JVC DLA-RS1000/N5 & RS2000/NX7 Owners Thread

[AVSCraig]

There is a demo of the RS1000 at Wave Electronics in Scottsdale Arizona today until 4pm, if any of you are in that neck of the woods. Google them for an address / phone number / information.

Just a heads up - the JVC free lamp deal ends on April 30th. Order one ( an RS1000 / 2000 / 3000 ) by 4 / 30 - get a free spare lamp.

I have an RS1000, and I've been bothered with something for a couple weeks. There's something that has seemed like dirty screen effect: on some panning shots, I can see lines/waves/something like dirty screen effect. It's been somewhat confusing to me, since I didn't think LCOS suffered from this. I've tried looking at different sorts of shots to determine if my eyes are playing tricks on me, and there definitely seems to be something amiss. There seem to be at least three vertical bars around the center of the image that are weakly visible in some static shots but more noticeable in panning shots. Has anybody else seen this or heard of anything like this on one of these new JVCs?

What type of screen material ? I started to see that at one point on a Da Lite HCCV screen, and realized it was the screen material / texture.

Also, what projector were you using before? I think it might be the added brightness that the RS1000 has showing you artifacts with your screen.

Make sure you disable CMD and motion enhance, set low latency to on and reset all the MPC settings to zero, just to rule out any processing artifact.

I certainly don’t see this on my rs2000 with my Carada BW material.

We are down to the last two days for the free lamp. Must order by the 30th of this month to qualify for free lamp.

Speaking of MPC settings, what's the general recommendation for the NX5/ NX7?  I believe on the eshift models most preferred either all off or just a click or 2 (on enhance only).

I'd recommend setting all to zero to begin with.

Thanks Craig

Thanks Craig

Send me an email at craig@avscience.com and I can send some set up tips.

Last day for the JVC free lamp, for those on the fence.

[jbn008]

Will do.  thank you!

I've played around with the lens shift to see if I noticed the same problems in the same places or if they moved with the lens shift. I figured if I saw the same problems in the same spots, that meant a problem with the screen, and if the problem areas moved with the lens shift, it meant a problem with part of the projected image itself. The problem areas did move with the lens shift, which tells me it's something with the projector, not the screen.

I haven't tried these yet, but I will today, since as I wrote to Craig above, the problem does seem to be projector-related, not screen-related.
