Bit rate--The bit rate indicates the volume of the data stream per second. Unlike constant bit rates, variable bit rates adjust the size of the data stream according to the video material. Chroma keying --Chroma keying uses a surface with a single color in front of which an actor, for example, is filmed. This color area is then made transparent during subsequent editing and can be replaced by a different background. Chrominance--Chrominance refers to the color signal in -> YUV, which is comprised of two color components: U, the balance between red and cyan, and V, the balance between yellow and blue. Composite video--Composite video is a transmission method common in the consumer sector that is generally realized using cinch connectors and which is frequently used, for example, on TVs. In this process, all signals (chrominance and luminance) share a single cable. DV-In--Usually, the DV jack of a camcorder can transport video data in both directions-- to and from the camcorder. Enabling--Due to European import duties, imported digital video recorders are more expensive than imported digital video playback devices. For this reason, manufacturers of camcorders have begun to modify their products for the European market and to disable the digital input -> DV-In. Needless to say, clever developers found a way around this restriction very quickly. Enabling the DV camcorder is a precondition for sending video material back to the camcorder. Enablers are available for almost all camcorders and can be purchased freely. Fading--Fades are soft transitions, often involving special effects, from one clip to the next. Fields--Rather than displaying 25 frames per second (as per the PAL standard), 50 fields are displayed per second to reduce TV display flicker. These fields consist of either the oddnumbered rows (these are sent first) or the even rows of the image being displayed. [. . . ] Timeline--The timeline is the time axis upon which you position and edit your video clips. Trimming--This refers to adjusting the length of a video clip at the beginning and/or end. The Video CD has a PAL resolution of 352 X 288 pixels and stores audio and video data in MPEG-1 format. VCDs use a constant -> bit rate of 1. 15 Mbps for video and 224 kbps for audio data. [. . . ]
