PAL and NTSC have slightly divergent colour spaces, but the colour decoder differences here are ignored. Outside of film and TV broadcasts, the differences between PAL and NTSC when used in the context of video games were quite dramatic. For comparison, the NTSC standard is 60 fields/30 frames per second while PAL is 50 fields/25 frames per second.
For viewing native PAL or SECAM material (such as European television series and some European movies) on NTSC equipment, a standards conversion has to take place. There are basically two ways to accomplish this: The framerate can be slowed from 25 to 23.976 frames per second (a slowdown of about 4%) to subsequently apply 3:2 pulldown .
Analog television system by nation Analog color television encoding standards by nation. Every analog television system bar one began as a black-and-white system. Each country, faced with local political, technical, and economic issues, adopted a color television standard which was grafted onto an existing monochrome system such as CCIR System M, using gaps in the video spectrum (explained ...
NTSC 4.43 is a pseudo-system that transmits a NTSC color subcarrier of 4.43 MHz instead of 3.58 MHz [49] The resulting output is only viewable by TVs that support the resulting pseudo-system (such as most PAL TVs). [50] Using a native NTSC TV to decode the signal yields no color, while using an incompatible PAL TV to decode the system yields ...
A video standards converter is a video device that converts NTSC to PAL and/or PAL to NTSC. [1] The PAL TV signals may be transcoded to or from SECAM. Video standards converters are primarily used so television shows can be viewed in nations with different video standards. With the use of high-definition television, new digital video standards ...
The resolution of 960H depends on whether the equipment is PAL or NTSC based: 960H represents 960 x 576 (PAL) or 960 x 480 (NTSC) pixels. [29] 960H represents an increase in pixels of some 30% over standard D1 resolution, which is 720 x 576 pixels (PAL), or 720 x 480 pixels (NTSC). The increased resolution over D1 comes as a result of a longer ...
When transferred to NTSC television, the rate is effectively slowed to 23.976 FPS (24×1000÷1001 to be exact), and when transferred to PAL or SECAM it is sped up to 25 FPS. 35 mm movie cameras use a standard exposure rate of 24 FPS, though many cameras offer rates of 23.976 FPS for NTSC television and 25 FPS for PAL/SECAM.
The two SDTV signal types are 576i (with 576 interlaced lines of resolution, [6] derived from the European-developed PAL and SECAM systems), and 480i (with 480 interlaced lines of resolution, [3] based on the American NTSC system). SDTV refresh rates are 25, 29.97 and 30 frames per second, again based on the analog systems mentioned.
