***** That's right. 256(=2^8) is 8 bits for each color, while 16777216(=2^24=256^3) is the total colors that each pixel can have. That's a lot of information for 1920x1080 screen! You need about 50 million of 0's and 1's for each frame, if it was completely uncompressed.

I've found several videos and articles that describe what this video describes, but I'm having trouble finding one that describes how a particular set of RGB voltage levels gets from the chip that is receiving the data stream to a paticular pixel on the screen. For a 1920 x 1600 pixel screen, that's over 3 million pixels! For each pixel, you have 3 LED's with 2 electrodes each that you have to wire up. So that's 3 million * 3 * 2 = 18 million wires! So I can't imagine that it's actually done with wires? How does it work?

I was playing around with a toy microscope and noticed these rgb bars in the pixels and I assumed it either just switches on or off. I thought the brightness would stay uniform through out depending of the brightness setting. I had no idea even at a fixed brightness the brightness of each pixels' rgb would also play. I cannot begin to understand how they are even made. I mean we always assume oh it's machine, but how? these components are so small. It's fascinating how common this technology has become when you realise how much is going on for something so simple.

One thing I don’t get is how you get varying voltage from the binary? Binary is on and off so does each pixel use a digital-to-analogue converter in order to get the different voltages used to vary the brightness or are they just sent through different resistors depending on the binary numbers coming through?…
