Acer H5360 720p Problem w/ Battlefield BC2 & Metro 2033 720p available in game, but does not sho
1 / 2
Out of all the games and applications I've used, these two games are the only problem.
Both games have 1280 x 720 as a resolution option, but once selected and the projector goes black and then displays again to change the resolution, it either stretches it or picks another resolution.
Metro 2033 stretches the image, like it's a 4:3 image. I believe the projector says in the top right corner 1280 x 720 60hz, but the image is definately a stretched 4:3 resolution. I've tried other resolutions and left the game and came back in hoping it would reset somehow, but no such luck. Bad Company 2 also does not display the resolution properly, but I don't remember off the top of my head exactly how it was displayed.
Anyone else having issues with this projector and these two games? I'm running them in 2D mode so far. My drivers are the 266.58 WHQL.

FYI, I play both of these games with the same projector and drivers without issue. GTX570, Win7 64. I can't remember if there is a refresh issue where you have to set 120Hz. Maybe it is something in the driver settings?

Try going to 3D settings tab in Nvidia control panel and click on test 3D application. When the box shows up to choose AA click on the box that says apply refresh rate to all games. I also have an aced h5360 and I haven't ever had that problem, but I've always checked that box after my 3D setup

My computer info is in my sig except my Motherboard, which is the MSI GD65 (b3). My drivers are the 266.58 WHQL and whatever 3Dvision drivers were installed in that bundle. No SLI yet, just one GTX580 card.
I noticed that when enabling 3Dvision I had additional problems. The dream aquarium screensaver, with even just 3D enabled in the control panel, now becomes a 4:3 aspect ratio and the projector says at the top right 1440 x 900. So I have a 3D screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio (not stretched) and black bars on the left and right of it, and the projector picks a strange resolution to display it. The screensaver uses the same resolution information as the desktop.
When 3DVision is off in the control panel, the screensaver shows up just fine, a nice 16:9 aspect ratio at 720p. I had the same problem with the Medusa demo.
I probably will upgrade to the newer drivers and spend lots of time retweaking all the control panel options per each of my games (AA, AF, etc) and then go and redo each convergence and depth setting for my games in 3D. Uggg! I find it hard to believe that it's my current drivers, because this does not seem to be a common problem.
I feel it's the Acer itself. The stupid projector does not even come with any drivers. Windows sees it as a PnP monitor, although the control panel in Nvidia sees it as the correct ACER.

I have owned the Acer H5360 since it launched. I have ran across a few problems with it since then, primarily with the HDMI not being recognized through Nvidia Control panel. It would work fine through VGA, but not HDMI. I used the inf. file posted at "http://3dizzy.com/DRIVERS.html" You have to right click the pic of the projector and select "save target as". Then you have to open the file with notepad and scroll to the bottom of the page to PRODUCTID="Acer H5360 (EDID Override)" Remove (EDID Override) from the line and save text file as inf.
Rerun Nvidia 3d setup wizard. Now it should be showing up as an Acer H5360 instead of "Targa Acer H5360". Once complete, click on "Test Stereoscopic 3D" Select the correct resolution and refresh rate, then check box "Apply refresh rate to all games". Once finished, all games should force on the 120hz signal when opened. I haven't had any issues with this problem since figuring out all these steps. Another thing to keep in mind when opening a game with this projector, the depth seems to be kinda lacking in most games at 100%, so either download the depth batch file here "http://www.mediafire.com/?xmzjiiqlqzw" or ALT+Tab out of game and open up Regedit, find "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Nvidia Corporation\Global\Stereo3D" and click on MonitorSize. Then check the Decimal Box and change value to 80. That should really increase depth more tricking your drivers to think you have a smaller screen. Then fine tune convergence and depth from there. I have BBC 2, Just Cause 2, Metro 2033, Crysis 2, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Homefront, COD MW2 and Black OPS, the HL series, Mafia 2, Batman AA, and GTA IV all running flawlessly on my system. With the one exception of BBC 2, that game still stutters when I max it out, not sure if it's an SLI/3D issue yet or not, still playin with that one. I hope this helps out.

