I'm rather tempted to say the reason is, paradoxically, because of the added (temporal) resolution and (spacial) clarity in the newer progressive displays. My best guess is that thanks to phosphor decay in CRTs, you effectively get the rough equivalent of a blend deinterlacer for each pair of fields, which also serves to smooth out artifacts and other noise that are rampant in analogue and lower resolution broadcasts. So, maybe apply a gaussian blur to every frame coming from an analogue source before displaying to a progressive HD display and it might look "equivalent" to your average CRT. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Freevo-devel mailing list Freevo-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-devel
