Long sync times TV :)

[CrazyBoss]

Using my Intellivision at a modern LED LG TV, I found out it skips between 200 and 900 frames. Which actually means i didn see the lines animation at LTO flash.

 

I made a little rom that shows the frames, so if you are interested to know how fast your tv sync, you can test with this rom.

 

I later connected my Intellivision to a Small Samsung TV/Monitor. LCD 14". It only skips 4 frames.

There is usually a setting in some LCD TVs to "smooth" the flicker of film. It works by sampling some frames and interpolating between them. Could that be it?

 

I always disable that feature on my TVs. I hate watching movies that look like a "soap opera."

A lot of newer televisions have a "game" mode that disables a lot or all of the processing.

Oh, that's cool. So I would recommend to CrazyBoss to look in the instruction manual or to search online for that particular TV model.
