Colour
Temperature: The colour quality, expressed in degrees Kelvin (K), of a light source. The higher the
colour
temperature, the bluer the light. The lower the temperature, the redder the light. Benchmark colour
temperature for the A/V industry include 500K, 6500°K,and 900K.
Saturation:
Chroma, Chroma gain. The intensity of the colour, or the extent to which a given colour in any image is
free from white. The less white in a colour, the truer the colour or the greater its saturation. Saturation is the amount
of pigment in a colour, and not the intensity.
Gamma:
The light output of a CRT is not linear with respect to the voltage input. The difference between
what you should have and what is actually output is known as gamma.
Frame: In interlaced video, a frame is one complete image.A video frame is made up of two fields, or two sets of
interlaced lines. In a film, a frame is one still image of a series that makes up a motion image.
Genlock:
Allows synchronisation of otherwise video devices. A signal generator provides a signal pulses which
connected devices can reference. Also see Black Burst and Color Burst.
Blackburst:
The video waveform without the video elements.It includes the vertical sync, horizontal sync,
and the Chroma burst information. Blackburst is used to synchronize video equipment to align the video
output.
ColourBurst: In colour TV systems, a burst of subcarrier frequency located on the back part of the composite
video signal. This serves as a colour synchronizing signal to establish a frequency and phase reference for the
Chroma signal. Colour burst is 3.58 MHz for NTSC and 4.43 MHz for PAL.
Colour Bars:
A standard test pattern of several basic
colours (white, yellow, cyan, green, magenta, red, blue, and
black) as a reference for system alignment and testing. In NTSC video, the most commonly used colour bars are the
SMPTE standard colour bars. In PAL video, the most commonly used colour bars are eight full field bars. On
computer monitors the most commonly used colour bars are two rows of reversed colour bars
Seamless Switching: A feature found on many video switchers. This feature causes the switcher to wait until the
vertical interval to switch. This avoids a glitch (temporary scrambling) which often is seen when switching between
sources.
●Scaling: A conversion of a video or computer graphic signal from a starting resolution to a new resolution. Scaling
from one resolution to another is typically done to optimize the signal for input to an image processor, transmission
path or to improve its quality when presented on a particular display.
PIP:
Picture-In-Picture. A small image within a larger image created by scaling down one of image to make it
smaller. Other forms of PIP displays include Picture-By-Picture (PBP) and Picture- With-Picture (PWP), which are
commonly used with 16:9 aspect display devices. PBP and PWP image formats require a separate scaler for each
video window .
HDR: is a high dynamic range (HDR) technique used in imaging and photography to reproduce a
