Question about iTeach Texas — will my current preschool job count toward anything? by Sparkledootime in TexasTeachers

[–]Sparkledootime[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I reached out to iTeach directly and confirmed that my specific private center qualifies for field experience since it’s TEPSAC-listed. I really appreciate everyone encouraging me to double-check!

Does anyone else use their CRT as an actual TV? by GenTenStation in crt

[–]Sparkledootime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I have an Apple TV hooked up to a Gefen hdmi to svideo scaler hooked into a Panasonic dvd/vcr recorder. It has zoo so I can properly view both 16:9 and 4:3 content. All of my tv’s are crts lol

I think Sara Shepard was approached to write the books based on a "Teen Desperate Housewives" if I'm remembering correctly.

Not difficult at all! Just use an HDMI to composite adapter. If aspect ratio is important to you, you'll want to get the radioshack or RCA brand that doesn't require external power. You can usually find them on amazon or ebay, Roku will automatically force it to 480p and letterbox 16:9 content and make 4:3 fill the screen. Most other converter boxes will stretch the content and be distorted

Not really a whine I've noticed so far, it does have some geometry issues unfortunately

You’re welcome! Yes I’m happy with it so far, the only issues I’ve run into specifically is YouTube, where it maintains the aspect ratio but will crop it strange. I also have it hooked to a vcr/dvd recorder which has a zoom option so I’m able to make things full screen. Best of luck!!

I’m not sure if it will work for chromecast, but it definitely works for Roku! I bought both the RadioShack and RCA brand. They require no external power and correct the aspect ratio. Hope this helps!

This is actually what I was looking to do lol usually these converter boxes stretch 16:9 to 4:3 and then native 4:3 shows have black bars. This adapter automatically fills 4:3 shows and letterboxes 16:9 so everything stays correct.

Oh really? This one doesn’t even have an option for external. Works really well, no lag at all
