These are the three video signals, Red Green Blue, which make up the picture.
Using these signals improves
picture
quality.
These are 2 separate Y/C video signals from the S-VHS and Hi-8 recording
standards. The luminance signals Y (black and
white) and chrominance
signals C (colour)
are recorded
separately
on the tape. This provides
better picture
quality than
with standard video (VHS and 8 mm) where the Y/C signals are combined
to provide
only one video signal.
Process
by which digital sound can be transmitted.
