Hi there

So does that mean this panel does support HDCP then?

toothe · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:35

im finding it really hard to take a decent photo lol.

anyway, Apocalypto bluray (1080p) at native res on the panel (ie, stretched to 1920x1200)

he said he was

got my mouse and other stuff, monitor wasn't sent though, although e-mail stated it was all sent yesterday so i've got to wait till tomorrow now to get mine. just frustrating as i only got the mouse and a couple random small bits because i was getting the screen, wouldn't have got them in the first place.

In roughly the same boat as you, I ordered this monitor and other stuff at about 11am and another order for an 8800GT at 1215pm. Got both shipping confirmations last night and the 8800GT arrived this morning but i can't even track the order with the monitor in as it's not even on citylinks system

Are you able to track yours?

jmhduck · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:35

ignore this... gibbo beat me to the question.

toothe · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:36

i'd be shocked for this panel not to have hdcp tbh. most panels do now. even my cheapo 19inch has, although it isnt documented

james.miller · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:36

just for you guys, i shall move my monitor and test out the hdcp lol. give me 10 minutes or so

remember what i said guys, you dont even need hdcp over vga. it only applies to dvi right now.

toothe · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:37

yeah james.miller. but DVI gives the better image quality imo

james.miller · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:38

yes but like i said, 10m dvi cables arent cheap

toothe · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:40

o yeah there is that issue.

drunkenmaster · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:41

i phoned up before, they said it wasn't sent, should be sent today. its just a pain as i only ordered for the screen, got mouse and other stuff to save making another order in a couple months. didn't really need that stuff, needed the screen. sod's law. whoever the sod is, he really seems to have it in for me lately

Hi there

What is that toolbar programme your using as its like the Mac OS but on a PC, what is it, is it a free download?

That looks like ObjectDock which is free.

toothe · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:44

lol drunkenmaster at least you got it cheap and not at the 260 quid its at now

RobH · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:56

Anyone registered their warranty yet? I can't seem to find the model 'L-2242W' under the 'LCD Monitor' category.

james.miller · 27 Nov 2007 at 14:56

ok my powerdvd is trying to download a 100mb update @16kbps before it can play my blurays without anydvd running lol. this may take a while.....

still works fine using anydvd, i should add (using dvi)

Wish I had the chance to get this at the weekend, if only the RMA came through faster

Oh well there's always wednesday. Nice reviews people.

toothe · 27 Nov 2007 at 15:02

gibbo also programs like http://www.desktopsidebar.com/ are customisable.

jon33 will be about £20 dearer than weekend i think shame would be an amazing deal. still unsure on dead pixels tho

Dark_Angel · 27 Nov 2007 at 15:03

Well I don't have any dead pixels... I don't think anyone does?
