Digital Television Recording — History and Background

Doc Type: Journal Article
Article Type: research-article
Abstract: In the development of digital television recording, many interrelated issues needed to be resolved. This article attempts to give the relevant history of the process to improve understanding of the decisions made or of the concepts involved. Probably the most important concept, without which agreement would have been impossible, was that the format of the digital recording laid on the tape should be defined, rather than the format of the recorder itself. Other concepts introduced include the self-contained segment, segments in a field, the two/four-channel approach, gap-in-the-middle, distribution of words between sectors and within sectors, channel coding and randomization, error correction and concealment, and overlap editing.
