About Pure Cinema

There are two types of video signals:

•Video material – Video signals recorded at 25 or 30 frames/second

•Film material – Video signals recorded at 24 frames/second

“Pure Cinema” uses signal processing suited for “film material” when converting 576i/480i or 1080i interlaced video signals into progressive video signals, resulting in clear picture reproduction without losing the quality of the material.
