That is what I have been preaching here since Noah's Ark had hit the rocks. And now, to cut to the chase - North America has got SMPTE's NTSC and SMPTE's 72p & 1080i ATSC, whereas Europe has got PAL and EBU's 50p DVB television standards. Okay, fair enough, Sean, so I suppose that was the long version. Great news, Mark - so how come then that the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 camera cannot even record something as dirt simple as 1080p24 video, hmmm? Similarly, if you should purchase a Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 camera in Europe - NTSC is gonna be completely irrelevant to you.įurthermore, whether you purchase a Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 camera in North America OR in Europe OR in fact anywhere else on this here planet - 24p / 24 fps video recording is gonna be completely irrelevant to you, too.Ĭommercial blurays can be played in any country (except there are Region codes), and are typically 108024p. Well, I would make a slight correction to the above Mark-o-thesis: if you purchase a Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7 camera in North America - PAL is gonna be completely irrelevant to you. PAL and NTSC are completely irrelevant to HD and therefore to commercial blurays, which are HD, as you have been told over and over again. Is that the official position of the United Nations, too? Since DVD's are SD, PAL and NTSC refer to them. NTSC and PAL are SD standards for US and elsewhere. On the PAL and NTSC confusion: in Sony Vegas, 59.950 frame rates are labelled 'NTSC' and 50.00 fps is labelled 'PAL'. And, relatedly, ATSC and DVB have nothing to do with what cameras or camorders shoot. Encoding actual video information is done in higher protocol layers, typically by defining a transport stream format and choosing a codec (such as MPEG-2 or H.264 for digital broadcasts). The digital standards (ATSC and DVB) basically provide a medium over which bits can be delivered - the over-the-air equivalent of an Ethernet cable. PAL, NTSC, ATSC and DVB are all broadcast standards, and as such they specify the radio frequencies to be used, the modulation techniques, error correction formats, etc. The European version of the HD broadcast standard (i.e., their version of North America's "ATSC") is called DVB ("Digital Video Broadcasting").
So these terms are getting entrenched in the lexicon of the industry as a shortcut for frame rates.īut in a video editor, if you choose an output format that's labelled "PAL" or "NTSC", you're certainly not going to get HD video at 60p, which is what the OP was trying to do.īTW, what do they call the new PAL standard - is that EURO €? It's not a correct use of the term, but other than "PAL" and "NTSC", I don't know of any other easy generic term to refer to these frame rates (or the regions in which they apply). What it's really doing is letting you choose between the two alternate sets of frame rates - the choice has nothing whatsoever to do with resolution, which controlled via a different setup option.

For example I've just been looking at the instruction manual for the GoPro Hero 3 cameras, and they have a setup option which allows you to switch between "NTSC" and "PAL" modes. I think that a lot of the confusion comes from from the fact that many cameras still use PAL and NTSC as terms to refer to 25/50 vs. PAL and NTSC are completely irrelevant to HD and therefore to commercial blurays, which are HD
