Great monitor test software for 16x9

[Dave A]

I found this Nokia software which gives you a self-extracting bunch of test screens in the 16x9 mode. It is perfect on my Sony laptop and should be easily sent via RGB to a set.

All of us Sony CRT/XBR HD set owners can use this to see the geometry problems.

Open the program and click through the buttons for various screens. Press ESC to get back to the original page.

It would be distorted in 4x3 mode but very useful for edges and linearity. Use your own conversion methods.

I could not find the original site but this is is a download site;

It's a well behaved program from majorgeeks, not like that other site (every time I ran the monitor program version from gooofull it would download off the 'net all over again, and that other site decided to make itself my "home" page in Firefox. Not nice... So far as I can tell, no viruses, just bad behavior from gooofull
