The way in which tape is wound onto a reel. An A-wind is one in which the tape is wound so that the coated surface faces toward the hub; a B-wind is one in which the coated surface faces away from the hub. A uniform wind, as opposed to an uneven wind, is one giving a flat-sided tape pack free from laterally displaced, protruding layers.
Industry:Software
A) The use of a predictor to provide an estimate of the pel value or data element currently being decoded. b) Prediction of a picture (P or B) with indication of a motion vector.
Industry:Software
The maximum magnetic moment possible in a sample of magnetic material.
Industry:Software
Colour specification system in which primary colours are subtracted from a reference colour to achieve a desired color.
Examples include the cyan/magenta/yellow (CMY) and luminance/red – luminance/blue – luminance (Y, R-Y, B-Y) systems.
Industry:Software
Bits in a time code sequence that are user definable; i.e., to give the sequence a name or to add the date, etc.
Industry:Software
A) An extra bit appended to a character as an accuracy check.
For example, if parity is even, the sum of all 1s in the character should be even. b) Number of 1s in a word, which may be even or odd. When parity is used, an extra bit is used to force the number of 1s in the word (including the parity bit) to be even (even parity) or odd (odd parity). Parity is one of the simplest error detection techniques and will detect a single-bit failure.
Industry:Software
Digitising technique whereby the contouring effects of digital video are minimised by adding a small amount of random noise to the signal. Also see Dithering.
Industry:Software
Type of transmission where only a part of the available transponder is used for the signal, allowing the satellite operator to sell the remaining space on the transponder to other uplinkers. SCPC is typically used for feeds rather than for direct programming.
The advantage of SCPC over MCPC is that the signals uplinked to the same transponder can be transmitted up to the satellite from different locations.
Industry:Software
Interconnect consisting of three wires. One wire transports luminance while the other two wires each transport a colordifference signal. This system is commonly used for connecting equipment in a “component facility” because it is more compatible with non-VTR video sources, time-base correctors, displays, and monitoring equipment.
Industry:Software
A device designed to wind and clean magnetic tape in order to restore it to a quality that approaches the condition of a new tape, providing the tape has not been physically damaged.
