 Digital video.

Using Video :
 Video is an excellent tool for deliveringmultimedia.
 Video places the highest performance demand on computer and its
memoryand storage.
 Digital video has replaced analog as themethod of choice for making and
delivering video for multimedia.

 Digital video device produces excellentfinished products at a fraction of


the cost of analog.
 Digital video eliminates the image- degrading analog-to-digital conversion.
 Many digital video sources exist, but getting the rights can be difficult,
time-consuming, and expensive.

How Video Works :


 Light reflected from an object throughthe camera’s lens is converted
into electronic signal by charge-coupled device (CCD).
 This electronic signal contains threechannels of color information
and synchronization pulses (sync).
 Several video standards exist that deal with the amount of separation
betweenthe components of the signal.
 Analog video transfer methods

o Component video separates color and

brightness over three cables.

o S-video separates color and brightness over

two wires.

 Composite video transmits the whole videosignal in a single cable

Broadcast Video Standards :

National Television Standards Committee(NTSC):


– These standards define a method for encoding information into
electronic signalthat creates a television picture.
– It has screen resolution of 525 horizontal scan lines and a scan rate
of 30 frames persecond.
– United states, Canada, Mexico and Japan.

Phase Alternate Line (PAL)

• PAL has a screen resolution of 625 horizontal lines and a scan rate of25

frames per second.

• Used in United Kingdom, Western Europe, Australia, South Africa,

China and South America.

Sequential Color and Memory (SECAM):

 SECAM has a screen resolution of 625 horizontal lines and is a 50 Hzsystem.

 SECAM differs from NTSC and PAL color systems in its basic

technology and broadcast method.

 Used in France, Eastern Europe and few other countries.


Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) Digital Television
(DTV):
 This digital standard provides TV stations withsufficient bandwidth to
present four or five Standard Television (STV) signals or one High
Definition TV (HDTV) signal.
 This standard allows for transmission of data tocomputers and for new
Advanced TV (ATV) interactive services.

Digital Video :

 Video clip stored on any mass-storagedevice can be played back on a


computer’s monitor without special hardware.
 Setting up a production environment formaking digital video, requires
some hardware specifications.
 Some specifications include computer with FireWire connection and
cables, fast processor, plenty of RAM, fast andbig hard disk.

o Digital video architecture.


o Digital video compression.

Digital Video Architecture :

 Digital video architecture consists of aformat for encoding and playing


back video files by a computer.
 Architecture includes a player that can recognize and play files created for
thatformat.

Digital video compression :

 Digital video compression schemes orcodecs is the algorithm used to


compress (code) a video for delivery.
 The codec then decodes the compressed video in real-time for fast
playback.
 Streaming audio and video starts playback as soon as enough data has
transferred to the user’s computer to sustain this playback.

 MPEG is a real-time video compressionalgorithm.


 MPEG-4 includes numerous multimediacapabilities and is a preferred
standard.
 MPEG-7 (or Multimedia Content Description
Interface) integratesinformation about motion video
elements with their use.
