Digital Video
• The rate at which the images are shown is the frame rate
• Film is displayed at 24 frames per second. Television
standards use 30 frames per second (NTSC) or 25 frames per
second (PAL). If the frame rate is too slow, the human eye
perceives an unevenness of motion called flicker
• Although digital video can be considered a three-dimensional
signal—a 2D image changing over time—analog video is
converted to a 1D signal of scan lines
• This scan line conversion was introduced to make analog
television broadcast technology work.

YUV subsampling
• Reception by color TV
YUV subsampling
• RGB is simplest
• RGB – three different values are stored for pixel

• YUV 3D view
• Note that the centre of face of YUV cube is white
YUV subsampling
• YUV 3D view
• Note that the centre of opposite face of YUV cube is BLACK

• YUV 3D view
• Note that the centre of opposite face of YUV cube is BLACK
YUV subsampling
• YUV 3D view
• A line connected the centre two faces (white and black). This
line represent the full range of luminance component (Y)

RGB and YUV schemes
• YUV 3D view
• Every value of Y is located at the centre of thin slice of this cube
• The values of Cb (U) and Cr(V) are the coordinates the two
dimensional plane
• Lower values of Cb and Cr are located at the lower left corner,
which is why shades are green are seen
