HDTV Production Formats for the New DTV Standard

Charles A. Pantuso

As the requirement to produce an increasing volume of HDTV-ready programs looms ever-closer on the horizon, the need to establish viable, cost-effective systems to create these programs becomes more important. — This paper analyzes current and proposed production standards in terms of technical adequacy, availability, interchangeability, and cost. Real-world conversion examples are analyzed, particularly with respect to edit master archival quality and compatibility with the receivers being planned by the consumer electronics industry.
