Post subject:  ScreenGoo has reflective

ScreenGoo has reflective particles in the mix so it probably isn't what you're looking for. I tried it for my screen and it was way too bright. You probably want a neutral grey paint. Go to Home Theatre Shack and ask the DIY screen guys what you should use (it'll also be cheaper).

The drop in image quality that you're experiencing is due to the warping function. You're effectively taking a 1280x800 image and compressing all the information in that picture into a lower resolution (yes, that's really what you're doing). Will work fine for games/video but fine features such as small font text will suffer.

I'm wondering how this Optoma GT720 projector does with the DLP rainbow effect; I was steering clear looking at LCD. I did watch the YouTube video you posted however it's not the same as being there; does this projector produce that rainbow effect at all?

If not I will be sold on two for my 120 deg fov. .. Just haven't decided on front or rear projection.

Thank you for your input.

From what I've read, it's people that can see the rainbow effect, rather than the projector producing it or not. I've never seen it, but someone else with their eyes could look at the same projector and see it if you see what I mean?

I can see the "rainbow effect" if I take a white window and quickly move it around over a black background while blink my eyes quickly. I've never noticed it any other way so it hasn't been a problem for me.
