What is this BS 6758 - Type C helical video tape recorders about?
BS 6758 discusses specifications for type C helical videotape recorders to enhance the performance of the type c helical video tape recorders.
BS 6758 applies to magnetic video recording and/or reproduction using 25.4 mm (1 in) tape on type C helical videotape recorders suitable for broadcast applications.
BS 6758 defines the electrical and mechanical characteristics of equipment that will provide for interchangeability of recordings. The requirements given are related to 525 line-60 field and/or 625 line-50 field systems.
Who is BS 6758 - Type C helical video tape recorders for?
BS 6758 on type C helical video tape recorders is useful for:
- Video equipment manufactures
- Video tape recorders manufacturers
- Audio programmers
- Acousticians
- Sound technicians
Why should you use BS 6758 - Type C helical video tape recorders?
1–inch Type C (designated Type C by SMPTE) is a professional reel-to-reel analog recording helical scan videotape format. Two video recording heads are used, one for the active period of the field and a part of the vertical interval and one for the remainder of the vertical interval. Use of the latter head is optional.
BS 6758 specifies the dimensions and locations of recorded video, audio, and tracking control records.
BS 6758 discusses format description, environment, tapes and spools, transport geometry parameters and description of the basic system, dimensions, and location of records, electrical parameters, and transmission characteristics of the signal chain. This will help you to understand the electrical and mechanical characteristics of equipment that will provide for the interchangeability of recordings.
With obedience and compliance to BS 6758, you can enhance type C helical videotape recorders’ effectiveness and efficacy and manufacture a standardized product.
