BenQ w1070 with 2:35.1 aspect ratio !!!!!!

[A330-200]

Hi holics




I have a BenQ w1070 DLP FULL HD3D projector and i need to modified it in 2:35.1 aspect ratio.

I have enter to the main menu but the only aspect ratio i see & i know it & found it is 4:3, the rest are : anamorphic, real, wide & auto (even the 16:9 not listed).

I need to choose the aspect of 2:35.1 to use it in the gaming.

Please guys any help, idea ?????


Thx

Based on the owners manual, the 1070W does not do 2.35:1 natively. Nor does it have any processing to make an input source fit a 2.35:1 screen ratio.

I'd say your best bet is to use 'Real' setting which provides 1:1 pixel mapping and no processing for aspect ratio. So, 16:9 is displayed normally, filling a 16:9 screen and 2.35:1 content is displayed with the horizontal bars at the top and bottom. Exactly like all widescreen TVs today.

Out of curiosity, which games do video in 2.35:1? All of mine are 16:9.

If your platform in the PC (like mine), then u can make your own resolution (mine is 1920X860).

OK. That makes sense. Luckily my laptop's default video out at 1920x1080 on HDMI matches my TV's native resolution.

The BenQ W1070 is a 16:9 projector, not a 2.35 projector. It's native aspect ratio is 1920x1080 and that's the resolution that you should be doing everything at. If you feed it one of the supported resolutions it supports, then you can work with it however you would like at that point, but you should be realistically be feeding it 1920x1080.

If you want 2.35, then the proper way to do that with this projector, is to take your 2.35 source, stretch it vertically to fill your screen, then use an anamorphic lens.
