Invited Paper: Video Format Conversion
Gerard de Haan · SID Symposium Digest of Technical Papers · 1999
Abstract High quality video format converters apply motion estimation and motion compensation to prevent judder, resulting from picture rate conversion, and alias, due to de‐interlacing, in sequences with motion. Although initially considered being too expensive, high quality conversion is now economically feasible, and since 1995 available in consumer television ICs. This paper addresses the issues in format conversion and shows recent progress, introducing a new high quality video format conversion IC for consumer applications.
