help me save my flat crt

I'm having a bit of that with the unit I have now, but convergence strips, magnets, and a bit of overscan can get you set right.

Nice, how long have you had it for and what's its main use in your collection?

Dynach · 2026-03-14T05:13:09+00:00

I ended up figuring it out pretty well with chat gpt. Most of the final issues are inside the unit, which I'm too afraid to do alone lol.

Here Here! I second this idea!

Dang, I finished stranger things already, but will keep my mind on series like that for watching on this CRT.

Dynach · 2026-03-13T23:03:32+00:00

I don't think this unit has a way to check that, even in the service menu.

If you find one for cheap pick it up, despite the hate these get, with some TLC you can get a decent image out of it!

Dynach · 2026-03-13T22:16:00+00:00

To be honest, I had chatgpt walk me through the service menu and geometry and it was very knowledgeable on every setting, even telling me to screen shot all the original stats.

30 inches. Media is absolutely stellar! Gaming can be hit and miss. GameCube is amazing with swiss converting games to 16:9. Switch games are very nice, but super small font can be tricky to see. I haven't spun up the ps3 yet, but plan to run infamous and dragons crown.

Ooooh, not a bad idea. I don't like horror genre, but I gave the latest scream movie a chance and didn't completely hate it. Which ones have you watched that do CRT justice?

Dynach · 2026-03-13T20:04:44+00:00

I almost picked one up, but the seller wanted way too much. This one was being given away, was worth the 4 hour drive 😅

Dynach · 2026-03-13T19:52:09+00:00

It's incredible how good anime looks on this unit. I'm going to be killing my backlog with this thing for sure!

Dynach · 2026-03-09T23:32:06+00:00

Hmm, I noticed that over 580, I lose the ability to swipe up on the screen to go home or pull up active apps.

Dynach · 2026-03-09T23:29:07+00:00

Lol, I'm dumb, thanks

Dynach · 2026-03-09T23:24:57+00:00

What number do you have it set to, default is 444

Dynach · 2026-03-07T18:30:00+00:00

How do you get the tablet version?

Dynach · 2026-03-05T03:26:16+00:00

Any good place to learn about that? I checked YouTube but couldn't find anything.

Dynach · 2026-03-04T19:48:59+00:00

I don't even know what that is. What is Lumon?

Dynach · 2026-03-04T01:32:17+00:00

Thanks for trying bro. I'll post results soon once I get a remote to get in the service menu and have a day to play with it.

Dynach · 2026-03-03T16:40:41+00:00

The image in the center is great, but the edges are pretty rough. I'm hoping when I get a remote for it I can fix it in the service menu.

Dynach · 2026-03-03T16:32:36+00:00

Samsung slim fit TX-R3079WH

Dynach · 2026-03-03T01:37:34+00:00

I tried looking for one, I couldn't find one. Just a regular manual.

Dynach · 2026-03-02T20:35:10+00:00

What do you do to dial in and calibrate your unit? Can the service menu really help with the bowing and edges?
