| 881170 | 2010-04-30 03:20:00 | Just occurred to me - if someone has an older-stle 26" CRT Television hooked up to a PS3 via composite cable to watch movies etc, what would the maximum resolution be? To my thinking there would be 3 factors to consider: - The resolution of the source video file (for arguments' sake, lets say it's 720p) - The maximum resolution capable via composite connections - The maximum native resolution of the TV |

| 881171 | 2010-04-30 04:20:00 | Probably the standard PAL resolution, 576i IIRC. Maybe 576p if you're lucky, but I don't know if you can have a progressive-scan picture over composite. Gah, wikipedia isn't helping much, just throwing numbers at me. 525, 625, 576, 480... pick one. |

| 881172 | 2010-04-30 09:12:00 | It'll use, or be happy with the standard PAL resolution of 754x576, 25fps, provided it was made for NZ use and isn't some poxy american NTSC system. | Paul.Cov (425) | ||

| 881174 | 2010-04-30 10:07:00 | crts can't display in progressive scan en.wikipedia.org I think the progressive scan is a function of the TV circuitry, not of the CRT itself. |
