DMD Test

Working out if I needed a DMD, or if I could use one of the software adaptations of a LCD screen required some sample video.

MPF has features in its display implementation that mimic DMDs. The techniques used are straight forward, so this testing should be fine for a MPF installation, or something else developed with graphic and video tools, or for different Media Centre solutions, like Unreal Engine, etc.

I took some video samples I had at high resolution, and a static image, and converted them for use with MPF MC. I plonked them into the existing demo software with some gentle changes here and there. I was satisfied with the result, and some assumptions about improvements from tweaking the sources.

These examples are animated GIFs, so the quality is not as good as the original.
