redryder Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 I changed from a 29" CRT to a 32" LCD recently, and my wife complains that the scrolling text on ChannelNewsAsia is going by too fast on the new TV compared to the old one. Initially I was sceptical, as intuitively you would think that it is the same speed. But then I thought about it further... The text has to travel a longer distance on the 32" TV compared to the 29". Since the time available for scrolling is the same , in order to travel a greater distance it must travel at a higher speed. Sounds logical. Can anyone dispute or verify this?

louco73 Posted October 10, 2007 Posted October 10, 2007 For best effect put your widescreen TV on one of the smart modes so that the centre is not stretched too much and the sides are stretched more. The text comes on the screen fast, slows down and then speeds up again ;).
boseguru Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 Or she can sit further away from the screen. :-X Hahaha. She can sit further away from the screen. that's a good one. Bro, it ain't like they upgraded from a 29inch to a 100inch you know. Hahaha. Have you tried asking your mother to sit further away from the TV, or for that matter doing anything different from what she's been doing practically her whole life?? Hahaha. Human beings, bro. Human beings. But good one anyway.
naglfar Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 Speed should be the same right? Eveything is scaled / enlarge to the same ratio...
