    These may also use other aspect ratios by cropping otherwise black bars at the top and bottom which result from cinema aspect ratios greater than 16∶9, such as 1.85 or 2.35 through 2.40 (dubbed "Cinemascope", "21∶9" etc.), while the standard horizontal resolution, e.g. 1920 pixels, is usually kept.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    Mapping a two-dimensional texture onto a 3D model 1: 3D model without textures 2: Same model with textures. Texture mapping [1] [2] [3] is a method for mapping a texture on a computer-generated graphic. "Texture" in this context can be high frequency detail, surface texture, or color.

    1080p progressive scan HDTV, which uses a 16:9 ratio. Some commentators also use display resolution to indicate a range of input formats that the display's input electronics will accept and often include formats greater than the screen's native grid size even though they have to be down-scaled to match the screen's parameters (e.g. accepting a 1920 × 1080 input on a display with a native 1366 ...

  5. Texture compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_compression

    Texture compression is a specialized form of image compression designed for storing texture maps in 3D computer graphics rendering systems. Unlike conventional image compression algorithms, texture compression algorithms are optimized for random access. Texture compression can be applied to reduce memory usage at runtime.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/16:9_aspect_ratio

    While 16:9 (1.7 7:1) was initially selected as a compromise format, the subsequent popularity of HD broadcast has solidified 16:9 as perhaps the most common video aspect ratio in use. [7] Most 4:3 (1.3 3 :1) and 21:9 video is now recorded using a " shoot and protect " technique that keeps the main action within a 16:9 (1.7 7 :1) inner rectangle ...

    Milkdrop is the successor of an earlier music visualization software by Ryan Geiss, the geiss plugin for Winamp, released around 1998. [4] [5] The geiss plugin did the real-time music visualization purely software rendered by utilizing the CPU effectively by highly optimized, hand-tuned assembly code.

  8. 21:9 aspect ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/21:9_aspect_ratio

    21:9" ("twenty-one by nine" or "twenty-one to nine") is a consumer electronics (CE) marketing term to describe the ultrawide aspect ratio of 64:27 (2. 370:1 or 21. 3:9), designed to show films recorded in CinemaScope and equivalent modern anamorphic formats. The main benefit of this screen aspect ratio is a constant display height when ...

    The ATI HD5470 GPU (above, with copper heatpipe attached) features UVD 2.1 which enables it to decode AVC and VC-1 video formats. Most GPUs made since 1995 support the YUV color space and hardware overlays , important for digital video playback, and many GPUs made since 2000 also support MPEG primitives such as motion compensation and iDCT .
