a) The property of color which relates to the amount of white light in the color. Highly saturated colors are vivid, while less saturated colors appear pastel. For example, red is highly saturated while pink is the same hue but much less saturated. b) In signal terms, saturation is determined by the ratio between luminance level and chrominance amplitude. It should be noted that a vectorscope does not display saturation; the length of the vectors represents chrominance amplitude. In order to verify that the saturation of the colors in a color bar signal is correct, you must check luminance amplitudes with a waveform monitor in addition to observing the vectors. c) The amount of gray, as opposed to hue, in a color. See Hue.
Industry:Software
Authorizations granted to FM broadcasters for using subcarriers on their channels for other communications services.
Industry:Software
The process of creating extra data from an incoming video stream to increase the image size by interpolating or replicating data before placing it into memory.
Industry:Software
The physical dimensions of magnetic particles used in a magnetic tape.
Industry:Software
raw
A bitstream format in which the video data is uncompressed. See Compress, Encode.
Industry:Software
Refers to always using Offset Register 0 (GR9) as the window into display memory. The mode is selected when GRB(0) is programmed to “0.”
Industry:Software
The ridged knob attached to a screw in a cable connector that you turn to secure the connector to an outlet.
Industry:Software
a) A transition between two video signals that occurs in the shape of a selected pattern. b) Any pattern system effect that reveals a new video, and more specifically, one that does not have an enclosed boundary on the screen. c) Special effect in which two pictures from different video sources are displayed on one screen. Special effects generators provide numerous wipe patterns varying from simple horizontal and vertical wipes to multi-shaped, multi-colored arrangements. The Digital Video Mixer includes this effect.
Industry:Software
Pictures that are coded with respect to the nearest previous I- or P-picture. This technique is termed forward prediction. P-pictures provide more compression than I-pictures and serve as a reference for future P-pictures or B-pictures. P-pictures can propagate coding errors when P-pictures (or B-pictures) are predicted from prior P-pictures where the prediction is flawed.
Industry:Software
The maximum intrinsic flux density possible in a sample of magnetic material. The intrinsic flux density asymptotically approaches the saturation flux density as the magnetizing field strength is increased. A magnetizing field strength in excess of 5000 Oe is necessary to obtain an accurate measure of the saturation flux density of a typical tape.
