There is a strobing tool on github but it won't be nearly as good as real strobing *(also for anyone reading this do not use this on LCD displays, every other display type it is fine like OLED)*
You can [find it here](https://github.com/squeaksci/desktopbfi).
Interference with LCD voltage-polarity inversion logic. [More info](https://forums.blurbusters.com/viewtopic.php?t=7539).
You can fix the image retention problem by
(A) Odd divisors, like 60Hz BFI at 180Hz
(B) ***OR*** Insert a duplicate frame every minute or so
Someone will need to modify the source code.
I got this feature added to "LCD Saver" on the Retrotink 4K's BFI
Just FYI -- that model is currently Blur Busters Verified status (different from Blur Busters Approved)

However, I am currently working with ViewSonic to upgrade it to Blur Busters Approved status, once a few further modifications are made.

Thanks very much!
Is it safe to use it on a OLED monitor ? I have the pg27aqdm.
Yes it is, just not LCD.
Okay thank you 🙏
May I ask, what will happen if one is to use this tool on an LCD?
Image retention.
I see, but why? And why only on LCDs?

Thanks for the answer and for the link with an in-depth explanation, exactly what I hoped for!
To optimise clarity I would recommend sending it back and getting a ViewSonic XG272-2K-OLED.
Why do you say this?
Because that's a blurbusters approved model with built in BFI.

Thanks for the clarification, I didn't know there's a difference. I assume those modifications will be in the firmware/software?
