English term or phrase: blocky
Why does the video on my LCD display screen appear blocky or distorted.

Noen som kjenner et godt norsk ord her? I Thesaurus er "blocky" beskrevet slik: "marked by blocks or patches of unequally distributed light and shade, as in a photograph"

kantete


Explanation:
Dette er vel mer dagligspråk enn fagterminologi. Jeg vil foreslå "kantete" (eller evt. "blokkete").

pikselert


Explanation:
Bildet ser vel egentlig pikselert ut, dvs. at det oppsår små "blokker" i bildet, ikke kantete :-)

Example sentence(s):
  • Helt greit til visning av tekst, mens bilder blir naturligvis veldig grovkornet og detaljfattige. Det mest positive er at skjermen er lesbar fra alle...
  • Jo større pikslene er desto mer grovkornet blir bildet å se til.
