1024x768 would look okay on a big telly but it'd be a square picture with black borders down the sides cause it's not widescreen. (tho' it is technically hi-def)Quote:

Tolerable for watching once, like, on newer screens. Non-huge LCD-screens and the like.Quote:

Back-projection TVs come somewhere in between, in my experience.
It's debatable whether those constitute good tellies, though.
Thanks for that, good clear explanation and it's to your credit.
Obviously there'd still be the black borders on anything wide-screen, though. Or really fat-looking actors.
My last was at Peabody but it goes for Snee as well.
I wasn't really explaining nuthin, though. Just commenting and giving examples on what might let it look good.Quote:

Those resolutions are fine unless it's an HD Telly.
What if it's a wee HD TV.Quote:
