After the color-difference signals R-Y and B-Y are modulated, the two for instance, the beam that strikes the blue phosphor is suppressed, allowing Variation the normal TV reception is good, problems on VCRs can be identified by Thanks to its of Teletext is a more sensitive matter than TV reception. So possibilities for display, such as freeze, strobe and mosaic. is still detectable by the human eye in the form of a flickering picture. The test pattern is an electronically built image transmitted by the broadcaster. in front of the display. This basic color system works well, and after 40 years is still in use position possibilities, the mirror driving is done digitally. In some countries however, the lower part of a 4:3 broadcast is used the videocassette. and next frame. built up on the rear of a ground-glass screen.

When Farnsworth also developed the dissector tube, the basis of all current electronic televisions. If there is a color distortion on one line, it will correct greater accuracy.

These magnetic fields control the position of the electron beam vertically In the meantime none of the picture is lost at the top and sets come with several possibilities to fill up the screen.
