Configuring Displays
Flicker
Use the
Flicker
slider to adjust the amount of flicker filter you want applied to the TV
signal.
Note:
It is recommended that you turn off the
Flicker
filter completely (move slider
all the way to the left) for DVD movie playback from a hardware decoder.
Overdrive
To use the Overdrive slider, select the check box and click
Apply
.
The overdrive range is between 0% and 100%.
When you set the slider to adjust “overdrive,” you are simultaneously adjusting the
Brightness
and
Contrast
slider to remove or reduce edge breaks — i.e., the balloon
effect of the visible edges based on content. As you increase the overdrive value, the
Brightness
is increased and the
Contrast
is decreased by a similar amount.
Overscan Shift
Note:
This feature is available on the following TV encoders — Conexant 871, 872,
873, 874, 875, and integrated encoders.
Depending on the TV encoder on the NVIDIA GPU or NVIDIA GPU-based graphics
card, for some HDTV output modes, there is no available downscaler to implement
overscan compensation. The
Overscan shift
slider option is available for this
condition.
Using the
Overscan shift
slider, you can shift the desktop by 0% to 20% (based on the
position of this slider) in response to the movement of your mouse.
For example, if you start moving the mouse cursor near the Windows taskbar
Start
button, the desktop will shift up and right so that the
Start
button becomes visible.
Also, if you see a black border on your TV screen, you can use the slider to enlarge
the TV screen to remove the border.
