Making smaller pixels costs more money

I'd like to know too. Why is 1200p such a rare sight?

>>24225416
Jews

capitalism

People buying shitty 1080p monitors is what is stopping manufacturers from making 1440p-1600p+ monitors.

>>24225427
So let the pixels be the same size.

The process of creating raw panels limits production of larger panels. They have a lower yield than smaller panels.

>>24225427
>>24225448

no. it's the failure rates

>>24225445
How come you no like FULL HD 1080P?

>>24225416
Could you cite a specific comparison? Higher density panels are certainly more expensive, but I think multiple low-end monitors are still generally more expensive than one mid-range monitor.

Greater chance of a defect with larger panels?

What's the point of a 27" monitor if it is limited to 1080p?

>>24225462
Cause I like fuller HD 1200P more.

>>24225444

this is the correct answer. It is very doable at a very similar cost, but theya re not quite finished milking the ignorant 1080p market.

2013 christmas you will see a crazy expensive 4k panel in best buy.

the transition is coming

>>24225482
>mfw i'll be buying a 1920x1200 monitor at the end of this semester
>mfw right now all i have is a 1366x768

Because normalfags will pay more for higher resolutions keeping the prices high.

>My monitor as OP pic

OP saved first google result for monitor.

Sort of on topic any cheap IPS options other than viewsonic and AOC?

>>24225493
4k panels where nobody can notice the difference, there aren't any channels that broadcast in 4k, and hardly any devices support it.

>>24225638

they said the same thing about 1080p

ps4 rumor to support. youtube pushes 4k, give it 2-3 years, it will be the next big thing that middle aged white men will yack about.

>>24225686
except 1080p actually makes sense. 4k is pointless because unless you have a nice 30'+ screen, a room that size, and the distance away from the screen, you'll never notice the difference. Hell, even most digital theaters use 2k projectors and that's good on their 35'+ screens.

Gee I dunno OP. How come 10 Honda Civics are cheaper than 1 Ferrari? When you add up the HP and torque, 10 Honda Civics should be faster than 1 Ferrari.

>>24225638
>broadcast
>2012
>watching TV

Also 2012 Olympics will have 4k broadcasts

>>24225724

im not arguing that at all...but it will still happen...
though they did have a 60" 4k panel at ces this year and it was wild looking.

>>24225749
mm 4k womens gymnastycs

It has already been purposed that they'll make 4k bluray in 2013

4k is what they'll push next after 3D fails

>>24225481
Because if a fucking 60" TV looks great in 1080p, why would I want a tiny little 27" monitor in 1440p or whatever tiny, eye-squinty pixel density you would rather have?

It makes sense for movies but not for my PC where I have to actually do work.

HDMI 1.4 specifically designed for 4k

>>24225768
would love to see the capacity of those fucking discs. going to need a lot more than 50GB.

I've said it before and I'll continue to say it, they need to focus on making a storage format that's cheap and large enough to support lossless video in 1080p and forget about going to another higher resolution.

>>24225828
>lossless video
so is this real life in 2D?

>mon visage quand i've been using a 2560x1600 monitor for 2 years

>>24225801
i do as i like watching full hd movies while i'm out on my boat.

>>24225828
There's no such thing as lossless 1080p for movies because the source material is always larger than that for the theater

>>24225893
do you have your swim trunks and your flippy floppys?

>>24225893

take the raw scan, resize, and encode using a lossless codec. congratulations, you have lossless HD movies.

>>24225920
of course. regular shoes are somewhat impractical on deck.

stretched 1080p looks like shit.

>>24225964
>lossless codec

Oh so you mean something they use in post that's bloated and worthless to the consumer? 4k in HEVC makes 100x more sense then what you're saying.

>>24225964
False. Resizing to a lower resolution is not a bijective transformation under integer pixel coordinates.

I'm just waiting for lossless video recording.

>>24226008
>Stretched
I'm just asking what you mean by that.

>>24226041
im guessing when it goes out of aspect?

>>24225828
>they need to focus on making a storage format

We have a storage format: it's called HDD. We're never going to get anywhere with this optical bullshit, and it's disappointing that Blu-ray is actually catching on. Digital download is the way of the future.

We need to scrap optical media and focus on bringing up the standard for Internet connection. The US should not be lagging behind South Korea. Then digital downloading can be used for 4K or whatever arbitrary resolution.

Heat.
I'm not 100% sure, but I have two Hanns G's and my first one spewed out heat like a i7 980x (not that I've been fortunate enough to have that kind of CPU).

The second one doesn't vent out heat as badly and is brighter, but the screen still gets sufficiently warm and I rub my hand across it every now and again to cool it off out of worry.

The other possibility is that companies haven't wanted to do it for financial reasons.

>>24226032
film?

>>24226014
so you have a 30'+ screen, room to put that screen in, and the distance away to sit? no? then 4k won't look any better than 1080p.

lossless would be a huge step as it would clear up all the shit that lossy compression creates. even with 4k video there would still be the same problems due to lossy compression.

