Colors out of alignment over DVI

Hello forum,
I've connected my Mac mini 1.66 Core Duo to my Samsung HL-R5067W via DVI-to-HDMI. I do get an image, and I can correct the overscan using the Display preferences, but the image appears to be "out of convergence". Here's a photo:

I was pretty sure this was caused by a bad cable, so I replaced it to no avail. I've not seen this sort of artifact before and I can't seem to find any other discussions that cover this problem. I'd sure like to use my HDMI rather than falling back to VGA if possible.
Any clues?
Thanks,
Chris

Why is that a plus? Because of no HDCP?
As far as setup - it was a BREEZE. OS X detected "SAMSUNG DLP" and gave me a sensible list of resolutions. I had to uncheck "Overscan" on another tab so that the dock and Finder menu were not chopped off. Actually, turning off overscan results in a slightly letterboxed (1/2" all around on a 50") picture but I am not sure this isn't fixable with a 3rd party utility...
Either way, video quality is quite good at 720p using VGA. I can't wait to see it (hopefully) with DVI at 1:1. At least I'm hoping that what I'm getting is 1:1 pixel mapping

  • Completely new macbook pro 15" screen out of alignment.

    Hi,
    I ordered my first Macbook pro 15" retina on december 24th 2013 as a Christmass gift for myself. I recived it on my address January 2'nd i unboxed it an was really happy about, the only thing that annoyed me a bit was that the sceen is like half a milimeter to 1 milimeter out of allignment with the body, i know this isn't alot but i am a bit of a perfectionist so it annoyed me a little, so i told myself that it might just be normal that it is a little out of allignment.
    but today my girlfriend recived her Macbook pro 13" retina, and it is perfectly alignet with the body, so i decided that i had to ask in here if this is a common thing,
    Do i have to worry about this? will my screen become lose or even more out of alignment over time? or am i just to way sensetive and have to take a chill pill
    But again i paid almost 3000$ for the Macbook with Apple Care, so i dont want to walk around being worried about it having a failure from the factory,
    And 3000$ is alot of cash when you under education like me.
    i live in Denmark so i can't just take it to a Apple store and ask them to look at it, and if i have to return it then i have no laptop and i have quite alot of homework atm :/

    I called them and described the problem, and the guy in the phone immediately told that he was sorry, and that he will get me an other Macbook pro as fast a possible, and then he will send TNT to pick up my old one when i have recieved the new one.
    I should recieve a new Macbook on monday, and TNT will call me within 48 hours to arrange the pick up of my old Macbook,
    Awesome service, i can't affort 1 day without my Macbook and because of this awesome service i wont have to

  • HP LaserJet Pro 200 color M251nw Printing Out of Alignment

    Images and color text print out of alignment.
    The issue started the first day we had the print.  It has taken me a while to get into diagnosing it but I have tried the following:
    I have tried replacing the toner cartridges with new ones (expensive).  The problem occured even with the original starter cartridges.
    I have tried a full printer reset.
    I have tried leaving the printer unplugged from power for 24 hours.
    I have tried several alignment features within the printer menu.
    Printing black alone is fine.  All other colors do not line up with each other or with the black.  Creates a 3D-ish kind of effect.
    The printers quality report shows all colors areprinting fine but not aligned to one another.
    I have included scans of a part of a rainbow print that illustrates the misalignment as well as the quality report page.
    This question was solved.

    Thanks for letting me know James_LAG.

  • CP1215 Color LaserJet out of alignment

    Black and white seems fine but all the colors are out of alignment.  I have tried calibration, cleaning (via the print cleaning sheet) changing toners and a new driver (Win 7 64bit) but these things did not work.
    Any ideas?

    I also have the same problem and have not  been able to fix it using the HP toolbox calibration as recommended. It would be nice to see an answer from HP.
    I have tried calling HP support but did not get any other suggestions.

  • How to connecttwo external 19" LCD panels over DVI to MBP

    Hi,
    Is it possible to connect two 19" LCD panels over DVI to a MBP and run them as a single extended desktop?
    I've not been able to find an answer in the many posting and I get the impression its possible, but I'm not sure. I get more doubtful when I start to figure out how to do the cabling (daisy-chain the panels, use a DVI splitter?).
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Do you use this set-up with multiple monitors and the extended desktop?
    I ask because I followed your suggestion but at the Matrox site (http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/cadgis/products/th2go/th2go.php) all the indications are that it only works with Windows. Even the user handbook doesn't reference Apple at all.
    It sounds like a great idea, but I'd like to verify it works before spending the $300.

  • Pixma MX922 - BK appears to be out of alignment. PGBK, C, M, Y all (relatively) perfect.

    Hey all, I've actually submitted this to Canon support, but I thought I'd bring up the issue since it's pretty strange and I would think that anyone familiar with it might see this post and go... "Oh hey, I know that!"
    So... Pixma MX922... I appear to be having issues with BK (not PGBK). Text is distorted, or "fat" (wider than it should be and fuzzy) and if it's small text you can see what appears to be a duplicate offset, what I believe is the difference between the PGBK and BK... it appears the dye black is out of alignment independently from the colors and PGBK as evidenced from the print head check page.
    The solid rectangular bars to the left and right of PGBK are crisp and solid, as is the grid to the right. The bars of black to the left and right of C, M, Y, and BK are distorted, getting fatter to the center of the bar. The actual color samples are all a solid crisp rectangle but the BK pattern is also distended on the sides.
    Here's an example of the print check: i.imgur.com/Bt8SYer.jpg
    Steps I've taken:
    cleaned heads (incl. deep cleaning)
    cleaned timing strip
    aligned heads automatically and manually.
    Ideas?
    Thanks!

