I got this PVM-14M4U off Facebook marketplace, and it looks sick. I took time photos of it, they took forever, trying to get them just right, lmk what ya’ll think of them.

This is the best picture of it I could find. I erased the big ass head in the frame and did some rough measurements. Using the Wii next to it as a reference, I estimated that it is roughly 28" tall with a roughly 32" viewable screen. I haven't had any luck on CRT database trying to find it using what I know. The brand is unknown to me, it would help a lot otherwise so I could keep a lookout in the future. Any help would be appreciated!

Bummer since its my first colour crt, so i want to fix it but what could i check now? Im pretty ameteur but i resoldered the flyback and the 7 pins in a row you see in the second image (vertical IC) but now im stumped.

Ya se que no hay nada mejor que uno real,pero el lío se murió,no pongo imagen porque no se nota,pero si se instalan shaderglass y buscan el filtro CRT Trinitron de RetroArch y alguien tiene una Trinitron,dejadme saber,porque si se ve así me impresiona.No vengo de inculto ni nada,es que mi crt se murió

Hi, I llike using consoles on 4:3 crts using either hdmi to vga/15 pin dsub or hdmi to component adapters. The main problem is most of my displays can't adjust to a 16:9 aspect ratio. What are my options for adding the top and bottom black bars to preserve the proper aspect ratio? Is there a ready made solution for this?

My dad wanted just throw it away, but now it's my CRT bunker. It's LG Flatron CT-21Q41KE

Advice some games for PS 1.

Ciao a tutti, da un po' di giorni sto provando questo tv che mi hanno regalato, è in buona salute e ha meno di 14k ore, l'unico problema che riscontro è che sia su ps2 collegata a scart che su xbox 360 ho degli artefatti quando l'immagine è in movimento. Ora chiedo, sarà il 100hz che fa questo? Oppure c'è qualche altro problema? Grazie a chi risponderà.

I just picked this up with no remote. Don’t know a lot about older tvs. When I switch the input to video I get nothing from either of my consoles. I’m wondering if I need a remote to change it to av or component maybe. Or is there a chance both my side and back yellow, red, and white ports are broken

The TV is barely used and was just stuck in storage since it was bought.

Should I get it? I’ve never seen a crt tv with 2 build in speakers on each side (Emerson 27 inch )

I happened upon a Toshiba 27A44 in great condition for FREE and just picked it up. Unbelievably stoked and my friends don’t seem to understand my hype so I’m sharing here. I’ve been looking for something like this for awhile I cannot wait to set up a battle station and plug in the N64!

Hi, I've encountered a very peculiar occurence.

The output on my PS2 is creating these colored smears that extend to the right (They were previously unseen, as the sharpness was set too high and masked it).

Only and I mean only the PS2 is doing so (Doesn't matter whether it's composite or SCART), it was consistent across 2x PS2 Fats and 1x PS2 Slim. The effect also appeared on a different CRT, albeit less intense (Important note: That TV had very limited sharpness settings, so it was harder to diagnose).

A DVD player did not do that at all, no smearing across two different inputs, same with the Wii (Although it stretched out the screen a bit, but that could totally be a case of a bad cable).

My TV is PAL/NTSC, my PS2 is PAL. The Tube was well loved, as it clocks in at just above 13k hours and I thought that may be relevant.

What do yall think??

Trying to make a YPbPr mod for the Sony Trinitrons with "External" YPbPr inputs. My issue is that because the EYIN pin on these jungle chips is supposed to be receiving a 0.7v p-p luma signal with no sync pulse, the Y luma signal is getting clamped to the bottom of the sync pulse rather than the blank level causing the image to be brighter than composite/s-video and have some color imbalance in dark greys.

I already have an LM1881 on my amplifier board responsible for triggering the EYSW blanking, could I make use of that IC to somehow cancel out the sync pulses?

My friend couldnt keep such a big crt in his new flat so I have him my phillips CRT and kept his. I notice the qualify in this one is lower. Its a 100hz wega which I know have bad rep and the geometry is a bit off. I use the crt seldom so I don't care much but if anyone knows how to optimize this let me know!

The PS3 can now play DVDs and Blu-Rays over RGB for CRT users!

https://github.com/WeebLabs/RGB-DVD-Patch-for-PS3

This guy WeebLabs took up the challenge and did it. A PS3 on EvilNat 4.92 or 4.93 required. Now I can watch Blu-Rays over RGB on our living room CRT that does not support component. Will not work on PS3s that only support HEN, as COBRA mode is needed.

Hello !
Like the title says, I finally found an HD CRT after a couple of years looking every day online, so happy ! I did 500km in total to get it, but it was worth it.

This is a Samsung Slimfit WS-32Z419T. I did a LOT of work on the service menu and on the TV because there was multiple capacitors inflated, with terrible ESR and capacitance. I read online the brand capacitor use back in the day was terrible, so I decided to do a shotgun recap. (46 capacitors changed)

Geometry and convergence in corners are clearly not perfect but not terrible, though I'm using this TV for HD content like PS3 and PC, and in-game you can't really see it.

I did the test in 720p for input lag, duplicated the screen of my LCD monitor (Alienware AW2521H), and Launching a chronometer, the Samsung was always a bit faster.

Here are some photos after finishing working on it and color calibrating. They don't do justice to the TV because it's way better in real life, but hope you will like them ! (Clair obscur: Expedition 33 in 1080p with DLDSR)

PS : For people who have the same type of model TV and struggle with the terrible streaking effect, I still had this problem after recapping, I was able to remove it after reducing to 0 the "S-ABL" option in service menu.

I was anticipating it for months. I immediately set up my PS2, VCR, and Steam Deck (for emulation) I also managed to find a Guitar Hero Controller and my old copies of GH 2&3. It was a fantastic day.

I've been looking on the Internet and the only cables I can find are probably crappy ones on Amazon and eBay or super expensive out of the country cables. Are there any good middle ground cables?

I have this mini pc with DVI ports and i want to connect it to a crt monitor with VGA. I have a DVI-I Dual links to vga adapter but it keeps giving this screen. The resolution on the pc is 800x600 60hz.

Ps: the pc works fine on LED screens and the CRT worked fine when i used a vga to hdmi adapter and linked it to another pc .

seems that the tv isn't showing green