>>24225946
But what will you climb?

is it? $320 isnt that expensive to me

>>24226095
>Windows 8

Because 2560x1440/1600 is still new tech, and it has no mainstream consumer appeal yet. Game consoles don't support it at all, HDTV doesn't support it, blu-rays don't support it...essentially everything you watch on it will look like shit. The only use it has is for PC gaming and people who need all the screen real estate they can get, both of which are relatively small markets. As a result, the price remains sky high.

>>24226069
so you want me to pay MORE for 1080p video that has been overly compressed and doesn't come with the extras and nice packaging? oh wait, you expect people to download 50GB movies when a large part of the world still can't download faster than 1MB/s? yep, people really want to wait 20+ HOURS just to watch a movie.

>>24226117

>>24226138

it was just what i thought would be a relate-able example. doesn't have to be literally best buy.

Im so glad they are closing...i run two tech retail/service stores, the best buy thats 9 blacks away is closing....im so excited.

>>24226138
Br rips arent anywhere near 50gb retard
also some cities are starting to get 1gbps connection speeds. dont hamper advancements in quality because some guy in nebraska has niggernet

>>24226161
Basically, yes. They're pulling the most profit from cellphone "mini-stores" and not half as much from their larger locations.

They tried to word it as nicely ass possible, but no one believes that B.S.

I'm thinking their stock symbol might get wiped out in the next two years.

>>24226199
again, you want me to pay MORE for less quality, no extras, and no nice packaging? Yeah, that makes perfect sense. If I wanted to watch a shitty transcode, I just download one for free.

>>24226091
Do you not understand how the distance of your eyes relative to the TV screen work? You don't need a theater size screen to see the benefits of 4k

4k would also eliminate any current issues with artifacts seen at 1080p

>>24226240
agreed. text for example looks a shit load better on my 1440p monitor over my 1080p monitor.

>>24226168
It's pretty much their fault for over-charging for poor service. I remember way back when I was a kid and I specifically told them I didn't want them to wipe my disc, just clean it of viruses.

They wiped it and handed me a disc with NOTHING I cared about. All my save games... Gone. They charged $100 for something I could have done 100 times better! So yeah, karma. I'm not at all surprised. Circuit City had the same fate for the same reasons.

>>24226161
You haven't heard? Best Buy is hemorrhaging money right now.

I mean, think about it, which would you rather do: Go to best buy, buy a $2000 fuckhuge TV, pay even more money due to sales tax, and pay even more money for delivery (unless you've got a vehicle big enough to haul a 60" TV back home) OR sit down naked at your computer at 2 am with a beer and buy it off Amazon prime with free two day shipping and no sales tax?

Ah, you're talking about Blue Ray. Sorry, thought you were talking about 4k TV's.

>>24226122
Good. Hopefully a new challenger will appear with prices that are actually good or maybe frys will expand to the east coast since I hear they have decent prices.

>>24226348
too bad they need 80hz or they flicker like a mother fucker.

>>24226348

Yea, FW900 is the best. I have one and it is great, the image is good even though the monitor is almost 12 years old. I use it at 1920x1200@85Hz though.
Before that I used a Dell P1130 (21" 4:3), it also is good - 2048x1538@80Hz.

>>24226348
Enjoy your cancer.
Enjoy your electrical bill.
Enjoy your flicker.

There is a limit to the actual eye resolution. In fact, the center of the eye, where you focus your vision is hardly 2megapixel equivalent. There is no point in anything beyond 2k in any circunstace. 4k is usefull for the videographers when downsampling, panning, etc, but not for actual user experience, but they want a way to bump the Marketing and forcing new development of new technology. That is how the capitalism works.

Howeve, i've workd with a 27" inch 2560x1440 monitor in a new Imac in the video producer i work on, and in fact the extra resolution Area for working is quite usefull, but i can hardly imagine a pratical computer display in size to put on a desk with anything beyond 1600p. IMHO The market should stop at 1600p, (4mp) 12mpx is tottaly overkill (4k).

A curiosity about view distance: I use a 42" Flat screen as screen monitor and only stay away from it about 1.5 meters. i found it very confortable at this distance. However, the 27inch apple display gets to small to red text beyond just 1 meter away.

30" 2560x1600 is the ideal maximum resolution for work, and fitting 2x 30" screens on a desk is not exactly easy.

Price fixing.

27" IPS panels from korea are $350 while monitors using the same LG panels are $1,000+ here, and nobody tries to bring them to common market.

Meanwhile, the iPad 3 gets to have its ridiculously dense IPS screen (which is checked for even a single dead pixel afaik) for $600. Bear in mind the iPad 3 also has solid state storage, its battery, its Apple Premium Pricetag(tm), and all of its processing internals. By American monitor price standards just the screen from an iPad 3 should cost upwards of $5,000.

Price fixing.

why do people buy 16:9 shit when movies are filmed in 2.39:1 ?
in fact why is 2.39:1 not a full round industry standard for movies, tv and images ?

Can we devolve this thread into 16:9 vs. 8:5 debate already?

>>24227277
I got I.Q. tested as a kid multiple times because my parents were pricks that wanted to find a problem I didn't have.

