Text modes use 16 KB divided into 4 or 8 pages, for 80×25 or 40×25 text formats respectively; any part of the 16 KB not used for text display pages can be used as general RAM. In graphical modes, the base 128 KB of RAM is divided into eight 16 KB banks. [25] The PCjr can use any bank for video generation, in a video mode that uses 16 KB.
Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) and Enhanced EDID (E-EDID) are metadata formats for display devices to describe their capabilities to a video source (e.g., graphics card or set-top box). The data format is defined by a standard published by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA).
Test cards typically contain a set of patterns to enable television cameras and receivers to be adjusted to show the picture correctly (see SMPTE color bars).Most modern test cards include a set of calibrated color bars which will produce a characteristic pattern of "dot landings" on a vectorscope, allowing chroma and tint to be precisely adjusted between generations of videotape or network feeds.
EBU 100/0/100/0 Colour Bars Displayed colours are only approximate due to different transfer and colour spaces used on web pages and video (BT.601 or BT.709). An alternate form of colour bars is the 100% Colour Bars or EBU 100/0/100/0 Colour Bars pattern (specified in ITU-R Rec. BT.1729 [8]), also known as the RGB pattern or full field bars, which consists of eight vertical bars of 100% ...
The original IBM CGA graphics card was built around the Motorola 6845 display controller, [2] came with 16 kilobytes of video memory built in, and featured several graphics and text modes. The highest display resolution of any mode was 640 × 200, and the highest color depth supported was 4-bit (16 colors).
This is the highest resolution that generally can be displayed on analog computer monitors (most CRTs), and the highest resolution that most analogue video cards and other display transmission hardware (cables, switch boxes, signal boosters) are rated for (at 60 Hz refresh). 24-bit colour requires 9 MB of video memory (and transmission ...
Interlaced highres monochrome ZX Spectrum image. Real picture taken from a Sinclair ZX Spectrum +3 using composite output and a PCI capture card. The technique does not in fact achieve a true interlaced display, as the Spectrum lacks the ability to synchronise with the display hardware at such a low level.
Experimental broadcasts using the first three prototype versions of the UEIT (one of which was a modification of the Hungarian HTV TR.0782 test card; [9] but all were collectively referred to as UEIT-1) began from the Ostankino Tower transmitter in 1970, with results being used to create the current version of the test pattern.
