Interlaced/non-interlaced
Interlaced.
The method of writing a picture on the screen by initially writing all even lines and subsequently writing all
odd lines of the picture. Result: The complete picture is composed of two interlaced half pictures (or fields).
With interlacing, a vertical (or field) frequency of 50 Hz means a picture (or frame) frequency of 25 Hz.
Non-interlaced.
The method of writing a picture on the screen by successive video lines of the picture so that a full frame is
written onto the screen in one vertical sweep of the beams. With a non-interlaced display, a vertical
frequency of 50 Hz means a picture (or frame) frequency of 50 Hz. At any given resolution, non-interlaced
modes are preferable to interlaced modes; however, generation of non-interlaced modes is more expensive.
