Directx overlay that nulifies dimmed or light leak edges and corners #179

Open Srksii opened 5 years ago

Srksii commented 5 years ago

I have that dimmed corner on my monitor that makes me crazy, especially when some game is in dark environment. Placing frame counter in game helps somewhat, but its not true solution, and thats how I got this idea. Some software that will dim/brighten corners and edges by choice to correct monitor faults. Now, I dont know to program yet, can although I can try to design ui and general concept how it could work

@Srksii, why not just replace the failed LEDs with new ones?

Srksii commented 5 years ago

@KOLANICH Even Im capable of doing that, I dont prefer tinkering with perfectly good monitor cos one lightly dimmed diode, and who knows how much people out there dont know to do that, or cannot do that cos monitor warranties

cannot do that cos monitor warranties

Then it is definitely a defect which must be covered by a warranty.

with perfectly good monitor

If it was perfectly good, there would have been no problem.