Hmm strangely my monitor size is 220 in the registry. I also changed "aspect ratio" in the projector setting from "auto" to "16:9" and it seems to have helped. The projector still has the wrong resolution at the top right in Metro2033 and BBC2, but the image itself looks like a correct 16:9 720p image. In BBC2, the projector says 75hz tho, for some strange reason.

By standard the number you see in the registry is typically double your screen size, so by ALT+Tabbing out of the game then switching that to a lower number tricks your driver into thinking its a smaller monitor, hence tripling your depth. 220=110" screen basicaly, so switch it to 80=40" screen and the depth will be much greater. That is really strange about bbc2, it should automaticaly force it into 120hz. Did follow my instructions on selecting the force 120hz refresh rate in "test 3d application"

Something else interesting I found out tonight. While I know the native resolution of this projector is 720p, switching to 1080p in games and tech demos yields a huge increase in visual quality, especially with SSAA and 32x FSAA enabled in the control panel. Out of the five tech demos I tried, and 24 Steam games installed, all of them do 1080p at 60hz except both Crysis and Crysis Warhead. For some reason, the projector says 1080p 50hz for both games. Even in 720p both games make the projector use a 50hz frequency for some reason.
While small text like on the desktop and the steam popup window when getting into a game appear just a tad off because of the downsampling, the games and apps look fantastic. It's like the downsampling method helps get rid of any jaggies that are left over from the AA forced in the control panel. And even games that don't have AA options like GTA IV and Dead Space only show a minimum amount of jaggies on my 80" screen. I'm using the Epson Duet portable projector screen.
Oh,and I thought you would want a larger screen, not a smaller one in the registry, to make the depth greater in games. I haven't tried messing with it yet though to prove it.
I can't wait for either the next gen GFX card to come out, or for the GTX 580 to drop in price so I can get another one for SLI.

Try it out and you'll see, you want to change it to a smaller number. I've been doing this for every game for the last eight months.

Yes please let us know if anyone else can run BFBC2 & Metro2033 ok at 1280 x 720p in game options.
And BTW, what I said about games & tech demos looking great in 1080p is in regard to 2D 1080p, not running them in 1080p 3D, because obviously this projector does not handle 3D in 1080p.

Just an update, I still have problems with Crysis. If I pick 1080p for Crysis resulution, the projector defaults to 24hz, so hence 24fps. In 720p resolution for Crysis, the projector defaults to 50hz, hence 50fps. This is the only game that does this. I can't force a different refresh rate in any way. Anyone else have this issue? Running latest drivers now, doesn't make a difference. Using the HDMI output.

Are all games working in 3D except for Crysis? Something I do not see in BigDawg's post is the instruction to go into control panel and update the drivers with the EDID override file. I had issues with my H5360 too as the EDID got corrupted, so, anytime I update the video card drivers, I have to go through forcing the EDID override routine.

Both games have 1280 x 720 as a resolution option, but once selected and the projector goes black and then displays again to change the resolution, it either stretches it or picks another resolution.
Metro 2033 stretches the image, like it's a 4:3 image. I believe the projector says in the top right corner 1280 x 720 60hz, but the image is definately a stretched 4:3 resolution. I've tried other resolutions and left the game and came back in hoping it would reset somehow, but no such luck. Bad Company 2 also does not display the resolution properly, but I don't remember off the top of my head exactly how it was displayed.
Anyone else having issues with this projector and these two games? I'm running them in 2D mode so far. My drivers are the 266.58 WHQL.

I noticed that when enabling 3Dvision I had additional problems. The dream aquarium screensaver, with even just 3D enabled in the control panel, now becomes a 4:3 aspect ratio and the projector says at the top right 1440 x 900. So I have a 3D screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio (not stretched) and black bars on the left and right of it, and the projector picks a strange resolution to display it. The screensaver uses the same resolution information as the desktop.
When 3DVision is off in the control panel, the screensaver shows up just fine, a nice 16:9 aspect ratio at 720p. I had the same problem with the Medusa demo.
I probably will upgrade to the newer drivers and spend lots of time retweaking all the control panel options per each of my games (AA, AF, etc) and then go and redo each convergence and depth setting for my games in 3D. Uggg! I find it hard to believe that it's my current drivers, because this does not seem to be a common problem.
I feel it's the Acer itself. The stupid projector does not even come with any drivers. Windows sees it as a PnP monitor, although the control panel in Nvidia sees it as the correct ACER.

