Post by: illtww on February 20, 2008, 11:08:11 pm

Guys..

My sis has this TV laying around and I remember it having a very good picture when she bought it in 2005.   It has component and I am thinking it will be a good fit for my cab. 

Can anyone tell me what resolution this thing will let me run. 640x480?

I  can't find Anything on the resolution etc..

Thanks Guys..  :)

SDTVs are pretty much equivalent to standard resolution arcade monitors.  This means you can run ~240 visible lines progressive or ~480 visible lines interlaced on them.  Maximum horizontal resolution is determined by the input bandwidth of the set and tends to be around 720.  320/640 would give you square pixels, which you probabaly want.

Note that TVs are overscanned, so you won't see the whole picture anyway without adjusting things.

What are your feeling on ths tv?  Should look good.

has the 3d comb filter.

Can I run windows at 640x480 if I had to?

Does the virtual pinball table require higher resolutions?  Like 1024x768..
