HI-DEF? Retrofit B&W TV! JPEG obsolete? (LOL!) DIY!
Posted: Wed Apr 25, 2007 2:52 pm
In the latest Nuts and Volts there was a statement that JPEG may become obsolete,
and while that may be true, if all things must pass, but I don't see something called
HD-photo from Microsoft replacing it. What would Mac and other computers use?
Jpeg, because the web is full of Jpeg, and unless one open source line of Perl can
convert it to HD-photo, there will still be Jpegs.
I perceive HD as something defined while under the influence of dope, and nothing more.
HD radio and TV are just regular radios and computer monitors with signal
scrambling added at a premium. I'll now show you how you can retrofit an old
BLACK AND WHITE high quality security monitor to PROJECT
a large BEYOND 1080i PLUS COLOR color image onto a movie screen!
The B&W TV must be turned up full brightness, and it's tuner may be modded
to tune HDTV signal except perhaps in the USA. New TV's must filter out the
signal or be able to comply with broadcast flags. Actually old B&W tuners are
often relatively very good.
It is untimely that a method of converting B&W to color widescreen comes
now, or is it? Imagine all the pollution made by the mountain of old TV's if
we don't mod them into new ones. It's simple, and published to public domain.

Does any of your digital stuff sound better than Quad Hi-Fi? How about your cell phone?
Notice that analog to digital conversion is Sampling, which is lossy. And compression
is lossy. So with all that loss, what's the gain?
It's a conspiracy called "LESS IS MORE, SO BUY IT, EVEN THOUGH IT'S STILL FREE!"
If this technique is used with a high quality analog security monitor,
it may be possible to look at the image "with a microscope" in a the forensics lab.
Digital images might never beat film, cinematography, celluloid,
or whatever you call it. Anyway, here's the simple analog B&W to HD conversion:
It at least gains Color!
PSEUDO-HIGH-DEFF FROM B&W TV:
I hope the diagram comes out bigger than in the preview.
How it works is the screen is coated with either ORANGE/CYAN or RGB,
and beam splitters combine the color coated images,
and a projection lens puts that on the wall.
Some simple mods to the sync and some color preprocessing (more or less)
are necessary, as well as maybe some yoke adjustment.
The B&W TV will work better for HD than a modified color TV for several reasons.
This has been tested and it works. Even with "Rabbit Ears"!
Nuts & Volts, why not Tell us how HDTV works, not just Sell us???

Generation X had ipods with free download buttons. (Walkmans and Boomboxes)
Generation X had unlimited minutes on their phones. They were called "walkie-talkies".
Generation X could buy a song for 99 cents on a big black groovy CD, or play it
for 25c on a public music player called a Juke Box
Generation X could "text" for free using morse code. Easy...There was only one key.
Generation X could make their own videogames if they had the computer game consoles.
Generation Y, do you feel ripped off?
