8 Recommended LCD Monitors
All LCD monitors that support the resolutions listed in this document would work properly with the
HDVI-10. Based on our tests and experience, we recommend the following LCD monitors:
Samsung 172W (17”), NEC LCD1960SX (19”) and Samsung 240T (24”)
If your application uses 16x9 aspect ratio, select the Samsung 172W or 240T
If your application uses 4x3 aspect ratio, select the NEC LCD1960SX or LCD1980SX
For HDTVs and Projectors there is a large selection and Doremi has no specific recommendations.
8.1 Note about the Viewsonic VP2290b
The VP2290b is a 3840x2400 monitor that supports all formats generated by the HDVI-10. In
1080p (24/25/30) pass through mode, this monitor shows the image pixel to pixel. In addition this
monitor is pre-adjusted according to ITU-709 to be used as a high def. reference monitor. The
combination of the HDVI-10 with the VP2290b makes a low cost reference monitor that competes
with CRT reference monitors that are priced above $30,000 US Dollars.
8.2 Note about the Samsung 240T
The 240T is a 1920x1200 LCD monitor that supports all formats generated by the HDVI-10 except
1080p. For 1080i @60 applications we recommend the Samsung 240T over the Sony SDM-P232
because the 240T can display 1080i @60 pixel to pixel.
8.3 Note about the Sony SDM-P232W
The SDM-P232 is a 1920x1200 LCD monitor that supports all formats generated by the HDVI-10
except 1080i and 1080p.
8.4 Note about the Apple Cinema Displays
The Apple Cinema Displays 20” only supports a DVI signal at 1680x1050. The Apple HD Cinema
Displays 23” only supports a DVI signal at 1920x1200. Since the HDVI-10 cannot output these
resolutions, the Apple 20” and 23” monitors will not work with the HDVI-10.
Doremi Labs plans to have a new version of the HDVI converter specifically for the Apple Cinema
Displays available in the 3rd quarter of 2004. Current owners of the HDVI converter can add this
Cinema Display functionality by purchasing the upgrade.
