My program makes then a .wav file of a length of 2 seconds, which you can copy to any length. As you might have read this wav file can be played also in black and white.
The earliest trick like that was I think the testcard with the clock.
I am surprised how good this picture looks in the 30 line (3.0 daN) lateral scan format. This is remarkable for a 1200 pixel image.DrZarkov wrote:I've found a picture of the first german TV test movie, a 10 minute silent movie calles "Wochenende" (weekend) with Imogen Orkutt and Schura von Finkelstein. They are singing (in a silent movie!?) "Horch, was kommt von draußen rein". This film had been used from 1929 to around 1934.
Actually, I was just "fooling around", referring to my proposal for a new standard unit of measure for television scanning lines, the nipkow (or possibly baird). See the thread at http://www.taswegian.com/NBTV/forum/vie ... 1&start=15 . 30 lines would be 3.0 decanipkow (daN).AncientBrit wrote:Stephen,
Is a 3.0 DAN equivalent to a Black Belt??!

And she said that a moving picture would make a better testcard. She made one example with Photoshop as a gif-anim. I was not able to transfer it into anything which "AVI to NBTV" will convert until now, maybe somebody knows a program for that. Most video converting programs have a big problem with a video of only 32 x 48 pixels...
