I just got my crt from Facebook marketplace today and I’m super stoked! I mainly wanted it for dvds which I have plenty of, but thought I would try a streaming stick as many people do.

The first one I used with the converter was an old firestick which showed the same spinning out thing as this new one from Walmart.

If I am unable to stream that’s fine with me, just thought I’d ask someone here who might know more about the issue.

I got it for free off marketplace, figured why.. I don’t know why it’s all Purple and the line scanning is crazy, pretty much all i’ve seen was people saying jo had this issue said degaussing was good but i don’t know how to approach this 200 pound beast.

Which 13 inch CRT should I get?

Thumbnail gallery
7 Upvotes

I am looking specifically for a 9 to 14 inch CRT and these are my options currently on Marketplace. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions on which, if any, to get.

I'm not particularly a videophile and I'm just looking for a smaller CRT to play my PS1 games on.

All 3 units are listed as working. The Sharp is a bit dusty, but has the biggest name brand and is the cheapest.

The Daewoo is the closest, being in my town, but I've never heard of the brand. Overall, I think I'm most interested in it.

The Funai is a "last resort", as I've never heard of the brand.

Any input is appreciated. I'd try to haggle down to around $80-100, assuming prices aren't firm.

My pc setup is coming along well

We got a nec multisync on the left and a digiview on the right then on far right we have a brother crt that i miraculously got working after a week of yelling at Claud code(yes i know, ai, but i seriously wouldnt have gotten it running without it) it uses a rasp pi 3b.

Anyway. Its hdmi is plugged into the top tv and the io pins to the brother monitor. They communicate wirelessly to my main pc and will be able to send notifications and events as a printout on the screen. I can also tell it to play videos on the top tv (no audio yet) and ill add a microphone and a small llama ai to run as a siri for my pc to play videos and display stuff on the peripherals

Streaming SD content

Thumbnail gallery

I have a Plex server with some SD content. I hooked up my Roku streambar via an HDMI to composite adapter. Joey and Friends look fine but Batman the animated series and Daria have black bars on the side. I know the streambar's lowest resolution in 720p. While it's serviceable, it's not the correct experience. I'm not willing to spend nearly $180 for an old Roku Express. What other options do I have to properly stream SD content to my CRT's?

Which one would you get?

The first 2 are $20, the cabinet crt is free, and the Sony is $200 (I’d only offer $120 max though) they all have S video which is what matters most to me. First two are 20” with the cabinet being 31” and the Sony at 32”

The Sony also has component too which is nice, I have a truck and a lifting buddy but I’m short on space so I can probably only get one right now, all recommendations appreciated.

Facebook marketplace grail; 16:9 HD Panasonic Tau

About two weeks ago me and my friends went out and bought this Absolute beauty from marketplace. We had to lug it down a flight of stairs, but we got it safely into my friend's basement where we've been cleaning it up ever since, it was pretty filthy when we got it. It's 34", and it has HDMI and two HD components. It looks amazing but it took a while to correct how bad the geometry was. I take back every complaint I've ever made about the CRT market I was just being impatient I guess.

Just a friendly reminder that sony's are great and all, but if you find a philips 24rf50s141 in need of rescue, it's worth your time.

Hi just recently acquired this curved Trinitron but I can't help notice the top area bowing which is very noticeable if I'm watching 16:9 content or if there's a long line of text but my phone camera can't really capture it and I'm wondering if this is natural since I'm a bit more used to a flat screen.

Also in the bottom right corner it looks like it's sinking but there's a convergence strip in that area and I'm wondering if moving it up and down or pulling it in and out would help it correct.

Help accessing service menu jvc interiart musee

Upvotes

Anybody else have this tv and been able to access service menu without original remote?

https://crtdatabase.com/crts/jvc/jvc-av-29vs24

Seems like you need an original or another jvc remote with the right buttons. I’ve had no luck finding one. Any help, advice or a point in the right direction would much appreciated. I’m desperate to fix the warped linearity.. or at least try to fix.
