My mom has an AEG dryer that run for hours every week since the mid 70's. The only thing that has to be replaced once was the main belt. She renew it few years ago because newer models are less energy hungry but it was still working fine.
My dad started out as a repair tech for Wards back in the 40’s. He could fix anything. He eventually ran their nationwide service division, but would still refuse to buy a new fridge, washer, dryer, or TV… he would just bring home broken appliances that customers did not want to pay the repair costs on and fix them. Our first color TV, in 1971, was an ancient RCA that still had a picture tube that was mostly round. My Dad kept replacing tubes and fixing that thing to keep it going so he could watch football in color. Then, one day the picture tube died and I watch as my dad hand Rewound the coils around the tube neck to get it working again. The second time the picture tube died, he finally threw in the towel and bought a new color TV. Even though he was a nationwide executive by that time, I think it was the first major appliance he ever actually paid for, new.

I grew up basically ghetto poor, I remember my older sibling finding a VCR in the trash and he took it back to my dads, this would of been the chunky old ones that weighed probably as much as a modern tv if not more and my dad spent spent hours just taking the circuit boards out and testing components and cleaning it, think he paid a small amount of cash for some replacement capacitors or whatever from Radio Shack and we had a working VCR, this war around 1990, the tv he was given by a friend as it was faulty and he fixed it again cheaply. Finding things in the trash or being given broken devices was how I owned everything I did until my teen years, from a games console, even toys sometimes.
As an old git i remember growing up with TVs like this ( and older). This was a common problem, we had a local TV repair shop that would fix our TVs if this happened or if the SCART socket became loose , even after he "retired" and sold his shop he would still help out his longest running customers for a bit of extra cash when he retied. I guess he must be long gone by now, kind of sad.
Growing up back in the day my dad would take the tubes from the console TV down to the drug store to test them on the tube testing vending machine, and if he couldn't figure out how to fix the TV that way we'd pay for a TV repairman to come over the house and fix the TV, bringing his tool kit into the living room. Those big console TVs are too heavy to just casually put in the car and drive to a shop.
My dad used to be a TV repair engineer, he was doing stuff like this in the 90s when people wanted more inputs/outputs and even then (here in the UK) we had SCART, so we were getting the best pic possible on CRT TVs/monitors. He passed away 2 years ago.
I wonder why Scart never took off on the USA, it basically was SVHS/RGB but many years earlier, I was actually pretty shocked how bad the picture quality was when I first came to the US, given I was exposed to scart many years earlier and thought it to be a worldwide standard and then I ran into a composite/NTSC combination and my view on the world was crushed...
I think you can also make this TV work on 50 Hz, on IC 901 (SZM-284EV) on pin 7 there's a 50/60 Hz mode, your TV has that pulled to ground, I believe if you pull it high it will switch to 50 Hz mode. So it should work with your BBC micro on RGB 50 Hz. You can install a toggle switch to set the sync between 50 and 60 Hz
This is one of those little channels where whenever a new video comes out, I watch it ASAP and while the intro is rolling, I already hit the thumbs up button because I know it's going to be good, I don't have to watch it first to know. And as always, I was not disappointed.
That TV has been through so much and the memories we have from it in this channel are so precious! I’m happy it gets to live another day and also I love that it keeps being upgraded! It’s just getting better and better!
I had the same model TV. My parents bought it for me when I broke my hip and was stuck in a wheelchair and body cast. It was my constant companion. After MANY years of use it did the same thing as yours. I'd have to bang on the side of it to make it work. Thanks for the awesome vid!
I’m glad you’re able to fix that Samsung CRT TV, because no company makes these type of TVs anymore! My last CRT I owned was a Samsung HD CRT, it was a great from rhythm games like Dance Dance Revolution, but I got rid of it and sold it on Craigslist that had a pickup truck.
Yeah, it's much more likely these days to get a new laser-projector based TV than a CRT one, since the laser option can be aimed with achievable hardware instead of large vacuum tubes.
8-bit guy. Thanks for getting back to what you used to do. these were the videos I used to love to watch and that's the reason I found your channel cuz I found you modding old stuff is so fascinating
David, i started watching you when i was about 7 years old when you were the ibook guy,i was fascinated by everything you did, now i own a small computer repair business, thank you for sparking my computer interest!
Funny coincidence that you'd upload this now, I just bought my first CRT television and I'm totally in love with it. Great video, and for what it's worth I would enjoy seeing more CRT repairs on this channel, be they televisions or monitors. Cheers from Dallas, TX
Mate, I've been a very long subscriber and till to this day, it just eases up my mind watching your videos, listening to your voice, your camera work, video editing but the best of all, it's content and how you get us entertained!!! I love your intro (never change it) and love how its perfectly written. Again, that was a very fun video and please, keep those videos coming even tho I know how hard it is to come up with something. Also, still have the exact same TV but with VHS player/recorder. My father bought it for me when I was a kid, still working to this day.
I've been collecting CRT TVs to play my Atari and NES on as well as VHS thank you 8-bit guy for making these videos to give us information cuz I really like your videos and how informative they are
This guy never disappoints. I’ve been watching this guy’s videos since I was a kid and they still never disappoint to teach me about stuff that I never knew I’d be interested in.

