Resolution in games, movies, and photos - what is it? What does it do? Those are questions that I'd love to.... resolve... for you!

ali abdallah Diction is important here. The first part, "Just a number", is explicitly exclusive meaning it (resolution) can only be interpreted as a number, while the second part "It's a number" does not necessarily imply that it can only be a number but that it may also be interpreted as other things as well. So to be more accurate, no it does not hold the same meaning.

-You're once again one of these stupid fucks who can't understand what they read.- -So: We can see past 24 FPS. We can see, how much fluid movement can be with more FPS on Screen. There must be a limit somewhere, but its not really measured by FPS, biologically speaking.- -The special thing about 24 FPS is, that from there we see movements STARTING TO BE FLUID instead of having a diashow of pictures, when you go below 24 FPS. And it's only being used for filmmaking too.- -Also: There is a huge difference between filmmaking and games (With filmmaking, through the motion blur we see 24FPS being fluid, it has to do with the actual technic from cameras. While motion blur for games is just a cheap effect that does provide as good as nothing). Linus explained it here very well. Check out the TechQuickie channel, it's one of his newest videos "refresh rates explained".- -So you can turn from being a stupid fuck to somewhat more intelligent human.- -PEACE!- *I just... fell into your trap.

2k resolution is more of a film production term. It comes from scanning 35mm film, which yields a resolution of 2048x1556. This image is then either cropped or compressed down to a widescreen 16x9 or wider format for broadcast. In broadcast the standard is 16x9: 1080p or 720p.

720p on consoles always seem to have a blur built in to make the jaggies go away. 1080p is much better if you want to avoid jaggies and not blur the image.
@willhendrix86
@willhendrix86 10 жыл бұрын
That blur is the result of a highly optimised low sample rate anti-alising filter. Possibly the equivilent of 2x MSAA/AMAA (Adaptive). Its still there at 1080p but you have literally increased the pixel sample density by a third so it looks much more seemless.

Resolutions aren't confined by the weakest link. If all the components don't match exactly, you get less than the weakest link. Projecting a 720p image onto a 1080p monitor is _worse_ than projecting an 720p image on a 720p monitor.

But then one day, a mentor who offered me a similar chance to the one I'm offering you today said to me... "Barry... Isn't that the reason you're here? To make a change in your life so that you CAN afford to do what you want to do?" - and in that moment, I knew I had to remain focus and make this work. So I did and today I finally have a dedicated style of trading, which has earned me so much profits I never would've imagined of. So I say to you... Isn't this the reason you're here? To make some REAL money? Well, you need a very small investment to make that change in your life.

+Assasinpiggles You shouldn't underestimate the movie producers. They have a higher budget than you can ever acquire in life. They can record 4k or even 8k if they wanted to, but there is no reason for that because the world still does not fully support such high resolution, so they stick to the standard worldwide 1080p for convenience. They record the movies at 60fps or even higher btw, its available on blu-ray, they just limit it at 30fps to give the movie a cinematic feel.

Talking about resolution and yet the video is only 720p :P I have also seen a video with 1440p option available. But I don't know if that's still available. Did KZfaq kill 1080p? Anyway, for normal browsing, working or reading on the computer, higher resolution is really better, but on games, I've compared 768p and 1080p on my FHD laptop screen, and makes a little difference, and will make little difference on a TV as well. That said, I'd rather have 720p @60fps than 1080p @ 30fps. That's why we need graphics options on consoles! People are not dumb to switch it!

Why don't you tell to your subscribers the display size standards for each resolution?! You know that BIG resolutions are just marketing,right?! Where the real standard is that 1080p is only for displays bigger than 50" I don't need 1080p on my 19" display. The qualitty of my 19" display at 1440x900 (native) is the same qualitty seen on your 24" - 27" 1080p (native) display. But in the last 7 years "they" "changed" that rule so "they" can sell more stuff. 1080p on a mobile phone display..give me a break.

This is the modern age mate, things and times are changing. 1080p looks terrible on a 50" tv when you are close like super bad but from a good distance looks fine. Right now im using my 32" TV for a monitor for my pc and its native res is 1360 x 768, low reso but looks pretty good at the distance i am away from it and all games look and run sharp. You wouldnt want resolutions just not to get better would you? Big resolutions arent just marketing it has been used in photography for years even before 1080 and 4k resolutions were a reasonable priced option, For example a 8Mp camera commonly found on phones is double the resolution of 1080, and a 14 mp camera found on some photos are more than 4k. 1080p is the current standard for most things these days be it monitors, tvs, and even phones to an extent. The next viable standard within a few years will be 4k as the prices drop and hardware available to run 4k displays are cheaper. I dont know what i was trying to achieve when i made this comment, just remember we live in a ever evolving time were technology is growing by the day lol. Sorry for rambling on XD

That's a heap of bullshit in my opinion. How often do you turn on different AA settings in games because edges of objects with high contrast really are jagged. He explained this in the AA as fast as possible video. Also, you clearly didn't hear what he said about display size (DISTANCE matters a lot) a 1080p screen on a phone (5") is not overkill, since you are looking at it very closely. Such a high pixel density eliminated the need for any anti-aliasing to be done to make edges look smooth, since you cant perceive any pixels. On a 50" display you are sitting much farther away (normally) so 1080p would still fit well there. On a 24-30" screen you sit a little closer than a TV, so you need the extra density (and honestly, 1080p on a 24-30 inch is just nowhere near enough for a truly satisfying experience, so AA is still used at those resolutions). Upping the resolutions has never been about selling more stuff, it's been about increasing the usability of the display. Even when 8k rolls around, there would still be tangible benefits to using that over 4k.

are you blind or do you need glasses or are you wearing glasses? if you want 1080P on a 19" monitor you can have it cause they make them. And yes, for us normal people with good eye site and as for me I can defiantly see the difference from a crappy res to a good one. Yeah 1080P is a bit ridiculous on a smart phone but for any monitor over 17" should be at least 1080P or 1080 144HZ.

Eric Marcus I would argue that 1080p is fine for a 5" smartphone. I have tried everything from 1080p, 720p, 480p and below, and i must say, every step up does make a tangible difference. You plain and simply don't get the same smoothness of edges (especially text) on a 720p phone as you do on a 1080p phone. I might argue that 1440p on a phone might be ridiculous, but i haven't tried it, so i wouldn't know

When it comes to TV across the room, if you need glasses, 1080p is probably the max you need to go. My problem is when size is quoted without resolution - for so long there were 12" through to 15" screens that were all 1024*768 (Why waste my money on the larger screen that doesn't have any more pixels?). I'm on a real 2k monitor right now, using a native font way small. The digit "1" is 7 pixels high and 3 pixels wide. I use this micro-font because I need maximum screen estate to show as much information as possible (and that's across 6 monitors! If you need glasses for upclose, don't bother trying to use my computer.

Well, for myself and my CRT, resolution is a function of 3 numbers - Pixel Clock, HSync, and VSync. My only restrictions are that HSync must be lower than 95khz, and VSync must be between 50-120hz. Within that span, my monitor can display ANY resolution I could possibly want(though in practice my GPU cannot produce some of the more insane resolutions, and the monitor would flicker like a dying flourescent lamp at particularly insane resolutions above 2048*1536), and produce them all with the same clarity.
