xlightframe

xlightframe allows you to use the LightFrame(tm) or LightFrame(tm)2 function of some Philips monitors.

Philips LightFrame(tm) is a technology for TV-quality video and photo display on a computer monitor. LightFrame(tm) displays sharp, bright videos or photos on a Philips CRT monitor by increasing the contrast ratio of a selected screen region.

xlightframe is an independent program that has no relation to or links with Philips.

A few LightFrame(tm) and LightFrame(tm)2 capable monitors: 105B, 107S, 107T, 107B, 107P, 109B and 109S.

This program has been tested and works fine with my Philips 107S 17" LightFrame(tm) Monitor.

It includes two programs: xlightframe and xlfollow. With xlightframe you can choose a region to highlight either interatively or by giving geometry parameters. xlfollow will follow a window as long as it exists and adjusting the highlighted region as the window moves around.
