MMMM picture always in sync any speed ...wider than the nipkow holes so on.

It looks like there is a picture behind a spinning Nipkow-disc to "simulate" TV.

yes using a little tv or light box perhaps ...so really showing nothing like how a nipkow really works ...

Actually Baird (or at least his co-workers) used the same technique either to test disks or to take photos. If I get time I will try to dig up a reference.

The give away here is that the picture remains stable even when the disk spins down.

Yes Gary No sync needed at any speed pretty useful why didn't we think of it ?

I have not heard of this Baird test on photos Gary so i am interested if you track it down .

That "site" is just a collection of mostly unrelated videos "scraped" from various video media sites (mainly YouTube).

The videos you link to are part of this forum's AussieBloke projects which he documented extensively both on this forum, YouTube, and his own web site.

What you are seeing there is a stage in testing - something we all go through but rarely make public .

Yes that is TBP app that he is using to monitor the output of the camera.

The main thing is that whilst the camera, at that stage, is probably not functioning as well as Troy would have liked, it is none-the-less *not* "fake" as was the example referred to in the title of this thread.
