-- Posted by wbafan2 at 3:58 am on Dec. 29, 2008 Ok so i have a 50 hz tv but io put the xbox on 60 hz does this mean that every game that supports 60 hz will have 2 black bars one at the top and one at the bottom? -- Posted by blufindr at 3:59 am on Dec. 29, 2008 LOLOLOLOL. The black bars are resolution, not flicker rate. -- Posted by wbafan2 at 3:59 am on Dec. 29, 2008 Quote: from blufindr at 11:59 am on Dec. 29, 2008 LOLOLOLOL.

Not really an answer Is if you understood the difference. 50Hz is like frame rate. The picture changes 50 times per second. 60 Hz = 60 times per second. The black bars are there because of resolution. Like, 4:3, 16:9, stuff like that. I don't think the word really is resolution but I can't remember what it is for a TV. -- Posted by La Motta at 4:04 am on Dec. 29, 2008 That didn't happen to me! :0)
