ABSTRACT

Video processing alters the original video signals, but if used correctly it can actually improve the quality of the video. This is especially true with low-resolution or low-quality video. Video quality not only depends on a properly calibrated display, it is also influenced by the video processing employed by the display and the source components. Readers' video display should show the video images as they were intended by the director and producers without altering or enhancing them. The native resolution equals the actual number of pixels displayed on the screen, while the input resolution is merely the resolution of the video material that the display accepts. The image quality of a video display varies with the angle from which readers view the screen. The displayed image may remain visible as a residual image even when the display is showing other video material.
