Type of edit transition where either the video or audio of the source is delayed from being recorded for a given time.
Industry:Software
The duration of an automatic transition from one bus to the other is defined as the transition rate. The transition rate may be applied to a mix, wipe or E key, and is operator-selectable from 0 to 9.9 seconds.

The model is similar in structure to that of SNA. It consists of seven architectural layers: the physical layer and data link layer, the network layer; the transport layer; the session layer; the presentation layer; the application layer. (
Industry:Software
When a database is visualized, it is “projected” from 3D into 2D (the screen). Two kinds of projection are used, projection and orthogonal.
Industry:Software
A file format (tagged image format file) preferred over the bitmap (BMP) file format for Windows applications. TIF files may be compressed or uncompressed and contain a header similar to BMP files. A special version of TIF is used for compressed data FAX transmission.
Industry:Software
A large array of several monitors, placed close to each other in the shape of a video screen or “wall.” Each monitor is fed only part of the original video image by using a video-wall generating unit. This device is a digitally-based processor which converts the original analogue video signal to digital, rescans, resamples, and generates several individual analogue video outputs for driving each array monitor separately. When viewed from a distance, the effect can be very dramatic.
Industry:Software
The sharpness or “crispness” of the picture. Resolution can be measured numerically by establishing the number of scanning lines used to create each frame of video. a) The number of bits (four, eight, ten, etc.) determines the resolution of the digital signal; 4-bits = a resolution of 1 in 16, 8-bits = a resolution of 1 in 256 (minimum for broadcast TV), 10-bits = a resolution of 1 in 1024. b) The basic measurement of how much information is on the screen. It is usually described as the number of pixels in the horizontal axis by the number of horizontal lines. The higher the numbers, the better the system’s resolution. Some typical resolutions are: NTSC VHS - 240 x 485; NTSC broadcast - 330 x 485; NTSC laserdisc – 425 x 485; ITU-R BT.601 (525/60) - 720 x 485; Computer screen – 1280 x 1024. c) The capability of making distinguishable individual parts of an image. A measure of how clear the picture looks. d) Perceivable detail. See also Chroma Resolution, Diagonal Resolution, Dynamic Resolution, Horizontal Resolution, Spatial Resolution, Static Resolution, and Temporal Resolution. e) The amount of detail in an image. Higher resolution equals more detail. Generally expressed in “lines.” It is the number of vertical line pairs that the system can distinguish, and has no relationship to the number of horizontal scan lines.
Industry:Software
An electronic process which allows the viewing of two video images, side by side or above and below, on-screen simultaneously.
Industry:Software
To move an object without rotation in a straight line, either left or right, up or down, in or out, or any combination thereof, in three-dimensional space.
Industry:Software
A character or word that the system displays that indicates the system is ready to accept commands.