Now that I know the number, I still don't use it, "to defend myself". I think it's an artificial number that has very little bearing on reality. Those who brag about their are poised to fail. I do best when I think I'm inadequate. I revel in my "inferiority complex" because it drives me to do better and better.

>>24227404
Some people have replaced the parts in them. They used to come with PCBs that could handle 120Hz. but newer models don't.
OCN fags are trying to work out a deal to get ones with better parts, guaranteed 100Hz, maybe a thinner bezel. There are already over 500 users backing it.

>>24227367
Refresh rates don't work the same way on LCDs like they do on CRTs. You are still dealing with a SAH-based technology. Liquid crystals set in a silicon film cannot physically achieve the same level of image image response as tubes of phosphor gas excited by an electron gun.

I hope that LG can actually deliver OLED in the fall, since it is a current-driven technology instead of voltage-driven like LCDs it affords intrinsic control over the duty cycle of the screen so it can match the scanning motion performance of CRTs if the manufacturer so wishes (at the expense of a shortened panel lifespan). Also Kaz Hirai who's now CEO of Sony says he'll personally oversee the revival of their TV unit and focus on OLED and CLED development.

Not to mention I'm still waiting to see what AU Optronics does with all of the equipment and IP related to FED that they've bought from Sony a few years ago.

>>24227423
My new desk is big enough for one, my old desk had one on it for years but the top became bowed downward because of all that weight. I really don't want another CRT because it's aesthetically displeasing, a pain to move if needed, and might bow the new desk although it's thicker than the old one it's not worth the risk.

>they said the same thing about 1080p
they were right. 90% of HDTV broadcasts in 720p. and for 90% of shows/movies that's good enough.

i wish people would drop this high-res crazy and focus on actually improving/inventing display technologies rather than getting higher pixel density on the shitty ones.

>>24227577
It's about a bigger number. An acronym like OLED is too abstract for your average tard with too much money.

>>24227577
high pixel density is most important on smaller displays, not larger. shut up about tv broadcasts.

>>24227577
"Good enough".
This is about what's visible to the naked eye. The difference between 720p and 1080p is very visible.

>I wouldn't want to blindly buy a TV

You don't retard. You look at reviews, pictures, and comparisons from people that actually know a thing or two about AV quality and not some idiot salesman at Bestbuy that just recites the bullshit on a brochure they gave him 20 mins ago.

I trade stocks, fuck-face. No one can predict the future. Especially not some neckbeard aspie that brags about his I.Q. and sounds like some edgy and dark school kid.

Warren Buffet put 5 Billion into Bank of America. You think he thinks the world is coming to an end?

And your benefits... Are you fucking serious? Not only are 401k's a goddamn joke, but you think that will matter in an "lolol 2012 2012" scenario?

You're a fucking idiot. I instantly knew it the minute you spouted off that stupid, "hurr durr, I'm 138 I.Q." bullshit.

And if the economy crashes, it'll come back. It's been doing that for 10k+ years now.

It enhances the color range.
If you have complete control over the lighting in your environment go for it.

As far as home theaters go if I had the money, barring the 8K$ 55" OLED TV LG is releasing, I'd buy one of those JVC projectors and a 120" screen along with some black-out shades or may be one of those Panasonic Plasmas.

Then hook it up to a DAC/AMP + Sennheiser HD800s so I don't have to deal with crap like speaker placement or room acoustic treatments.

>The difference between 720p and 1080p is very visible
point is (to me) it's not as visible as the difference between two display technologies like TN vs IPS or CRT. i would rather be stuck with 720p on an amazing display tech than 4000p on a shitty LED TN with light bleed, color grading, and grey blacks.

>>24227765
Your argument is so bad I don't know where to start, so I won't.

>>24227649
i would buy a display or audio gear without personally experiencing it as long as the review/reputation was good enough

>>24227676
glossy is better, yes. grainy matte coatings are shit tier.

>your face when you realize the vast majority of digital theaters use 2k projectors
>your face when the vast majority of movies not shot on film are shot on 2k cameras
Enjoy your 4k upscale on screens you can't possibly tell the difference on.

>>24227765
Damn! You are me!

Like i have already said here:

>>24226703

This new 4k hype is all for the companies keep the market wheel and investor running, all for the profit

Stupid capitalism.

>>24227943
It's not all fluff. 4k has tangible benefits in theaters sporting large enough screens.
2k as a film replacement is inferior.
4k as a film replacement is worthy debate from a scientific or religious perspective.

Jokes on you, I only go to see native-IMAX films.

With as much money as Hollywood throws at the production of their films you'd think they could afford to transition over completely to IMAX film stock. Seriously, how much more would it cost compared to the several hundred millions they spend every year on crap-teir CGI effects?

Give me an action/horro movie with loads of actual pyrotechnics, Jackie Chan-esqe stunts, animatronics, and other practical effects shot totally on IMAX.

>>24227908
Vast majority are still shot on film which is more than 2k

And really the theater isn't the greatest benchmark for standards on VQ. Most of the chains outright suck. I've seen home theaters beat the living shit out of them in terms of VQ. Sound is another story though.