My 27” Samsung that appears to be a very similar model developed the same issue, on the front-mounted composite input. I haven’t gotten around to fixing it yet, just wedged something in to tweak the connection a bit to make contact. I should fix it this weekend, thanks for the inspiration!
Glad you were able to fix it! I'm also very happy you showed the composite vs. s-video vs. RGB comparison. I've always been curious what you can expect from s-video when rapidly changing luma while keeping chroma the same, and your comparison answers exactly that question. Thanks!
You tapping all that TV in the beginning of the video was shockingly realistic acoustically, I'm running on cheap earbuds and I genuinely thought that was in my room and I am scared s*** less lmao
Excellent episode! Needless to say, all of my 8-bit adventures back in the day were via a conventional CRT TV (Panasonic in my case), so it was cool to see some CRT love. Best regards from Missouri!
it's always nice to see others getting into the RGB side of retro hardware. although this is a new take I didn't know was even possible till your first video on the subject. I know you don't speak as an authority on the subject but your videos do serve as an inspiration for others to get into the hobby.
I bought this kind of little Samsung tv as my first tv when I went on living on myself in a student dorm. I have no idea what happened to it, but it never failed.
Just picked up a very similar model, inexpensively from Facebook Market Place. It is a quality TV, & has survived the test of time. I may attempt this mod as well. Thanks for demonstrating its value & functionality.
Honestly, I really want to get one of those little Samsung TVs, because when I moved out of state, the way I had to move I ended up having to leave behind my beloved little Orion TV that my mom and I bought ages ago back in 2000 when we started playing video games together in my room. That TV is so amazing, and I really miss it. Hopefully, I'll be able to go back and pick it up one day and play my classic consoles on it again. Obviously, with it being 24 years old, there will come a point where I'll have to learn how to solder so I can replace resistors, capacitors and so on to keep it working well in the future. I would also love to do some mods to it to be able to add component and S-Video upgrades as well. Seriously, for a $99 Walmart sold TV from a brand I'd never heard of in 2000, this little TV is an absolute trooper.
I wish I'd had the foresight to keep the plethora of CRT TVs I've had over the years. And all the C64 stuff I had back in the day. And the Franklin Ace 1200 I had. And my record collection. Anyone got a time machine I can borrow? 😂 Seriously, tho -- good repair video. Well done. 🙂
I feel the same way. I had a bunch of computer games from the 90s I got rid of and ended up buying a lot of them again a few years later, except I had to pay way more than I sold them for. Felt real stupid.
If you want a nice CRT, they're easy to find on Craigslist for cheap or free. I wanted a CRT for retro gaming and found someone giving away a nice 27" Sony Trinitron from the late 90's and all it cost was the time to drive down and pick it up
My mother's CRT from 98 or 99 is still operational, i inherited it when she felt it was time for a flat panel, i keep this thing running nearly 24/7, never been serviced or cleaned. Sony made some solid stuff back in the day for sure.
Great video and awesome work. A little correction on the N64 supporting RGB 9:31. It weirdly doesn’t out of box. Even though the SNES and GameCube do. You need a RGB mod chip installed in the N64. It’s cheap, like $30, and very easy to do. A great first time mod for someone just starting out soldering. If you’re interested, it would make a great future project/video. 👍
![How the Apple ][ Works!](/img/n.gif)
Everybody gangsta until David starts adding VGA, DVI, DisplayPort and HDMI support on that TV.
He just starts chrome-casting games to it.
VGA and DVI-A are already technically supported with a proper adapter since it's just RGB again

Most CRT's are pretty reliable like that. Theres not backlight or anything to go out eather
Plenty of CRTs work fine for decades
And I bet it wouldn't have happened had that RCA connector not been plugged and unplugged what I assume was way more than what'd be typical.
They don't make them like they used to that's for sure.

Eventually he replaced it nice.
But now you can't just replace crt tvs now you have to repair them or it's just gone forever.

I can't stop respecting ppl who stick to their work ethic despite moving up.
@@MDLuffy1234YT yeah, he was. Even at 75, still grabbed a shovel to dig a trench to find a water leak under my driveway. When I built my own studio, he did all the electrical work and helped hang all the drywall. He taught me self reliance and that a man can do anything that is doable.
