I thought static contrast ratio of 5000:1 is good?
(Yes, but I'm assuming we're talking full black/full white or dynamic range.)

redid some adjustments, and bumped contrast up to 100. Managed to get a black level of 0.01 and a white level of just over 100 (over 10000:1 contrast ratio). Gonna do some more experimentation tomorrow.
I believe factory defaults are that the brightness is set to 50, and contrast is set to 85 if you want to shoot for some targets.
I know you have a signal generator, but something like white balance could probably be done without one, am I right? After all if you are displaying a grayscale image testing for the adherence to D65 then it should not matter what the exact timings are, though I do not know what exact patterns WinDAS asks for during the process.
In other words you could use something like PowerStrip for the timings and HCFR to display patterns.

I'm the dude with the generator. Be warned though... If you're not using a generator and just your video card, the output levels may not be trustworthy. Remember that generators are designed for the expressed purpose of being on point with their accuracy. If all you're doing a WPB for is for your own usage, then fine - it probably doesn't matter as much. But if your intentions are on getting absolute color accuracy for photo editing and film projects (or if you just care that much), then you'll probably want a generator.
to be honest, i got no clue what you guys are talking about since the whole 'hey you must do windas calibration on fw900 or it sucks" -idea came to this thread the last months..
Getting kinda bored with it, it would be great if we could comment on an actual guide or so.. Maybe create a new thread?
No offense of course
if you have something else FW900 related that you'd like to contribute, feel free to share. You won't be ignored
There's no harm in technical discussion, and it can only help clarify issues and act as a record for future readers.
I think the HDFury 4 only supports up to 72hz @ 1080p, which means even lower refresh at 1920x1200. The admin who responded in that thread ignored the part about refresh rates.
still pretty limiting. Many people prefer a refresh of at least 85hz for visual comfort. Some people like to work at 2304x1440 - i can only imagine what refresh rate HDFury 4 would support at that resolution.
There ain't really a solution yet.

Yeah, you're right. The official HDFury guy (maybe one of the engineers?) showed up and clarified that no, none of the currently available models can go much higher than 1080p72, or a total of 235Mhz.
However, he did say that they are working on a 4k model that should arrive next year. So we may be in luck. That would arrive around the time we start to see more cards without DAC's.

And I should also say that these are the guys who we can really trust to bring the best solution for us. Each iteration of the HDFury has added more and more features that have kept CRT owners on pace with evolving video standards. I currently use the original model for my PS3 and it looks fantastic and has absolutely no lag.
Is the only reason that ramdac will vanish on desktop graphic cards sooner or later? aka, to use it as external ramdac?
Or are there more benefits? Like getting better image on connecting a playstation 4 to it or so?

Does anyone know the secret to judder-free movie playback? I'm trying to watch some movies that are 24 fps (23.976 to be precise). First I tried watching at an even 72hz, and noticed judder, so I tried to set a the more precise timing of 71.928 hz with the Custom Resolution Utility, and still noticed judder.
How have you guys solved this?