I have owned the Acer H5360 since it launched. I have ran across a few problems with it since then, primarily with the HDMI not being recognized through Nvidia Control panel. It would work fine through VGA, but not HDMI. I used the inf. file posted at "http://3dizzy.com/DRIVERS.html" You have to right click the pic of the projector and select "save target as". Then you have to open the file with notepad and scroll to the bottom of the page to PRODUCTID="Acer H5360 (EDID Override)" Remove (EDID Override) from the line and save text file as inf.
Rerun Nvidia 3d setup wizard. Now it should be showing up as an Acer H5360 instead of "Targa Acer H5360". Once complete, click on "Test Stereoscopic 3D" Select the correct resolution and refresh rate, then check box "Apply refresh rate to all games". Once finished, all games should force on the 120hz signal when opened. I haven't had any issues with this problem since figuring out all these steps. Another thing to keep in mind when opening a game with this projector, the depth seems to be kinda lacking in most games at 100%, so either download the depth batch file here "http://www.mediafire.com/?xmzjiiqlqzw" or ALT+Tab out of game and open up Regedit, find "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Nvidia Corporation\Global\Stereo3D" and click on MonitorSize. Then check the Decimal Box and change value to 80. That should really increase depth more tricking your drivers to think you have a smaller screen. Then fine tune convergence and depth from there. I have BBC 2, Just Cause 2, Metro 2033, Crysis 2, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Homefront, COD MW2 and Black OPS, the HL series, Mafia 2, Batman AA, and GTA IV all running flawlessly on my system. With the one exception of BBC 2, that game still stutters when I max it out, not sure if it's an SLI/3D issue yet or not, still playin with that one. I hope this helps out.

Hmm strangely my monitor size is 220 in the registry. I also changed "aspect ratio" in the projector setting from "auto" to "16:9" and it seems to have helped. The projector still has the wrong resolution at the top right in Metro2033 and BBC2, but the image itself looks like a correct 16:9 720p image. In BBC2, the projector says 75hz tho, for some strange reason.

By standard the number you see in the registry is typically double your screen size, so by ALT+Tabbing out of the game then switching that to a lower number tricks your driver into thinking its a smaller monitor, hence tripling your depth. 220=110" screen basicaly, so switch it to 80=40" screen and the depth will be much greater. That is really strange about bbc2, it should automaticaly force it into 120hz. Did follow my instructions on selecting the force 120hz refresh rate in "test 3d application"

While small text like on the desktop and the steam popup window when getting into a game appear just a tad off because of the downsampling, the games and apps look fantastic. It's like the downsampling method helps get rid of any jaggies that are left over from the AA forced in the control panel. And even games that don't have AA options like GTA IV and Dead Space only show a minimum amount of jaggies on my 80" screen. I'm using the Epson Duet portable projector screen.
Oh,and I thought you would want a larger screen, not a smaller one in the registry, to make the depth greater in games. I haven't tried messing with it yet though to prove it.
I can't wait for either the next gen GFX card to come out, or for the GTX 580 to drop in price so I can get another one for SLI.

Try it out and you'll see, you want to change it to a smaller number. I've been doing this for every game for the last eight months.

And BTW, what I said about games & tech demos looking great in 1080p is in regard to 2D 1080p, not running them in 1080p 3D, because obviously this projector does not handle 3D in 1080p.

Just an update, I still have problems with Crysis. If I pick 1080p for Crysis resulution, the projector defaults to 24hz, so hence 24fps. In 720p resolution for Crysis, the projector defaults to 50hz, hence 50fps. This is the only game that does this. I can't force a different refresh rate in any way. Anyone else have this issue? Running latest drivers now, doesn't make a difference. Using the HDMI output.

Are all games working in 3D except for Crysis? Something I do not see in BigDawg's post is the instruction to go into control panel and update the drivers with the EDID override file. I had issues with my H5360 too as the EDID got corrupted, so, anytime I update the video card drivers, I have to go through forcing the EDID override routine.
