Standards Conversion & the Alchemist Ph.C
You may be familiar with the terms NTSC (National Television System Committee), PAL (Phase Alternating Line) and SECAM (“Séquentiel couleur à mémoire,” which is French for “Sequential Color with Memory.”)
They are the three main broadcast standards in the world, and the broadcast telelvision signals of a particular country are one of the three (some countries do have two).
For a complete list of the standards in the world, check out http://www.sivideo.com/9stand.htm
We here in the USA are NTSC, while most of Europe is PAL. France and a number of countries in Asia are SECAM.
PAL and SECAM are quite similar, and since the requests for our making SECAM dubs is very rare here at Video Labs, I’ll confine my comments in this article to NTSC vs. PAL.
