High Definition Becomes the Standard
Allthough everybody talks about high definition these days, you may be surprised to know that it is not a particularly new term. In fact it was used way back in the 1930s when the British 405 line (black and white) TVs where introduced. Their resolution was higher than on the older sets, so thus it was called “high definition”.
Even So, high defintion can mean technically different things, riding on in what context the term is used.
Essentially, high definition television is the opitomy of television technology as we know it, that has surfaced so far. It makes full use of the 16:9 aspect ratio, that has long been used in movie theaters, that is standard on all new television screens. The resolution is up to five times from ordinary (SD) resolution, which means the picture is much sharper and deeper. What it really boils down to – high definition is the best available picture on a television. However, there are three different variations of it: 720p, 1080i and 1080p. The latter is the one referred to as “full hd” and is what new blu-ray movies are offered in.
The format to work with avchd video, is most of the time 1080i. Additional info on avchd video editing software is on tap here.
