Abstract

As the TV world is going digital, new solutions to some conversion demands on TV archive materials need to be specified, and at the same time change of format need to be taken into consideration. Telecine was and still is the main conversion tool used to get electronic video signals of film pictures, and still protect projects closest possible artistic atmosphere of film image, or documentary content of archived material, but film is not what TV archive is all about. Differences appear because of different TV screen aspect ratio, as well as different resolution. Therefore different balance of picture elements, because of the format conversion processes results with different content or atmosphere of the TV projected picture. In this article some possible combinations of transmitted signal and TV aspect ratio are compared.
