True Fullscreen and Samsung TV issue

[RustyCardores]

OK I’ve finally tried true full screen.

I’m not sure that I’ve gained any performance or resolved some stutter… perhaps a little?? …but after just a few tables, I think the display is much better quality. Finer more detailed if you will. Perhaps it’s just placebo effect?

Anyway…. my problem is my playfield TV.

Each time I change tables in PBX (focus), the Samy sees that as something new and displays it’s annoying Mode/Resolution banner for 5 seconds.  It’s a PITA and spoils the cab to be honest. I do want to persist with true fullscreen however, so I wonder if anybody has a work-around?

Is there a way to trick the Samy into thinking that nothing has change and that there is no need to display it’s stupid banner? (no it can’t be turned off in the TV)

Unfortunately not, it is a stupid Samsung behaviour ! It was one reason, I changed to a LG TV…

I guess I can put up with it for now, as I have just put my glasses on and true full screen is GORGEOUS!!

You can try to resolve that issue within Nvidia’s control panel, there you can set the output to a fixed setting where the gpu

takes care of pan & scan, refresh rate and resolution. Sometimes panels/monitors/tv’s can be stubborn (probably your sammy is one of them)

in that case use something like powerstrip to gain absolute control over your display settings.

Also most samsung (and almost any tv) have an engineering menu, they are accessible through a code.

You have to check your model for that on good’ol Google. (with my LG it was volume up+menu+power)

There you can set almost everything to suit your need, most likely you can get rid of that pesky info screen !

No luck with any of the above :(

The codes used within the engineer’s menu could mean anything to the untrained eye but, so I will see if I can find an engineer’s manual.

Just an update on this. With true full screen and ensuring that everything runs as admin (and whatever else I fiddled with?) the OSD now only displays briefly as the table gains focus. It no longer appears anywhere else (inc the loading screen) so I can live with that. ;)

This is the one negative I have about switching to Windows 10 from Windows 8.1.   Under Windows 8.1, the mode switch to True Full Screen was seamless.   Now under Windows 10, my monitor blinks and shows the HDMI logo in the corner for a bit (resyncing).   It’s not nearly as bad as what you’re describing, but it’s definitely an annoyance.

It’s Ok that I can play hundreds of classic tables at home… I guess. That’s cool.

 

But goddam this OSD that pops up!
