the reason early green screen looked terrible, is partly because it wasn't green screen, but blue screen, which caused the background to be overblown with blue. They switched to green screen because it's less dominant and easier to filter out

Sometimes i miss the height in 16:9 Productions. I always prefer the original Aspekt Ratio, but sometimes an old TV Series works great in 16:9 when it is transferred Frame by Frame. „Hart to Hart“ is an example where it works really well, especially outside. Inside the Villa the rooms can‘t show their potential because of the missing height and the actors taking too much Place of the screen.

SAD !!!😢

720 is HD, 1080 is FHD for "Full HD"

Good to know every monitor is now nostalgia.

How I long to play The Flowers of Robert Mapplethorpe on that one

Young Dennis Reynolds in the Phillips commercial lol

This is the game that made me fall in love with gaming and computers.

did they completely skip over the fact the US systems were made for 60 Hz NTSC? Hard to tell with Peter's commentary. Even if you got a different power supply and cable, TVs that could handle NTSC input were very rare back then

How about instead of abstracting technical specifications with buzzwords we just... call it what it is. 1080p. 720p. 6 mb/s internet, not "high speed internet", etc.

Always wondered as a programmer why it wasn't 1024 (2^10).

Your videos never show on my time line any more . Need to go looking for them !

the transition from analogue to digital and consolidation of all the different analogue techniques was quite beautiful and well designed

I remember when they started putting those black bars on movies it was always the worst

Interesting feature of Amiga computers: every program running could run at a different resolution and switching between them was seamless

We would of had Sega Neptune by now.

I must say that resolutions like 1920 x 1200 have been used for a long time among professional monitors, now you can still find laptops with high screens and a vertical resolution of 1200 pixels.

I presume 37" in the UK (tube size) would be around 34"~35" in the US (viewable screen size). In that case that's a pretty close size to the 32" set that my parents had. Thus it didn't strike me as being particularly mammoth-y when I first saw it in the video. And I don't think I would've immediately noticed the difference from a 32" set (of viewable screen size) if the viewable screen size didn't reach at least 37". Because the 40" (viewable screen size) flat Trinitrion from the early-mid 2000s had most definitely left an impression on me. CRT is still my favourite display type to this day.

The Japanese were right about choosing a 2:1 ratio. Closer to full widescreen instead of the academy 16:9 compromise that was settled for. However, I really do like the fact that TV and computer displays are all finally using the same resolutions. Very convenient.

So much that's just factually wrong. Skip it.

16 : 10 is SO much nicer.

This was a fun trip down memory lane. I was in my mid 20s during this time and thoroughly enjoyed socializing in Messenger and the chat rooms. Shortly before that I had just purchased my very first computer, a Dell Dimension L550r if I remember correctly, which I wish I had kept. I would frequent the Local, Sports, and Trivia rooms. The rooms also gave me the opportunity to start meeting people in person - guy friends and female romantic partners. Very first time in my life becoming social in real life. I was a loner up to that point, only having a few guy friends and never a girlfriend. I have fond memories of this era. What a time to be alive I also thought I was so cool when I started using the boot programs on others 😅

I remember, my 2007 laptop was 1280*800, back when most computer widescreen monitors were 16/10 for some reason.

Why is my MacBook now 1440 x 900? Where did that come from?

@NostalgiaNerd 12:19 4/3 720p is 720x540, not 720x480. 640x480 is 4/3 and you of all people should know that. Bit of an oopsie, eh?

All the terminology used , went over my head ... swoosh 🤔 boink

the lovechild of nostalgia critic and angry video game nerd

You forgot that we already did laserdisc HD, Satellite TV too. Should i make aa video about early HD myself ? Digital TV cards, large Computer monitors did the job, some Philips and Sony TV could do HDTV too, using computer standard connections over BNC

You should never be allowed to play JetPack ever again!

I miss my tall screen monitor.

Less surface area needed to provide a 50 inch screen.

Fulgore from Killer Instinct both its classic and it's Remake Version. Would make scrap heaps out of all of them.

To anyone who thinks 8k is a stupid/pointless step up from hd/4k - go to a trade show and watch a raw feed from a production camera to a production monitor It literally feels like your eyes are being *sucked out of your skull..* colour and detail _beyond_ colour and detail.. I was blown away the first time I saw a raw feed

Shout out to my millennial bro's who flexed with the 1080i 😂

14:03 photosensitivity warning

The 5:4 aspect ratio looks pleasing to me

your videos are so great, thank you thank you !!!

F*cking British English, going above my head🤬

19:52 CRAZY EX GIRLFRIEND MENTIONED!!!

I remember watching a 20/20 report on HDTV circa 1990 and the whole thing was them mostly saying "you can't see the difference on your tv at home, but trust us it looks much better"

I'm sorry but how is this video anything to do with nostalgia or retro gaming.?

Me in 2008, when my parents bought me a PC with a 16:9 monitor: "This is a super weird looking monitor. It's too wide. Something's not right!"😂😂

I mistook you for the 8 bit nerd.

Number pad was and still is the way to go for a lot of games. Especially 3-dof games like descent.

Amazing video, really loved it!

I literally ask myself this all the time and am so happy to have had this video come up in my feed. Amazingly explained. Insta sub!

Cinephiles who enjoy vintage movies and TV shows-more than you might think, and including pro photographers and movie DPs-tried for years but failed to persuade get the TV brands to issue 32" and larger 1080p LEDs and OLEDs in the 4:3 aspect ratio. I'm hoping that when I finally buy my 55" Sony OLED this year with its ultra thin bezel for my usually low lit living room those accursed vertical bars will be barely noticeable.

6:22 best illustration of bubble sorting ever 13:55 red = stop, green = go, yellow = go faster 16:57 guess these guys hadn't heard of multithreading :S, which is a bit hard to illustrate in an easy to understand manner, especially when you get into out-of-order processing and predictive algorithms
