Screen surface quality can also affect the reflectivity of light in your projected image. Screen
reflective properties are measured as “gain” rates, with 1.0 gain as the reflectivity of a white
board. Highly reflective screen surfaces (above 1.0 gain) create a brighter image, but the
brightness may not be uniform enough for a dedicated home theater environment and the
colors may appear to shift from different viewing angles.
In a home theater room with darkened surroundings and controlled lighting, a screen surface
with less than 1.0 gain is best. For rooms where you cannot control the light or will always
have ambient light, you may want to select a screen surface with more than 1.0 gain to
compensate for the additional brightness.
Adjusting the Picture
After you set up your Epson MovieMate and start your movie, you may need to make certain
adjustments.
■
If the image is too low or too high, you can extend the feet (by rotating them) and tilt
MovieMate up.
If you tilt the image, it will lose its rectangular shape. Use the
Keystone
buttons on the
remote control or the control panel to adjust the image shape.
