Victorian:
I did test that, and also the other things you mentioned. No luck yet, but Im gonna try with stronger ir leds. After testing Im pretty sure that will solve the problem. Thanks for the help, Ill report back soon :)

Thats unfortunate,I was hoping it would work for you.Post a video once you have the higher intensity leds of that screen in action.I would love to play some area 51 on that sucker,lol.
AndyWarne:
It really should not be necessary to use brighter LEDs for any size of screen. They are already very high brightness. Furthermore if another LED bar is made which simply has the same LEDs at each end (as in the Wii) it will NOT work. It would cause the aim of the gun to jump horizontally at random.

The most common reason for not working with a large screen is being too close, the min distance needs to be approx 2 X the screen width.

Victorian:
Thanks for the input Andy,

Ill be home tomorrow and test it again, will see if it works with a longer ir sensor bar.

Ill also try placing sensor bar below the screen, if the gun can aim above it also then the bar can be mounted inside the picture instead of above it, that would give more reach to bottom half of screen.

The challenge is to have a big screen in a small room, its far from ideal but I dont want to use a smaller screen or move it to a different location if I can avoid it :)
Victorian:
The longer sensor bar did wonders, it works perfectly now.

Thanks for the help! :)