    Hi jurassicfrog,
    if performing the alignments, print head cleanings and cleaning of the timing encoder film of the printer did not resolve the error, the printer will require servicing; please call or email us using one of the methods on the Contact Us page for further assistance.

  • External display won't work over DVI

    I've got an ViewSonic vx2025wm hooked up to my MacBook Pro. It used to work fine over DVI, but some time ago the monitor stopped being able to detect the signal and I had to switch over to VGA (via my Apple DVI-to-VGA adapter). That works fine at the full resolution of the external display, but the image quality leaves something to be desired.
    Strangely, the external display works just fine in Windows XP via Boot Camp. Oh, the irony!
    Any ideas on how to get this working again? I dread the OS X re-install.

    Same problem here. Had a Dell 30" monitor plugged in for a long time. Suddenly stopped working yesterday. The symptoms: the Mac detects the external display and "thinks" it's got it there (I can tell because the active content of the window is gone on the laptop's screen), but the display does not successfully see the output from the Mac (it shines its orange "no signal" light).
    Restarting does not seem to help.
    I should test it with a new display cable, but am a little reluctant to do this, as the dual link DVI cables required for this monitor are so expensive, and because previous posters on this topic have tried swapping cables with no result.

  • Crop marks out of alignment on double sided pdf

    I have an Indesign CS4 two page document I have saved as a press pdf with crops. The client has just told me the double sided proof has come back with the crop marks out of alignment (offset vertically). Isn't this something the printrer can easily sort, or should I be setting it up differently in Indesign??
    Cheers

    You should set it up as facing pages if it is double sided.
    I don't see a reason to do that for a two-page document. It makes it harder to scroll between the pages since thay are not vertically aligned on the pasteboard and it should have no effect on things like crops.
    And yes, screen shots of the page in ID and the PDF would help a lot....

  • My web pages appear out of alignment on small screens.

    Hi,
    My web pages are correct on my large monitor but, the right side of the pages go out of alignment on smaller screens such as my laptop or even if I reduce the window size of my monitor. I used a 2 col, hdr, ftr, liquid layout in html 5. I did a browser check and fixed the suggested errors but it didn't fix the alignment thing. The site is http://www.thelandingivylea.com

    You have the wrong design for a liquid layout. Since you certainly want to retain your design, give the DIVs fixed widths.

  • Spry menu out of alignment in IE

    Not sure if this is the right place ... I am new to Dreamweaver and CSS but I have created a spry menu (horizontal) and everything looks good in all browsers except IE, the main container which is green is out of alignment with the menu bar at the top. I have been fiddling with this for weeks. Any help would be much appreciated. The link is as follow:

    thanks.

    PS please reply in language that a rookie can understand.

    Hi Gramps
    Thank you … I took a look at the web address you sent me, but couldn’t figure out what I was supposed to do with it! Then I tried setting the individual widths of the menu items and this has improved the appearance in IE to the point where I can live with it. What puzzles me though is why, if the cumulative total of the menu items measure 946 px and the ‘main‘ div also measures 946, they don’t exactly match up exactly lengthwise.
    Also your comment about not using ‘absolute’ positioned divs … I have been learning Dreamweaver from the Adobe manual and it recommends that you use absolute positioning for the ‘main’ div and so I thought everything else within the container (other than the container itself which I have set to relative) should be absolute. Are you saying that I should not use absolute for the main div or are you just referring to the menu div? If I don’t use absolute what should I use?
    Thanks so much for your assistance, most appreciated.

  • Text shifting out of alignment when previewed in Muse or in web browser

    Hi,
    I am having issues with some title text not staying where I want it to. Here are some images: http://imgur.com/a/ZX6z9
    The first image shows how I have the page set up in the planner. The text in question is the title "Art Portfolio". If you look at the other two images, the second one being Muse's preview function and the third being in Safari, you will see that the title has shifted down a little in relation to the rest of the site. It is easily noticed because it throws the title out of alignment with the menu.
    Anyone have any idea how to resolve this issue? I can compensate by moving it a bit higher in the planner, but I would very much prefer that the software worked as intended rather than me having to intervene.
    Thanks for any help!
    Andrew Bennett

    Hi Thrfoot,
    I have a similar text issue with resizing occurring in preview and live mode. I believe text boxes (unlike web pages) are responsive to browser width. Just for grins, try keeping your Orbitron font and making the text box slightly wider and see if that helps. It may not, but I had to jiggle mine about quite a bit to keep it in line with everything else.
    Cheers,

  • Excel printing looks out of alignment

    All in One C410A. Print works fine in all programs except MS Excel. My printouts look like the printheads are out of alighnment; both vertical and horizontal depending on the file. This did not happen until I moved to the C410. My old C309 the print was perfect.

    I am having the exact same issue with my 410; it looks as though the printer heads are out of alignment.
    Has anyone seen a sollution? It occurs in the middle of the page but only in Excel.
