Guys
if anyone who has z800 3dvisor please answer my query below : 1)My DVD player supports VGA output - 800x600@50Hz for PAL and 640x480@60Hz for NTSC input - will this VGA output work with Z800 3dvisor ? 2)i have Egreat EG-M33A [http://cgi.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190465736500&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT] Following VGA output is supported - 480P, 576P, 720I, 720P, 1080P , 1080I@50Hz and 1080I,1080P@60Hz [P=pregressive , I=interlaced] a) I know that z800 will not support 1080I,1080P@60Hz as it does not downscale the high resolution signal b) What about 480P, 576P@50Hz -will this work with z800 3dvisor ? the reason i am asking is that i have secured z800 and collecting the required hardware for it to test it ! anybody who has Z800 3dvisor and who can test to answer above - please ... |

z800 only accepts 800x600 @ 60 hz because it lacks an internal scaler. I remember messing with the setting and changing it to 59hz and it still worked. I am not sure if 50 hz will still work. Sorry I couldnt be more helpful.
On a side note I bought the vga cable for the xbox 360, hoping to play with the visor, but it doesn't support 800x600 so long story short I bought a little box that scales composite to 800x600 @ 60hz and outputs over vga. _________________ "Who has ever torn himself from the claw that encloses you when you drop a seed in a TV parlor?

I understand your nervousness about quality but the scaler I got pleasantly surprised me with how well it turned 480i into 800x600. I also did some non scientific tests (played Halo 3 online) and there wasn't enough lag for me to not own noobs.

http://www.ambery.com/
Ultra Video to DVI VGA HDv3 Converter Scaler~1280x1024 Pixels Digital Out Subtotal 95.00 Don't know if they still carry that exact model but that's where I got it. I didn't want to pay a premium for gefen or the likes so I took a chance with a website I had never heard of and am glad I did. I think I remember seeing similar products on dealextreme so you might want to check there too. _________________ "Who has ever torn himself from the claw that encloses you when you drop a seed in a TV parlor?

Yes it does if its the model I have. You can toggle between 800x600 and 1280x1024 through an OSD and buttons on the unit. The only problem is is can only accept a max of 480i even over component video.
EDIT: Took a quick look and couldn't find the one I ordered. The one listed as ultra now does not support svga as you said. _________________ "Who has ever torn himself from the claw that encloses you when you drop a seed in a TV parlor?
