Mitsubishi 3D DLP 1080p @ 120hz? Confused
I'm a little confused on these DLP tv's. Do they support 1080p at 120hz? seems like all of their specs are pretty watered down. I remember CRT's use to give XXXX resolution @ XXHz. So basic question is can any of these DLP's display 1080p at 120hz for true 1080p 3d viewing? aka 60Hz per eye.

Thanks, Chris

No, they can't. They use the so called DLP checkerboard pattern to build up the 3D image, so when in 3D mode the actual resolution for the 3D is not 1080p, but lower. And because of the way they create the 3D image they do not need 120Hz signal to be sent to them (they do not use frame sequential mode as the 3D LCD monitors at 120Hz do).

Ok I read a little more about checker boarding and I see that it is not true 1920X1080 resolution. However, a better question may have been what do these DLP tv's support in terms of maximum 2d resolution and refresh rate? I know they support a native resolution of 1920X1080 but at what refresh rate is this? Also what is the nvidia 3d vision shutter glass system is it only made to use checker board?

120 hz in DLP devices stands for the speed of the color wheel. 120 hz DLP displays most likely won't give you any rainbow effects.
Otherwise the video still runs at 60hz, which is fine as DLP doesn't need the 120hz pannel mumbo jumbo. Its fast and smooth enough at 60hz.
Unless you are talking about 3D DLP projectors which support 120 hz input...
