HD TVs
 

I have one here which is a 22" widescreen HD. I can easily see it's not 1080 lines, and not even 720 is very sharp. A slightly smaller computer monitor (19") has 1200 lines and it needs them. Less than that is awful.

And the wall mount is indeed a piece of ****. Mind you, I'm using it vertically rather than horizontally, so it needs to take the weight of the TV on the joints, so it keeps drooping.

With regard to DIY, why is it that the devices sold to mount them on a
wall seem to me at least to be rather flimsy?

Why would it need to convert? I've fed it both 1080 lines and 720 lines from the PC and both are out of focus. So clearly the actual panel is neither of those numbers.

And the wall mount is indeed a piece of ****.

Because there is no simple integer conversion between the lines
it has and what its given. If say its given 600 lines in your example,
it just puts each line its given on two of the lines on the screen.

If its given 720 or 1080 lines it cant do that.

I've fed it both 1080 lines and 720 lines from the PC and both are out of
focus.

See above.

Correct.

That's why I said use it, stupid.

So you should have used a better one.

Which is stupid seen as it's a TV and not a monitor. The native resolution should match at least one of the standard TV formats.

Wouldn't that require a lot of processing power? You can do an intelligent resize on one image in photoshop, using a PC's CPU. But it takes more than a 50th of a second. And it would be cheaper to use a decent LCD panel than put a CPU that powerful in.

And the wall mount is indeed a piece of ****.

It can, just not very well.

But my point is it should never have been made, and they shouldn't be allowed to sell anything saying "HD" if it isn't.

Yes, but that's just one way of doing it.

Its not possible to have the lcd panel that can do
it all, particularly show both 4:3 and 16:9 so you
don't get silly skinny people or very fat ones.

The best TVs do that by having the middle of the
screen showing the people properly and the left
and right sides as different aspect ratio. You cant
do that with the lcd screen physical structure.

And the wall mount is indeed a piece of ****.
