a) The ultimate image presented to a viewer; the process of presenting that image. b) CRT, LCD, LED, or other photo luminescent panel upon which numbers, characters, graphics, or other data is presented.
Industry:Entertainment
The order in which the decoded pictures are displayed. Normally this is the same order in which they were presented at the input of the encoder.
Industry:Entertainment
An efficient, widely compatible system required that distribution be free of detailed requirements specific to display, and that necessary additional display processing unique to that display class be conducted only at the display. The variety of display systems, already numerous, continues to increase. Each system or variant has its own set of specifications, performance characteristics, and requirements, including electro-optic transfer function, color gamut, scanning sequence, etc. Display signal processing might include transformation at the display to the appropriate luminance range and chrominance, to display primaries and reference white, matrixing to achieve metameric color match, adaptation to surround, plus conversion to scanning progressive or scanning interlaced, etc. Display processing may not be required for transmission if there is unique point-to-point routing clearly identified and appropriate processing has been provided in distribution. But it is frequently required for emission to a diffuse population of display systems.
Industry:Entertainment
A process whereby one video signal is gradually faded out while a second image simultaneously replaces the original one. See Mix.
Industry:Entertainment
Placing a mike far from a sound source so that a high proportion of reflected sound is picked up.
Industry:Entertainment
a) The process of getting a television signal from point to point; also the process of getting a television signal from the point at which it was last processed to the viewer. See also Contribution. b) The delivery of a completed program to distribution-nodes for emission/transmission as an electrical waveform, or transportation as a physical package, to the intended audiences. Preparation for distribution is the last step of the production cycle. Typical distribution-nodes include: release and duplicating laboratories, satellite systems, theatrical exchanges, television networks and groups, cable systems, tape and film libraries, advertising and program agencies, educational systems, government services administration, etc.
Industry:Entertainment
Device used to multiply (fan-out) a video signal. Typically, distribution amplifiers are used in duplication studios where many tape copies must be generated from one source or in multiple display setups where many monitors must carry the same picture, etc. May also include cable equalization and/or delay.
Industry:Entertainment
The level of quality of a television signal from the station to its viewers. Also know as Emission Quality.
Industry:Entertainment
a) Typically a random, low-level signal (oscillation) which maybe added to an analog signal prior to sampling. Often consists of white noise of one quantizing level peak-to-peak amplitude. b) The process of representing a color by mixing dots of closely related colors.
Industry:Entertainment
A slight expansion of the analog signal levels so that the signal comes in contact with more quantizing levels. The results are smoother transitions. This is done by adding white noise (which is at the amplitude of one quantizing level) to the analog signal prior to sampling.
