Some examples of 4:3 & 16:9 burn-in on rear projection CRTs. Note the outer area that is most white is virgin phosphor that has not worn. The darker inner parts is where the electron beam has struck the phosphors on the insides of the tube to create a picture causing even burn-in over time wearing the phosphors out resulting in a dimmer picture. Tubes for rear and front projectors are driven brighter and get hotter as a result. These tubes are liquid cooled to stop the glass from cracking. The coolant chambers have been removed to give an unhindered look directly at the tube faces.

The turbulent history of B&O's Beovision MX range. The slim cabinet design of the MX range disallowed B&O's existing chassis to fit inside. This necessitated 3rd party chassis to be incorporated into the MX range which lead to reliability problems.

99% of the time if your display has scart, it can accept RGB. Occasionally a scart tv comes along that makes up the 1% with no RGB support. In the past I have seen NEC scart tvs that are not wired for RGB. This NEC supports component through a separate input. Surely scart RGB is supported on this big 80cm/32" TV? https://www.facebook.com/RGB.Rob Email: rgb-gaming@aussiebroadband.com.au Time stamps 0:00 Intro + plus front of TV features 0:47 Back of TV - inputs/outputs 1:56 Inside 2:57 Wiring/pinout of the scart connector 3:50 Service Manual 4:45 NTSC S-Video test patterns 5:15 Playstation 2 via component video 6:50 Conclusion
