Belinea 102035W

Had mine for about a week now, on the whole pretty happy with it. No dead or stuck pixels. There is light bleeding from each of the 4 corners on black screens, but its not all that noticable while playing even dark games so i can live with it. I was going to buy a Dell 2005FPW, but went for this instead figuring it had a better panel.
 
I'm looking to buy but first could somebody who owns one please confirm that scaling works properly for lower resolutions. With DVI and a Nvidia card you get the option to do "fixed aspect ratio scaling" and I need to know if this works OK with the Belinea - it seems to not always be the case with TFTs.
Specifically if somebody can set the "fixed aspect ratio scaling" option (in Nvidia display properties), load up a game configured to 1280x1024 or 1024x768 and check that it keeps the correct aspect ratio with black bars either side.
Many thanks
 
Very nice gib786, very nice indeed.

Are you suffering from any rear light bleeding or ghosting with this monitor at all? Although looking at those pictures I must admit to not being able to see Light Bleeding.

I specifically want one of these monitors to solely use for my 360. Has anyone else tried this setup and if so how do you find this monitor?

Cheers
 
gib786, thanks, just what I needed to see. Had to be sure I could play older games without having them stretched out or shrunk too small. I think the credit card is about to take another hit.
 
How do you enable the scaling, please? I can't see an option in my nv configs.

In the Nvidia display settings there is a page "Digital Flat Panel settings" but you only get this with a DVI connection and not analog VGA.

See my posts earlier. It's a top screen for the 360. Can't see the backlight bleed at all on it.
 
What page is that on mate?

I know it's asking a lot but would somebody be able to show some pictures of their 360 running off this monitor? I would love to see what it would look like as I'm so close to getting one but just need some visual justification if you know what I mean.

Has anyone tested this monitor at all with ATI's image scaling options ? The options dont do anything on my current AOC-LM919 monitor but that may be due to the monitor being able to handle the scalling it self.

I have not noticed any bleeding with mine, only bit of ghosting I saw was a tiny bit whilst watching a scene in the 3rd matrix film. Overall its an excellent monitor, I just need belina to release a bigger version, 30" would be sweet!

I just got mine today and like you I do have some slight bleeding from 4 corners also but again it's nothing too bad and liveable. I've noticed one stuck pixel (on red) but it's not noticeable unless you look for it and even then it will take you a while.

All in all a good panel for the price. Fired up Call of Duty 2 and it looked fantastic - widescreen gaming is the way to go fellas!

Cheers, that's just what I wanted! Off to get a DVI cable now.
 
Does this screen have a single (physical) button to change inputs? My current monitor did (until i spilt my drink on it - now none of the buttons work :eek: ) but my brother's pannel you have to go through the menu to get to it.

Thanks

boosfuk - I took some pictures of the monitor with fixed aspect ratio scaling on, playing fear at 1024 x 768. Hope this helps

what does it look like @ 1024*768 stretched to fit, or is there a similar widescrren res to 1024? , sorry new to widescreens?
 
Just to confirm before I order, if I play a video file that is 4:3 scale. Will it have Black boarders either side?

And if I play a game like Championship Manager in 4:3, will it have black boarders either side?

I have an ATIX800XTPE if it make any difference.
