DCS-200 Problem

Recommended Posts

When setting up my DCS-200 I set the output resolution to 1280x800, and my input computer is sending me 1280x720. With a grid test pattern I was able to completely adjust the image to fit both H&V on the screen without losing any of the edges. (Once input the source is detected) What is being projected on the screen doesn't fill the screen vertically, and has black bars on both top and bottom. This also happened when I set the output resolution in the switcher to 1440x900 and the computer to 1440x900, but this time the image itself is even worse as far as ratio is concerned. Any thoughts on how I can fill my 16:9 screen both H&V?

Which input format are you using? I've not had time on the DCS's but if they are similar to the Screen PROII, then it may be that you need to adjust the input to the correct aspect ratio or sizing on the input menu.

 

A bit more info such as the input types might be of use.

I have adjusted the ratio to 16:9 and others to see what fills the best, but none of them fill correctly. That's what's stumping me.

1440 x 900 and 1280 x 800 are both 16:10 ratio not 16:9

 

is the projector a full hd panel or is it scaling it on the projector as this can also lose you some quality/lines.

 

I have never used the DCS200 but have used our DCS100 on a widescreen project with no ill effects, other than being slow and clunky, and you manually having to set the scaler ratio to 16:9 or custom and tweaking it, I would ensure the firmware is updated to the latest as I know they quite often change the resolutions in the firmware.
