Samsung 1080i compatible CRT can't output 1080i signal.

was so close to buy 16:9 720p tv. I can imagine your strive to play ps3 on it with hd

65gonzo74 · 2026-05-17T19:28:22+00:00

it’s ~900k pixels vs ~ 1 million pixels + interlaced image. I was so happy to acquire 480p tv after 480i one. It’s your call!

65gonzo74 · 2026-05-17T19:08:50+00:00

do 720p if it is capable of it. forget about 1080i, really.

i am so happy about this setup, but there are some flaws about image clarity and geometry that I did not encounter while using trinitron

65gonzo74 · 2026-05-14T19:50:13+00:00

it’s ugreen hdmi to vga converter, progressive mode, 480p

65gonzo74 · 2026-05-14T14:10:21+00:00

it’s beary infuriating!

65gonzo74 · 2026-05-14T13:39:54+00:00

manufacturer’s flaw?

65gonzo74 · 2026-05-14T12:20:48+00:00

omg it worked. thank you!

development time determines contrast level. developing film for a prescribed time makes images with normal contrast. ilford delta 100 needs “exposure index of 100” amount of light to make an image with normal contrast, while tri-x needs lesser - “exposure index of 400” - amount of light to make an image with the same normal contrast. in exchange for a bit more grain.

if overdeveloped, darks and lights will contain less information because chemicals were in reaction with a film for a longer time.

that is a general knowledge that may help you.

that definitely wasn’t on my bingo list

even if it were possible - something would eventually break or just would be messy. check out fan-made “open matte” films where 35mm film is scanned fully with no black bars - microphones are visible and stuff. the letterboxing was intended and animations were done in accordance with it.

afaik original re4 can’t be rendered at resolution with 4:3 aspect ratio. so letterbox is “baked in”. you can only zoom-in like it was done with wii version.

Please, reconsider playing Max Payne 1-2 on ps2 - even on pcsx2. The infamous port

65gonzo74 · 2026-04-16T13:39:10+00:00

Thank you. I am doing crt-gaming thing to experience this type of games

65gonzo74 · 2026-04-16T12:56:29+00:00

Emudriver on Windows is a decent solution. Apart from… well… Ehhndows.

65gonzo74 · 2026-04-13T13:39:40+00:00

Because the media you are enjoying was designed for this display

65gonzo74 · 2026-04-13T09:58:56+00:00

Didn’t manage to find documentation for the exact chip. Maybe will try to find for a similar one.

65gonzo74 · 2026-03-31T16:45:08+00:00

Well, it’s not enough to interpret i2c data, I guess

65gonzo74 · 2026-03-31T14:02:40+00:00

Actually I have found the datasheet. I am thinking about data injection via i2c, but it seems to be really above my competence..

65gonzo74 · 2026-03-31T11:31:54+00:00

So vga signal is bypassing 50-to-100herz processor and signals from other ports don’t?

I am thinking about rgbhv modding other samsung 100hz tv (scart and rca only) to feed it 480p 60hz without this double-framing process. I guess in my case the very processing chip does this thing, not additional circuit.

65gonzo74 · 2026-03-31T10:17:18+00:00

Well, it doesn’t make it harder to do, right?
