I have had plenty of LGs here in Brazil, the latest is very similar to that model, though it's of the "FLATRON" line. It is very deep, and has a very similar chassis to that one, with the little housing for the neck board and all. The flat screen is excellent for 480i content, either via composite or component, but I don't like how it displays 240p, since it has a somewhat low line count, the image is kinda "grainy" looking. One thing to notice, it's very easy to go into LGs service menu with any remote: just press menu on both the remote and the set at the exact same time for 5 seconds or so, and it should pop up.
I have an model like this one mines a 29fs2alx-tg. All my retro games have black bars like yours is that just pal tvs that do that. The geometry isn’t the worst on mine but there’s a bow on the right side. Quality through component is surprisingly good. Lg to me is cheap but has actually good quality tubes. Keep up the awesome videos mate.
Only lg crt I have ever come across was a lafinion specified as 100hz it did 480i, 480P an 1080i. Though it was forced to widescreen though component, composite you could change aspect ratio. I hated the tv and gave it away I hope the person who got it from me found it less frustrating. It had some insane speakers and is the heaviest crt I have ever lifted.
I know what you mean. Probably the same one i had too. Cosmetically the tv looks flash, smooth with its shiny black finish on the outside. was not a keeper at all from memory though. I take you are in Australia? LG very common here.
@@rgbrob New Zealand, 100% looked super flash it would have cost a pretty penny back in the day, it’s been the only lg crt that I have seen advertised anywhere in a year and a bit.
I’ve got a 51cm LG with component in my collection, it’s a Flatron not the super slim model....very nice TV prob has the best picture out of all my consumer sets....480i content looks really nice on it compared to the older TVs
@@rgbrobupdate from a year ago someone was selling this super slim model locally so I picked it up…did the width adjustment with the pot inside makes it so much better, was a bit of a pain getting the back off though, the way the PCB slots in the rear shell
After seeing this TV on facebook I looked it up and saw this video. You're an absolute weapon for doing this mate.

Thanks for the service menu tip. The flatron line is available here in Australia too, I will look out for those.

Hey Rob a KVH32 popped up on marketplace,dunno if you want another one
Why didn't u adjust the horizontal pot?
Looks ok I guess, nothing to write home about 😅. Does it have some tilt function in the service menu? Right side has an annoying bow 😑
Not much contrast,quite washed out
Rob have been lifting?
