FAQ for Viewsonic Short Throw 3D DLP Link Projector PJD5352

3D is giving me headaches and causing eyestrain - What can I do?

If you are experiencing eyestrain or headaches, it could be due to excessive depth amount or improper convergence setting.  Unfortunately, most full feature films such as 3D BluRay discs do not allow for depth adjustment.  However, PC based media playback and 3D Video games most always have an adjustment for the amount of depth (separation) and convergence (focal point of the in-to and out-of screen balance of the scene).

We recommend to first attempt to adjust the depth:

  • In-game adjustment, use the shortcut keys to decrease the depth amount.
  • If you are new to gaming, start at the default 15%.

We recommend to adjust the convergence if depth adjustment does not help:

  • In-Game Adjustment, use the shortcut keys to adjust the convergence point and push objects further away and into the screen.
  • Try various convergence points by adjusting the scene in-to or out-of the screen using the hot keys until a comfortable range is found.

Lastly, always consider that virtual stereoscopic viewing places additional fatigue on the muscles that control eye movements.  This fatigue will go away with time and is a matter of physical conditioning of your eye muscles.  People with faster visual tracking may be able to experience greated depth settings with more comfort than people with slower visual tracking.  A good example would be to compare the eyes of a two different professionals: the eyes of a NASCAR driver compared to the eyes a receptionist.  Generally speaking, the NASCAR driver will have more exercised and more conditioned eye muscles allowing them to track the motion of objects faster than the receptionist.  The NASCAR driver will most likely in all cases have a more pleasant experience than the receptionist when looking at virtual stereoscopic images for the first time.

 

Warning: If eyestrain and headaches persist, discontinue viewing in stereoscopic 3D mode and consult a physician.  Certain physical vision conditions or impairments may cause discomfort when viewing stereoscopic images on a 3D viewing device.  Certain physical health conditions may cause shutter-type 3D glasses to be more un-comfortable than polarized-type 3D glasses. 

What 3D viewing distance do you suggest for my size of screen?

Suggested Viewing Distances for Various Sizes of Screens

  • For 22-30 inches diagonal  suggested viewing distance of 18-24 inches
  • For 57-73 inches diagonal  suggested viewing distance of 6-15 feet
  • For 80-120 inches diagonal  suggested viewing distance of 8-25 feet
  • For 30-50 feet diagonal  suggested viewing distance of 40-200 feet

Where can I buy compatible 3-D shutter glasses?

Compatible 3-D shutter glasses can be purchased from our TRU3D on-line store.  We currently offer many varieties of shutter glasses.

Can my 3D DLP projector support 3D TV broadcasts or 3D BluRay Players.

Check the exact specification of your 3D DLP projector to see if HDMI 1.4 is supported.   As of June 1, 2010 - 3D DLP projectors that do not have HDMI 1.4 cannot be used to display 3D TV broadcasts or 3D Blu-ray discs.   These projectors may support these applications with the use of additional hardware at extra cost.  There are certain high end 3D BluRay players that may allow for manual selection of the 720p 120Hz 3D Format over HDMI 1.3, but it is not currently available.  A PC is recommended for playback with current 3D DLP projectors that do not have HDMI 1.4

What is a 3D DLP projector with 3D DLP Link?

Using the inherent speed of DLP technology, select projectors can output video and images at an astonishing rate of 120Hz, allowing you to show full screen, full color, stereoscopic 3D. The 3D effect is generated by splitting this signal into two standard video streams, one for each eye. Using DLP® Link™ technology, the 3D glasses synchronize with the image on screen to filter each stream to the correct eye. Your brain then combines the two streams to make them jump to life. Optoma 3D enabled projectors can only display 3D images when 3D content is delivered to the projector from a PC with software able to generate a 3D image and a graphics card that supports 3D display. Typical applications may include 3D educational software and 3D design and modeling software. Currently, not all 3D DLP projectors can be used with 3D TV broadcast systems or 3D Blu-ray players. If your 3D DLP projector is not currently supported with 3D BluRay, don't fret, it may support these applications in the future with an additional hardware cost. 3D viewing – requires the use of DLP® Link™ active shutter glasses (sold separately) and a computer program that generates a 3D image.

How do I connect my PC to a 3-D Ready HDTV or 3D projector?

Newer graphics cards have a HDMI port instead of a DVI port. In this case, simply use a HDMI cable to connect the PC directly to the TV.  Make sure to consult your TV's manual to check if a specific HDMI input must be used for 'PC' mode.

For older graphics cards, the DVI output from the PC's graphics card must be connected to the TV's 3-D compatible HDMI port using a DVI-to-HDMI cable (or a HDMI cable plus a DVI to HDMI adaptor).  Be careful to make sure that you use the correct input.  Some older Samsung and Mitsubishi 3D DLP HDTV products may require you to use HDMI input 3 or the HDMI input also labelled as PC input on the back of the 3D DLP HDTV.  Some 3D ready projectors may only support 3D on the analog VGA port, for these products you will need a DVI to VGA adaptor for your graphics card. 

