[GUIDE] N96 models & Note

Hi! Due there is 5 versions of N96 and it's a little eas to misunderstood, I made a image to help clarify and also don't have to answer many times tes question.

Important to say that regal refresh function only woks with Neoreader, but, as a user said here, maybe other apps can be patched.

The only differences between any N96 and the Note are in the sceen: 0'5" bigger screen, a flexible(Mobius) screen and a much better resolution, 1404x1872, achieving 300dpi. Even android version will be the same, and who knows about the future (I emailed onyx people and said this to me"

Hope someone find this usefull ;
(Dr Drib , I didn't find the image rules. Don't ban me if he image is to big jaja)

Are you sure? In several (not all) other apps, I cannot get the classic ghosting I am used to if I do not smudge the screen with graphite.

Not really. I thought I read it in someplace, but not sure. So you see an improvement in ghosting with many apps? Which model do you have?

Does anyone know about the refresh rate or how mobius work with the eink??

I am talking with Onyx boox people to buy the N96ML+ (Carta) version. They have it developed and assembled but still they don't have putted to sell yet anywhere. It's a little unconfortable due their easy missunderstanding of english. I am going to buy the N96ML+ because I don't want to wait to the e-Note!! And the new version f the N96 is smoother than old one, so it's fine.

Here is a video of the different models of Onyx and the regal function. If it works the same fine way in all apps and situation it will be my savoir in the VNC scenario. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CF1RZ-UVCA

The video VNC is impressive... it is using grayscale, not A2, right?

Neither of them. In Raspbian, the linux for the Raspberry pi I use, its not possivle to set the color to greyscale, so its a normal Vnc connection. But fue the small processor of the eReader, we must set a low resolution of 800x600.

I'm sorry. I wrote VNC instead VLC. I was asking about the VLC video.

Any chance you could test out a 3rd party drawing app, such as Autodesk sketchbook? I am interested to see how having A2 mode and regal refresh helps with display lag, which seemed to be quite long on the pearl version. I'm also interested in pen accuracy as well as how well such apps work without multi-touch. Besides the slow processor and lack of support for installing linux, the N96ML+ checks all the boxes I've been hoping for in a tablet.

I'm also waiting to find out when the lighter version of the N96 line will be available. I thought September was the target...

Edit: Also the table in the original post seems wrong. I don't think the N96ML+ has capacitive touch, but rather EMR.

@edgex004 , Yes I could test it without. I will try the one you mentioned, and if you want another to test send me an MP and will do. Then I will post the results.

It's strange the table is wrong, because I made it following the info Onyx gived to me, but for the same reason, it's probably. I will check it...

@fbrzvnrnd , The answer is the same as for the VNC. A2 mode and AFAIK is not possible to set grayscale in linux.

I do not understand: the VLC I see in video is an Android App, not a linux one...

@fbrzvnrnd You are right, I mixed things. I recommend BSplayer instead of VLC, as it seems to me to be less resources consumption. To play videos I have to encode everything I want to see there. I encode video to 840x480 and the audio to mp3 on mp4 format. I am experimenting now with the ogg format due I have some flow problems with some black and white movies. The video you saw in the review is from a color episode of Adventure time

@edgex004 I tested Autodesk Sketchbook and Medipaint. Both had installed well, but there is some lag, just a little, but is there. Also, I have to point is a little messy, even outside the draw apps. Probably it would be fixed if another stylus is bougth, and also I think it will work better with the simple stylus from M96. Sadly I sold it and I can't test it.
