Magnetic Media for DTTR

A. R. Moore, M. P. Sharrock

The SMPTE Digital Television Tape Recorder (MTR) Committee has been in the process of developing an industry consensus for the tape format standard since mid-1983, with the formal work assignment of working group MTR (V16.64). It is informative to look at the trends in the magnetic video tape industry relative to the requirements of the SMPTE proposed American National Working Standard V16.74 for the MTR, Type D-1. This standard covers the principal tape properties and will become the proposed SMPTE 225 standard.
