I wasn’t actually suggesting they necessarily did it on the cheap, intention obviously good, but IMO it looks incompetently done possibly because whoever was managing it was incompetent rather than tight. It literally can’t play the whole shot of video footage… it’s such a minor thing but why pretend it’s perfect if it isn’t and why give stick to somebody merely commenting on that point!
ours is brand new… but just randomly saw this pic of the screen at Stoke yesterday, which again *appears* to be much better proportioned for the purpose it serves.🤷♂️
I'm sick of naysayers and doom-mongers on here, usually the very vocal minority, that throw around their own opinion like it's facts and shit on everything the club does, then have the audacity to complain when someone comes along and stops them and says "hey, actually what you're shouting from the rooftops is horseshit" and then they usually go super defensive, or backtrack like crazy, but the damage has already been done.

One company can offer a huge range of different levels of product or service. The fact they haven't got Del and Rodney to fit it doesn't mean it wasn't done cheaply / on a budget. Again, unless you work for the club, have had sight of the budget and process involved in choosing a screen which cannot show proper video footage, then your assertion about cheap/expensive or any other description is in fact opinion contrary to your bizarrely confident claim.
To repeat, I'm glad the club are trying to improve things and not criticising the owners for the sake of it, or outright. However, I have every right to point out the very clear failing in what they've installed.
FWIW, to qualify my "opinions" as you seem so intent on shouting them down, I am actually professionally involved in the hospitality industry including with an about to open brand new sports bar concept in Central London so I have a limited concept of what is possible in this sector. Despite this, I'm not claiming to know for sure what the budget or workings were, unlike yourself. So pipe down ya cocky sod!8 -
I think the layout looks crisp and clear, as long as you can read the names and numbers I think that is what 95% of fans want.

Hopefully it will have a reverse camera to the plod control room, so when it goes off next season with the spanners they can get over to the gates more quicker.

Losing an online "arguement" over something pretty trivial so you throw out some insults. Classic dick move. Enjoy your night0

For someone who said they weren't that bothered about it, you ain't half making a lot of noise about it.
It's a screen. It's an upgrade on the last one and did it's job perfectly well. It's really not worth getting all worked up about.
And we've won every game played since we bought it. So that'll do for me!

Does a job with the players names etc but footage wise as in this from ©️ brazilliance you tube offering shows a crappy replay of the goal , maybe just a one off or the picture fitting the screen is crap .
best bit about it is the cover up job of the shit underneath2 -

the post from OAM with a pic of the replay above shows the point I've been shot down for making. Sorry for behaving like a "tit", and even more sorry for making you feel like one...
A good evening to you sir!2 -

On a side note, this forum has gotten pathetic over the last few years. So much bickering over what should be normal conversations.
The screen looked terrible in the pics online, that was a wide spread view online. However, it does look better in person, and the graphics are easier to read.
Does it still look out of place and odd? A bit, yeah, is it an improvement on the old screen, I would say so.
Pros -
Happy to see people spending money on us
Easier to read line ups
I like how the graphic setups look
Cons -
It could be better (taller screen to look more full)
It doesn't look very glamorous (surrounding)
For the money they presumably spent, they could have made sure it was better and maybe got some fan feedback first?
All-in-all, it's a discussion about a TV. It should never be so petty.1 -
It's important to remember that the screen output is only as good as the input.
Replays of any action will depend on the cameras around the ground. If the game is televised better quality pictures may be available.1 -
Different coloured scarves for a protest?
Why did no one think of that under Duchatelet?4 -
From company adi.tv website
who installed the screen between ES + JS on their site shows what else is planned
looks like a 2nd screen is planned next to the white police command centre & WS
....& grass planned for under the ES + JS screen?0 -
Or maybe its a Reebok advertising board by police command centre?0

Most people on here wanted to have the chance to see it for themselves before going mental one way or the other. Now we've seen it the general consensus seems to be that it's alright, pretty good in fact, although there were some formatting issues (which I presume will be looked at and resolved).4 -

I think it looked good. The only gripes I had was that video got cropped to fit the screen rather than pillarboxed. Anything that's shot in 4:3 (ie older than about 2005-6) loses 75% of the picture, for instance. The players' names were easier to read and the scoreboard seemed brighter.0

The tweak in layout after the women's game shows they are still learning.
Because it is a new screen being added to an old build its size, in particular its height, is restricted by the stands and the steps. It couldn't be the size seen it new purpose built stadiums.
The old screen was a third of the size plus it was very old and being patched together, figuratively, with duct tape.
What we have is better even if it is not perfect.

The reaction was negative, cause it did genuinely look bad from what we saw. It does look better in person, but as people have explained quite well in this thread, there is room for improvement.
Glad to hear other improvements have been made, I need to explore more of the Valley as I have a set routine and don't really sway away from it.0 -

I've probably missed it but what actually is the aspect ration of the new screen?
Does it match some sort of new standard for future proofing.
