Frequently Asked Questions

What is digital video?

It is a term referring to moving pictures that are stored in binary form on a computer hard disk for editing or playback. Digital video files vary in terms of their image size (measured in horizontal and vertical pixels) and their frame rate (measured in frames per second).

What is frame rate?

Refers to the number of individual still pictures that pass by every second to create a moving image, typically described in frames-per-second (fps). Films run at 24fps, while video, including DVD, runs at 30fps. Higher frame rates improve the appearance of video motion.
