    Thought About Scan Lines

    I have often wondered once HDTV becomes the norm, how are they going to portray a television broadcast during a movie???

    You know how in a movie if they want you to feel as if you are watching a broadcast signal on a TV, the image is low res, and has the readily apperent scan lines? How will this be presented in future movies? It will be hard to show that you are watching TV within a movie once HDTV is standard :B

      Terrific question,Bing. It's probably the kind of thing I'd wonder about while contemplating my navel.

        Heheh, I may have come up with this during navel contemplation :W

        Maybe it will be the reverse and they will do that paste an image look where it looks too good to be real, you know like all those simulated image looks for PC monitors and TV's advertisements?

        Or maybe it will be presented with the 60Hz hum bars sweeping the screen?

          Yeah, probably the latter, Bing.

            There's been so much confusion and misunderstanding about this aspect of HomeTheater, that I decided to post a primer on the subject to try and help those that are unsure about it, or even worse - are totally confused.

            It didn't take long for widescreen to spoil me.

            Since I've gotten my new HDTV widescreen monitor I've been surfing trying to learn more about when I would be able to really take advantage of viewing OTA widescreen broadcast and exactly what digital television would bring to the table...

            Every once in a while, something pops up on my HD television channels that bugs me. These happen both on my OTA local HD antenna channels and satellite HD. Sometimes they'll show a shot or commercial that is in widescreen format, but letterboxed into a standard 4:3 screen, (giving black bars on the...
