hz than 60fps 60hz

If I recall correctly, any monitor with pixel overdrive function (so... Basically all of them), the firmware is going to be evaluating the current pixel state and calculate how to accelerate to the intended pixel state on every refresh. This means if you have content locked at 60fps on a refresh ...