Once properly connect make sure that you have activated a 3D output format within the chosen software on your PC to output in a 3D format that is acceptable by your 3D HDTV. For example, some products may require 3D DLP Checkerboard, 3D 120 Hz frame-sequential, 3D side-by-side at 60Hz or others.

 

My XpanD X102 glasses do not seem to be picking up the sync signal?

To ensure functionality, check the list of official DLP Link certified products.  If your product is not on the list, then it is most likely that your 3D DLP product is completely compatible, but may have settings option that interfere with DLP Link technology.

It may be possible that a Dynamic Contrast setting on your HDTV or Project could be interfering with the DLP Link functionality. 

Follow these steps to trouble-shoot settings on your 3D DLP HDTV or Projector:

  1. Reset your picture settings to factory defaults
  2. Turn Off ALL Contrast enhancements such as Dynamic Contrast or Game Mode
  3. Make sure that any additional picture or images enhancement features are turned Off
  4. Make sure that you are running at the NATIVE 3D resolution for your product. 

Will my 3D DLP HDTV or Projector work with the XPAND X102 Glasses?

The list was last updated in May 2010

Below is a list of known 3D TVs and Projectors that are compatible with XPAND X102 glasses.  If you own a 3D DLP HDTV or Projector that is not on this list, the chances are that it will still work as long as it is a 3D DLP product.  Samsung, for example, released many 3D DLP HDTVs that are not on this list that do work just fine, however, this is the official list.

Do I have to turn 3D mode 'ON' for my 3D DLP projector or HDTV ?

Often, many customers do not realize that they must turn 3D to 'ON' within the menu of the 3D DLP HDTV or 3D DLP projector for it to work properly with all hardware.  Most 3D DLP HDTVs and 3D DLP Projectors have a 3D Mode that must be activated in the menu or your 3D DLP link eyewear may not function properly.

Can an Acer Aspire AS5738DG 3D laptop run a DLP projector?

In short -

  1. Yes, if you use XpanD X102 glasses with your 3D DLP Projector and install Stereoscopic Player
  2. No, if attempt to use Nvidia 3D Vision kit with your 3D DLP Projector.
  3. For 3D DLP 120 Hz Projectors, we recommend Nvidia 3D Vision Ready Laptops.

In order to enable your Acer Aspire AS5738DG 3D Notebook for 3D DLP Link projectors at 120 Hz, please read below.

The best 120 Hz 3D playback software option with your ATI based laptop:

  1. Stereoscopic Player by 3DTV.at - Provides Software based 3D at 120 Hz

In order to playback 120 Hz 3D for a DLP Link 3D Project, using software page-flipping do the following:

  1. Install Stereoscopic Player from Peter Wimmer.  You may download it from the TRU3D software area.
  2. Start-Up Stereoscopic Player
  3. Configure the 3D output as Software Page-Flipping
  4. Close Stereoscopic Player
  5. Connect your Acer 3D Laptop to your 3D DLP projector via HDMI or HDMI to DVI adaptor.
  6. Configure your desktop resolution on the Acer 3D Laptop to the native resolution of your 3D DLP Link projector.  Make sure to select the 120 Hz refresh rate.
  7. Open your media file with Stereoscopic Player to playback in 3D at 120 Hz.
  8. Use XpanD X102 DLP Link based Glasses

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Your playback resolution and performance with Stereoscopic Player and the Acer AS5738DG 3D Laptop may be limited due to only currently supporting software-based page-flip method to output 120Hz video to at DLP Link based projector.  We suggest that you go to a local store and test a specific 3D DLP projector with stereoscopic player on your laptop prior to making a final purchase.

Details -

You will experience limited performance with a 3D DLP projector at 120 Hz with your specific laptop.  The Acer Laptop can run a DLP Link 120 Hz projector with the right software installed, but due to limited hardware support for ATI chipsets, you may experience performance issues and stuttering with high quality media when the output is set to 120 Hz page-flip 3D.

Concerning other possible laptops, we recommend an Nvidia 3D Vision ready laptop for running a DLP Link projector at 120 Hz with hardware acceleration for lossless HD playback.  The XpanD X102 glasses will work alongside the Nvidia 3D Vision IR Emitter without interference since the XpanD X102 glasses sync directly with the 3D DLP Link projector.

Does my DLP projector work the XpanD 102 glasses

Yes, the X102 glasses work with the 120 Hz 3D DLP projectors such as the Optoma HD66.  Concerning DirectTV connectivity, we have not yet recieved an answer from the cable companies regarding support for 120 Hz HDMI 1.3a 3D DLP projectors.  Please note that the complication is due to the 3D DLP Projector requiring a 120 Hz page-flipped (frame sequential) 3D input signal and not a checkerboard signal such as the Samsung or Mitsubishi 3D DLP HDTVs.  This is the case with most all consumer grade 3D DLP Projectors.

 

What hardware do I need for my DLP Projector in order to watch DirecTV in 3D ?

We currently recommend a PC or 3D BluRay player for use with the 120 Hz 3D DLP projectors.  To watch a Direct TV in 3D you will need a cable box adaptor which our technical staff is working on developing currently.  We expect to annouce its release in Fall 2010.
