Configuring Key ForceWare Graphics Driver Features
•
Use
onboard
DIN
connector
—
If
your
graphics
card
has
a
built
‐
in
3
‐
pin
DIN
connector,
select
this
option
to
enable
the
feature.
In
this
case,
you
do
not
need
extra
adapters
such
as
those
shipped
with
the
ELSA
3D
Revelator
or
StereoGraphics
glasses.
You
can
connect
any
stereo
hardware
using
the
3
‐
pin
‐
DIN
connector
directly
to
the
graphics
card.
•
Use
blue
‐
line
‐
code
for
StereoGraphics
products
—
Select
this
option
if
you
use
an
adapter
shipped
with
StereoGraphics
StereoEyes
or
compatible
products.
These
adapters
translate
the
monitor
signal
to
the
standardized
3
‐
pin
DIN
connector
used
by
most
of
available
stereo
hardware.
You don't need to use the adapter if your graphics card has a built-in 3-pin DIN
connector.
Swap eyes (L becomes R, R becomes L)
Applies
to
graphics
cards
based
on
newer
NVIDIA
GPUs,
such
as
the
Quadro
FX
series.
In
case
you
cannot
view
a
stereo
effect,
select
this
option
to
exchange
the
left
and
right
images.
In
general,
you
may
need
to
enable
this
option
only
on
vertical
interlace
monitors
and
in
passive
mode.
Enable Overlay
Applies
to
graphics
cards
based
on
newer
NVIDIA
GPUs,
such
as
the
Quadro
FX
series.
On
enables
the
NVIDIA
driver
to
export
overlay
pixel
formats
so
that
OpenGL
applications
can
use
overlays.
Some
applications
(for
example,
Softimage3D)
require
overlay
planes,
which
are
used
as
a
paletted
surface
in
addition
to
the
normal
color
(RGB)
buffer.
Overlays
are
especially
useful
for
overlapping
drawing
areas
that
are
independent
of
the
3D
image
itself,
such
as
menus
and
cursors.
Tip:
If
the
stereo
or
overlay
features
do
not
work
properly,
you
may
want
to
try
setting
different
screen
resolutions
and
refresh
rates
until
you
arrive
at
a
setting
or
combination
of
settings
for
better
results.
