OpenGL and Direct3D
The OpenGL and Direct3D pages of the Advanced Properties page are
divided into two sections: Main Settings and Custom Settings.
Main Settings
In the Main Settings section there is a slider bar which allows the user
to adjust the OpenGL or Direct3D settings for optimum performance,
optimum quality or for a point in between. There is also a checkbox
provided for enabling Custom Settings.
Custom Settings
Note:
Barco recommends that you use the default settings,
unless your viewing application vendor provides detailed
information on custom settings.
In the Custom Settings section the user can fine tune the following
options:
• Anisotropic filtering
• SMOOTHVISION
• Wait for Vertical Sync
Anisotropic Filtering
Anisotropic filtering is a technique that preserves detail on surfaces
that have three-dimensional perspective and fade away into the
background. It works best when used in conjunction with
Mipmapping.
Anisotropic filtering can be set to favor either an increase in system
processing performance or improved image quality.
Note:
If you are unsure how to configure anisotropic filtering,
use the
Application Preference
option. Your display will
automatically adjust to the application’s requirements.
