- Do you mean flickers like an interlaced display or
- flickers as in jiggling side to side?
-
- In the former case, the other posters have had some good
- ideas. Let me mention that for well-shaded images, you
- shouldn't really notice the interlacing (well, anymore
- than you do on TV), but for some images it's going to look
- really bad.
-
- If it's the latter, play (carefully) with the Pixel
- Adjust on the unit. Generally, you want it right in the
- middle of the working range and you should test it with a
- picture with thin, white, vertical lines surrounding
- regions of color.
-
- I use the picture made of 16 small images that came with
- DCTV. I don't know if they give you that one anymore, but it
- made my display freak out if I didn't have the Pixel Adjust
- set right.
