pixel. This design of display is also referred to as active matrix, however
it is frequently also referred to as TFT display.

television transmitters transmit in the vertical blanking interval of the
television signal. The signal is used by video and DVD recorders when re-
cording programmes to react to delays in start time, programme changes
and excesses of the planned program time.
