2 FIELD

 

 

this item specifies whether the picture shift in 2-field mode

 

 

 

 

playback applies or not.

 

 

 

 

0: Picture shift does not apply.

 

 

 

 

1: Picture shift applies.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When recording composite signals, the composite input

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

signal is first converted to a component digital signal by

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

decoder (optional BKDW-505 for DVW-A500/1 and 500/1, or

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BKDW-506 for DVW-A500P/1 and 500P/1) before it is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

recorded.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To eliminate the adverse effect of the residual chroma

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

subcarrier component in the Y signal (the result of Y/C

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

separation), 4-field color framing is normally conducted for

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

playback (for NISC) or 8-field (for PAL). This VTR, however,

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

is able to produce high picture quality through automatic

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

shifting of the playback picture in the H direction even with 2-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

field (for NISC) or 2- or 4-field (for PAL) playback.
