What is the definition of scanlines? Is there a standard? I was told that standard broadcast television has a defined number of lines top to bottom but side to side wasn't actually defined. It is set by film, broadcast and receiver quality and that's why some things are crisp and others are fuzzy. I know computer monitors have a set resolution but I am wondering about TV. What is the broadcast standard, and what is it for HDTV? Robert
