problem. If you shoot a monitor screen that is displaying a live video, the
image may be distorted. Vertical stripes may appear on an LCD projector image.
Manually adjusting the dot clock at the projector side may help the problem.

the environment may reduce vertical stripes.
Check that the graphics driver and other device drivers on your computer are
updated. The latest device drivers are available from the computer
manufacturer.

quickly. In that case, adjusting the brightness manually may improve the
