Oldest surviving color tape of entertainment show

[old_tv_nut]

Can't believe I'm seeing the interlace/progressive, analog/digital, original film vs. what's on your screen religious wars being rehashed. Both of you have correct and incorrect points.

The original digital TV tests showed plainly (but note, with tube pickup cameras and CRT displays) that 1080I had more visual resolution for still scenes (with the vertical resolution toned down to reduce twitter), while 720P was better for sports with high motion. You cannot say definitively one is always better than the other. The comparison is further affected by the introduction of solid state camera sensors (no smear) and different display technologies. But it never comes down to strictly "old good, new bad" or vice versa. It's a question of the whole system from glass to glass.

@Arc Tech 109, DV Tyro obviously meant 2:1 interlace, come off it!
