will the sony HMD work with HDMI 1.3 as well ?

i was craving for a headset with HDMI 1.3/1.4a input and finally it's really happening...cybereality wrote:The Sony HMD is almost surely HDMI 1.4a compliant, it would be a joke if it wasn't. But, of course, you can watch 2D content over HDMI 1.3 if needed.
But to get back on topic: Its September 1st and Vuzix hasn't updated their site. WTF?!?!?!?!
Great....etaxdoa wrote:The box has arrived,... am a little disappointed the courier let a co-worker recieve it.
This was a virtual impulse buy, so when i post some kind of review, please excuse my newbness
cybereality wrote:@etaxdoa: Ok thanks. What you say about having to rotate the displays sounds like the same issue I am calling the negative effect. I assumed the IPD adjustments would fix this, but it sounds like its still somewhat of an issue. Also, what is your prescription for glasses? I wear -2.5 and I'm wondering if I'm going to have the same problem. Its strange you have the focus is such a problem because on the Wrap 310 I can see it clearly without glasses and I never adjusted anything. Maybe it is a new design or maybe the 1200 displays are just too big for the optics they use on other models.

Am writing this in 800x600 with the VGA adapter attached to my PC. The text is just a tad too small to read and work comfortably with at the 1024x768 and 1280x720 resolution.
Yea I saw that also. It says to use the Star1200 VR manger.ShawmK wrote:On the Vuzix official forum, they said something recently about the current VR Manager not recognising the Wrap 1200; apparently they haven't released the update yet!!
Do you think that might be the problem?
Here's the thread in question:

thanks for the infoetaxdoa wrote: It is accepted as "generic plug'n'play" primary/secondary monitor by your desktop/laptop the moment you plug in the headset using the VGA adapter and usb cable ?
Setting the 1200 to be either main or secondary does not make a difference either
The native resolution appears to be 1280x720... catalyst identifies the display as Wrap1200, with maximum resolution 1920x1080
Tere is no flickering .... SBS?
At that resolution the ok and cancel buttons on many dialogs will be cut off3dvison wrote:etaxdoa,
I just had a thought.
Can windows and games be set to run at the Wrap1200 native resolution of 852 x 480 ?
That resolution should be clear and sharp. Can you give that a try and see if it works ?
well thanks for the info once againetaxdoa wrote:

At 1280x720, the colours are rich enough for movies for my liking, though could be alittle brighter, the dark/black could be blacker, the contrast a little more contrasting. There are three presets for combinations of brightness contrast, colour hue etc that seem to suit what I have watched so far. I'll be mainly using these on flights and they'll keep me entertained.
I would not describe the images as 'very sharp'. Having not seen an OLED, I imagine they'd give a much sharper picture with better contrast and brighter colors, so if you really are hanging out for the SD/HD experience i'd probably wait for the Cinemizer
i have samsung syncmaster CRT PC monitor and the image is great!etaxdoa wrote:Ancjob
Hopefully someone else receives one shortly and gives you their opinion. I have a HTC Desire, I would not put the picture quality in the same league as that, if that is any further guide. Image more like a CRT monitor.
well wrap1200vr seems to be the least of the options for me ,cinemizer better and sony the best!etaxdoa wrote:ancjob,... given that i have only ever had low end monitors... i wouldn't get your hopes up. I do have an 80cm widescreen CRT TV that was a top end of the line model... the pcture on the 1200 is not that vibrant or clear. Would put it on par with that of lcd monitors shortly after they first started coming out.
