FlorianBest,Once you are sure the video card is doing the right thing, you can experiment with the settings in Expyriment. If the default setting does not allow for accurate presentation reports, try setting control.defaults.open_gl=3 (alternative blocking), before starting the test suite.Hi Theo,what your are describing sounds as if your video card is not synching to the vertical retrace. What video card are you using (and which driver, on which OS)? There is usually an option for it in the video driver settings. While you are in there, make also sure that no power saving is going on (Nvidia for instance calls this "Adpaptive Performance"; this should be changed to "Maximum Performance").

Hi and thank you very much for distributing this nice package !
I am experiencing a problem of refresh rate on my laptop : the test suite gives me an anormaly high result, between 500 and 1200Hz when I only have a 60Hz monitor.
I tried with different settings for open_gl, but this doesn't seem to affect the result of the test suite.
What's more, when I run my task and measure the timing of presentation with a photodiode it seems that expyriment doesn't block the execution of the code until the frame is presented : the trigger code I send right after the presentation of the stimuli arrives about 40ms before the signal measured by photodiode...
Do you have any advice that could help with this ?
Thanks in advance !
Théo

Mmh, your video card does not support blocking on the vertical retrace apparently. If setting "control.defaults.open_gl=3" does not improve things, then I am afraid that there is nothing you can do. I personally have similar experiences with Intel graphic cards. I have good experiences with Nvidia cards.Some background: We use the OpenGL GL_FINISH call to achieve the blocking. It seems that video card drivers have some freedom in implementing this routine. At least this is how I understand the situation.Oh wait, just looked at your screenshots again. One last thing to try: Is there a setting in the Intel driver settings to use a double buffer (instead of a single one, as it does right now)? If so, try setting it to use a double buffer.Best,Florian

Hey,
Sorry for the lack of clarity. Here's the results with the vertsync setting on 'Applications settings' :
And with vertsync on 'Driver settings' :
