TV bitrate?
February 8th, 2020
I have an old 24″ TV I found in my attic, the quality is amazing on this thing xD
It’s analog, so there isn’t any ‘bitrate’

So, what is there if there’s no bitrate?
Answer #3
It’s a continuous signal, not a digital transmission.
Your digital tv is receiving a signal of 1’s and 0’s – and how fast it gets it is called the bit rate (because any one 1 or 0 is a “bit”).
An analog tv gets a continuously variable signal like a radio station (not digital radio!). It’s like your eyes, a constant stream of information.

Thanks for that link, I’m amazed by what we idiot humans can do, really.
Amazing quality, but what is the resolution then on a 24″? xD
Answer #5
i think you might be trying to look for standard definition telly’s
Answer #6
Is it an old CRT TV?
CRT TV’s have a resolution of 720×576 (PAL) or 720×480 (NTSC) It looks “better” because it scales the image however, it doesn’t have a “native resolution” like LCD screens, so you can watch any kind of ancient 320×200 signal even, and it will look pretty nice. And becuase it’s a pretty blurry image always, you don’t notice small faults in the quality, that’s why DVD rips look “better” on them than on LCD screens.
Answer #7
that’s DVD resolution, not TV resolution

Main article: Display resolution
Common computer and TV display resolutions.
The size of a video image is measured in pixels for digital video, or horizontal scan lines and vertical lines of resolution for analog video. In the digital domain (e.g. DVD) standard-definition television (SDTV) is specified as 720/704/640�480i60 for NTSC and 768/720�576i50 for PAL or SECAM resolution. However in the analog domain, the number of visible scanlines remains constant (486 NTSC/576 PAL) while the horizontal measurement varies with the quality of the signal: approximately 320 pixels per scanline for VCR quality, 400 pixels for TV broadcasts, and 720 pixels for DVD sources. Aspect ratio is preserved because of non-square "pixels".
