DLP TV for client monitors
Hi All,
I know LCD and Plasma screens have been talked about a lot on this forum. What about DLP? What is there delay? Also, if they have a huge delay, what is the solution for video monitors? Thanks for all the help. Brandon

Re: DLP TV for client monitors
ALL of them have latency. There is no single value for all displays, or any display type, or any manufacturer. It is a wild and wooly world. Accept that reality and move on. Like LCDs, DLPs seem to be in the 2 frame range.
For a fix, some apps can advance video playback, like Pro Tool's movie sync offset feature, some can't like Pro Tools V10/MOJO option. Your only other fix is to delay the audio monitor's signals. You've been around the DUC long enough to be completely familiar with the link below, so I won't mention it.

Re: DLP TV for client monitors
Thanks All,
I just didn't know if DLP was in the 4 frame plasma range. The problem I'm running into is, The clients are getting 17" LCD TV's for cloce monitoring. I would a big tv monitor that has around the same delay (within a frame) so I don't have time zones in the room (The client monitor is in but the big one on the wall is out buy three frames). I think a big DLP and client LCDs are a good combo and will probably be within a frame of eachother. Is that a good gamble? Thanks again. Brandon P.S. I've read all the Sync Check info on your web page Richard. Thanks for all the info.

i say that, just becasue it is like an SPL meter. you need it to know! so you aren't thinking...yeah...that's "about" a frame... here is the other reason: i have a CRT for me and a 42" display for clients. but they have different delays. (the displays, not my clients, though some are slower than others ) so, i use the box to know how much for each display. then, i can work by myself and know i am in sync, and when clients are here for review, i can switch the offset so their monitor is in sync. clearly, this is not ideal, but it is necesarry in my room. so, if you can avoid it, do. if you can't then know the delay for each device. my offset for the plasma is 150ms, so, yeah, more than 4 frames! but, i can get it dead on now and it is tight.
