  2. Flicker (screen) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_(screen)

    The flicker of a CRT monitor can cause various symptoms in those sensitive to it such as eye strain, headaches [9] in migraine sufferers, and seizures in epileptics. [10]As the flicker is most clearly seen at the edge of our vision there is no obvious risk in using a CRT, but prolonged use can cause a sort of retinal shock where the flickering is seen even when looking away from the monitor.

  3. Flicker fixer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_fixer

    External flicker fixer. A flicker fixer or scan doubler is a piece of computer hardware that de-interlaces an output video signal. The flicker fixer accomplishes this by adjusting the timing of the natively interlaced video signal to suit the needs of a progressive display for example a CRT computer monitor.

    internally, display refreshed at e.g. 480 or 600 fps [25] 60 fps typically. Up to 480 fps. [26] Flicker: Perceptible on lower refresh rates (60 fps and below) [27] Depends; in 2013 most LCDs used PWM to dim the backlight [28] However, since then many flicker free LCD computer monitors were introduced. [29]

  5. Refresh rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refresh_rate

    However, this does not apply to LCD monitors. The closest equivalent to a refresh rate on an LCD monitor is its frame rate, which is often locked at 60 fps. But this is rarely a problem, because the only part of an LCD monitor that could produce CRT-like flicker—its backlight—typically operates at around a minimum of 200 Hz.

    Most modern browsers employ pop-up blockers to keep away the annoying ads or offers that can overwhelm your experience online. While this is often a good thing as it prevents malware and other programs from infecting your computer, it can also cause problems with legitimate sites like AOL Mail.

  7. Frame rate control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_rate_control

    This can create a potentially noticeable 30 Hz (half frame rate) flicker. Temporal dithering tends to be most noticeable in darker tones, while spatial dithering appears to make the individual pixels of the LCD visible. [1] TFT panels available in 2020 often use FRC to display 30-bit deep color or HDR10 with 24-bit color panels.

  8. Interlaced video - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interlaced_video

    These monitors ran at higher scanning frequencies, typically allowing a 75 to 90 Hz field rate (i.e. 37.5 to 45 Hz frame rate), and tended to use longer-persistence phosphors in their CRTs, all of which was intended to alleviate flicker and shimmer problems. Such monitors proved generally unpopular, outside of specialist ultra-high-resolution ...

  9. Screen tearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_tearing

    Screen tearing [1] is a visual artifact in video display where a display device shows information from multiple frames in a single screen draw. [ 2 ] The artifact occurs when the video feed to the device is not synchronized with the display's refresh rate.
