benq w1070 projector help
hi, i have a benq w1070 projector & have been using dlp glasses with it. my brother has a w700 projector which is nvidia ready & a nvidia 3d vision kit which i must say looks every bit as good. i have read that you can fool the pc into thinking it is playing thru a acer 5360 or similar projector to use 3d vision glasses. can anyone give me any info on how to do this. as the w1070 will only play 3d games in 720p it won't matter much if i had to use it in 720p & not 1080p as the dlp glasses i have are making my & my mrs eyes ache so much but when we visit my brother the 3d vision glasses dont affect my eyes as much. thanks

What DLP-Link glasses are you using? I use cheap one of of ebay all the time and haven't had any issue with them bothering my eyes, in fact I've used a bunch of cheap and good ones over the years and never had an issue with any of them. Are you running at 1080p24? I think that'll ruin the experience more than anything. Or perhaps the stereo in your setup is reversed, not all DLP-Link glasses sync to the proper polarity every time but usually they have a reverse sync button/switch or there's an option on the projector itself. Usually when the image literally hurts your eyes or feels extremely uncomfortable it's because it's either reversed or one of the settings is way too high, depth/convergence.

thanks for the reply. yes we got the cheap dlp glasses from ebay & yes it isn't too bad. but i have noticed less eye ache with my brothers nvidia setup & the contrast does seem to be better. so whether its the dlp system or the cheap glasses i thought i'd try the nvidia 3d vision way & if not just go back to the dlp glasses.

I own like 5 pairs of dlp link glasses and most of them are very bad. If its ebay I am guessing its probably the true depth. Especially considering the eye ache. Do both eyes match? Like does tilting head a tiny bit give different images[polarity I think]? Or do you see double images? DLP glasses are like sunglasses. There are good ones and there are bad ones. These are mainly meant for people who want 3d every once in a while for a movie, not really long usage gaming. I recommend the optoma dlp link glasses. They are a bit massive in size but who cares imo. They are built tough and give a good crisp image. 3D vision 2's are the best 3d glasses I've tried on projector. Optoma DLP link is second best 3D vision 1's are probably third. Its discussed on 3dvision-blog on how to do "trick projector" but I have not personally tried it. Either way you will need an emitter + glasses to test it. 3D vision 2 glasses are the best 3d glasses I have ever tried. 3d vision 1's are kind of mediocre on projectors as far as the two I've tried.

Ive tried both and personally i didnt notice any difference other than v2's bigger lenses. I compared one mirrors edge scene where i can see a little bit of ghosting even on dlp projector, and they performed identically. The brightness seems to be same too. Comfort and eyestrain are equal too.

3D vision 1's wireless give off a decent amount of ghosting on optoma hd60/acer h5360 when I tested. More then the optoma dlp link. I've tried 3 pairs. 3d vision 1's wired are awful because they have red tint issues. I believe discontinued. 3d vision 2's are flawless for me. I dont have any ghosting on mirror's edge. Im not saying I never ghosting but its pretty rare. Like in certain games in very situational circumstances. Ive owned 3 pairs. The only issue is the reflective surface but once you wear it for a few days you dont notice it. Dunno, if version 1's work fine for you I wouldnt worry about it but I really hate ghosting and went through alot of pairs looking for the best one. Viewing angles/whatever there are a lot of extenuating circumstances.

thanks i have both sets of nvidia 1 & 2 to try from my brother. so its the trick projector bit i need to learn about. also playing games, as the w1070 will only play games in 720 3d anyway i am not too bothered about using this if it will improve things.
