Wow it works! It's amazing how much resolution you can get out of
compressed digital when it doesn't have to cope with movement.
Unfortunately that simple fact makes the test card rather pointless.
Indeed, It was designed to allow the shortcomings of analogue transmission
and CRT displays to be assesed. It's pretty meaningless with digital
tranmissions and flat-panel displays.
And their shorter comings..
Nevertheless, here's a piccy of it on my TV, which is a CRT (I won't buy a
flat panel until this goes bang - I hate the plastic-y skin tones).
I've been saying that for years, my set is 25 years-old and still going
strong. It'll probably outlive me at this rate.
Same here with our old B&O
