Re: Human Benchmark implemented in C++ DirectX9

This might mean two different human-benchmarking standards, but both 1-second and 15-second randomization have merit even if some people disagree; There is merit in both the honest pre-primed benchmark and the honest non-pre-primed benchmark. I'm sure the 15-second delay would have shocking long de...

Re: Human Benchmark implemented in C++ DirectX9

why not go Direct X 11 and implement all of my suggestions, also a proper reaction time test would have MIN random delay be atleast top 0.1% focus time, so that people cant cheat. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/dxgi1_3/nf-dxgi1_3-idxgiswapchain2-setmaximumframelatency I am also ...

Re: [App (Win32/64)] Display Input Lag Tester (no hardware req!)

this is an awesome idea, but I suspect it's going to work better with some keyboards than others. For $5 you can buy a raspberry pi zero and use some free software I wrote to do the same thing, but with much better reliability. While a high speed camera is great, my software also offers ~1ms accurac...

Re: Cause of variable input lag?

I attach my sensor with tape. It's not going anywhere.

Re: Cause of variable input lag?

These are photodiode tests. two different devices (my piLagTesterPRO and the OSSC) have measured this behavior across 5 different TVs.

Re: Cause of variable input lag?

Since nobody has offered a compelling alternate explanation of the drifting input lag I've measured I went ahead and wrote up my explanation in detail: https://alantechreview.blogspot.com/202 ... -dont.html

Re: Cause of variable input lag?

different input lag based on the input is definitely something I've observed. it's because the different inputs (vga vs hdmi) have very different signal processing requirements.

Re: Cause of variable input lag?

Have you seen anything like that?

That would be some pretty fancy processing. Definitely beyond what these older TVs could do, but maybe with newer tvs.

Cause of variable input lag?

I've been testing a bunch of TVs that I picked up cheap on the used market and have found that the input lag on several of them isn't consistent between tests, but differs by up to 16ms. Have other people seen this? I've never seen it mentioned in a mainstream tv review (rtings or the like). Maybe i...

Re: New input/display lag measurement kit using raspberry pi and some cheap hardware

FYI for those of you wondering why you might want to measure your input lag, I've found that displays input lag can vary depending on a of factors. Expected one's like game mode, but also it can depend on other visual settings like noise reduction, or even resolution (I just tested a TV where at nat...
