Blog Moving

I realized that I probably don't want my blog in the root of my website. So, I'm moving it to http://blog.benmcmurry.com. Please update your feed readers as such. I am going to try to make a symbolic link to the feed, but that might not work.
Thanks!

A move from Wordpress to Blogger

I really like wordpress. It's functional and aesthetically pleasing. It's easy to use, open-source, and customizable. But, there are some things that I don't really like that much. I don't like the constant updating of the software. It seemed like every time that I logged in it was time for an update. I also didn't like the commenting system. So, I decided to move to blogger. There shouldn't be any hiccups, but it will take me a few days to get the layout like I want. So, thanks for your patience.

Some days are not fun, but for the most part I enjoy what I am doing.

60hz, 120hz, 240hz, ????

Two posts in one day? That's strange. In my effort to learn more about video, I explored some new features of current TVs. You might have seen that new TVs have crazy looking labels that say "120hz" or "240hz." What's that all about? Well, I don't want to get to technical here, but here is a little background information. Broadcast signals are typically 30 frames per second. That's 30 different images that you see on your screen per second. Well, actually it's 60 half images. Our brains can fill in information. TVs typically operate at 60hz. The hertz used to refer to energy passed through something in the tv, but now with LCD tvs they really refer to frames per second (fps). So, TVs work could for broadcast. Film, however, is usually 24 fps. In order to fill up the available 60hz, complicated math has to happen. 24 is not a multiple of 60, so a 3:2 pulldown happens. Some new frames are inserted . . . blah, blah, blah. So, you'll find t...
