Philips Lightframe 2

[AKS\/\/ulfe]

I have a Philips 107S2 monitor that is capable of lightframe 2 image enhancing, and until recently did not know or try it out.

Now I have tried it out, using it full screen mode (setting it through the monitors controls) in Il2 and various other games.

Its amazing really, it turns dull games into bright, contrasting worlds.

I would post a picture, but I don't have a digital camera to do it with. All those photoshopped screenshots of Il2 or FB you see where someone added in the brightness filter or whatever, this monitor does it on its own.

The only downside is that on certain things - lets say the vertical stabilizer of a plane contrasted against a blue sky - there is a vertical white bleed that hangs to the right. It happens on multiple objects, mostly on things that vastly contrast with the surrounding. In normal windows, it tends to do it only where text/numbering is.

Anyone have any experience with this technology, and know if there is a way to fix this bleeding?

I'll use it regardless, since it really makes the game world an actual world, just want to know if I can reduce or get rid of this bleeding.

Thanks.

If you're having a Nvidia card you could try to play with "Digital Vibration", Device Settings -> Colour Correction -> Digital Vibration (translated from Finnish, dunno if terms are correct for english version).

In addition to the Lightframe or in place of it?

I've been running at "Medium" Digital Vibrance, but it still doesn't quite do what the monitor is doing. The two together make the game really well lit, without lightframe it becomes pretty dark and contrasting between a tree standing up with a shadow below it and the terrain beneath it is difficult. With it on, objects that are not flat like the terrain stand out from far distances and appear more vivid.

But I'll try setting Digital Vibrance to high, see if that makes it better.

It's Digital Vibrance.

If you use an ATI card it is not required as ATI cards have higher drive and contrast qualities than NVidia cards do.
