    Official BenQ FP241W Thread !!! Info, Pictures, Reviews

    hey guys, does anyone know how much the FP241W weighs without the stand. I was thinking of setting up this monitor with the ergotron 45-179-195 desk mount but it can only support up to 20lbs. i don't have a scale around here or else i would've weighed it myself.

    10e, I'm not sure what you mean by this statement. But maybe i wasn't clear, if you're playing games or general stuff on a PS3 with overscan "off" you shouldn't see a green scan line in the HDMI input. But if you're watching a blu-ray or standard DVD with your PS3 through the HDMI input with...

    I have and yes, it still shows the green scan line. Reason being, those lines are never seen on a TV because TVs automatically have the image overscanned. This monitor, on the other hand, allows the user to turn off the overscan function and see the entire image. Thus, you are allowed to see all...

    speaking of overscan: i have the sept. '07 build so overscan "off" option works fine. i noticed that the overscan option is shaded out (can't be selected) while using the DVI input and have my laptop connected to it. I was just wondering, if i hook up my PS3 (watching blu-ray) or HD cable...

    hey myrkul, just because you're watching a dvd does not mean it is 16:9. it depends on what aspect ratio the production company produces the movies in. for example, let's take 3 blu-ray movies. meet the robinsons = aspect ratio is 1.78:1 which is technically 16:9. no black bars will be shown...

    HTPC??? sorry, i'm not well informed with this. please elaborate. edit: looked it up. so when playing bluray movies through HTPC, i'm assuming you're running it at 1920x1200 and something like powerdvd to play 1080p video? branana, do you get any green scan lines while watching a blu ray movie...

    1. don't know. i heard new egg still has some older mfg dates in stock. and from a business perspective, they may be using the "first in, first out" method for their inventory meaning that the older models get shipped out first. but i have heard that many people have received a sept 07 mfg date...

    actually, that is not the source of the problem. after researching through these threads, someone stated that the green line was only present on 1080i with this monitor. realizing i was hooking up an xbox 360 with HD DVD through component, the max res component seems to output was 1080i only...
