Development of Component Digital VTRs and the Potential of the D-1 Format

Jurgen K. R. Heitmann

Discussions about digital component recording have been under way since 1979. For about one year appropriate equipment has been on the market, and other equipment will follow. The introduction of the 19-mm component DVTR represents a significant advance in technology and operational practice. Next, of course, is the transition from analog video to digital video, then a further transition from composite video to component video. The digital component video recorder can be considered the key for the digital studio of the future.
