Sony wired transport control protocol that duplicates a VCR’s infra-red remote transport control (play, stop, pause, fast forward, and rewind). Unlike Control-L, Control-S does not allow the controller to read tape counter information.
Industry:Entertainment
Similar to Control-L but allows multiple units to be controlled.
not used in current equipment.
Industry:Entertainment
Tape that is electrically tested on a specified number of tracks and is certified by the supplier to have less than a certain total number of permanent errors.
Industry:Entertainment
This term is used to signify the analog NTSC television system as defined in ITU-R Recommendation 470. See also Standard Definition Television and ITU-R Recommendation 1125.
Industry:Entertainment
Equipment that evaluates the ability of magnetic tape to record and reproduce. The equipment normally counts and charts each error on the tape, including level and duration of dropouts. In the Certify Mode, it stops on error to allow for visually inspecting the tape to see if the error cause is correctable or permanent.

Industry:Entertainment
Standardized image systems now exist in the following frame rates per second: 24, 25, 29.97, 30, and 60. In transcoding from one system to another, frame rate conversion algorithms perform this conversion. The algorithm may be as simple as to drop or add frames or fields, or it may process the information to generate predictive frames employing information from the original sequence. In interlace systems, the algorithm may be applied independently to each field.
Industry:Entertainment
A modulation technique that converts raw data into a signal that can be recorded or transmitted by radio or cable.
