480i vs 480p Q.

Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/480i vs 480p Q.

Just a quick question I can't seem to google up....

When I play my games on my no-frills 480i CRT, simple things like an anti-aliased lines have a "crawling" effect along the perimeter of the aliased portion of the line...

Is that due to the nature of an interlaced display or something?

If so, I'm tempted to grab a 480p TV (too cheap to afford a game-ready ED/HDTV still) if that would solve that problem for a more clearer display on my gaming systems, cause that (and the fact my current 21" has its display warp slightly with bright colors) bugs the crap out of me.
