The television broadcast standard in the United States is ATSC, which is the standard for broadcast digital television. The ATSC standards ensure consistency, accessibility, and fairness for consumers and equipment manufacturers.
NTSC (National Television Standards Committee) is the video standard used in North America and most of South America. It was developed around 1941 and originally had no provision for color television.
ATSC-The five main ATSC formats of DTV broadcast in the US are:
480i: Standard definition, which is compatible with NTSC sets
480p: Enhanced definition, which is similar to DVD quality
720p: High definition
1080i: High definition
1080p: High definition, which is used by some cable operators and terrestrial stations
Frame rate-The standard frame rate for television has been 30 frames per second (fps) since the early days. This is still widely used, but producers are moving towards a more cinematic 24 fps.
