1、 Rec. ITU-R BR.1441 1 RECOMMENDATION ITU-R BR.1441*COMPROMISE SCANNED AREA DIMENSIONS FOR TELEVISION FROM 35 mm WIDE- SCREEN FILMS (Question ITU-R 240/11) (2000) Rec. ITU-R BR.1441 The ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, considering a) that the scanned area dimensions listed in Recommendation ITU-R BR.

2、1374 are: a.1) maximum projectable image area dimensions corresponding to ISO standards for cinematographic film intended for optical projection; a.2) maximum safe areas to be scanned from film specially shot and framed for television; b) that the scanned areas for wide-screen films given in Recomme

3、ndation ITU-R BR.1374 are based on one of the principles: b.1) to fill the television display with a full height central area of the film image (full screen); b.2) to show the full width of the film with black areas top and bottom of the television display (letterbox); c) that for some wide-screen f

4、ilms, a compromise, between the full-screen and letterbox scanning areas, may be preferred for artistic or heritage reasons; d) that there should be some recognized image aspect ratios and related image area dimensions that can be used as compromise alternatives for telecine scanning, recommends 1 t

5、hat, if required for artistic or other reasons, the following compromise presentation formats for wide-screen film on television should be used: For 4:3 television: 14:9, 16:9, 18:9 For 16:9 television: 18:9; 2 that those who prefer to use a compromise scanning area for wide-screen films should use

6、one of the scanning areas listed in Annex 1: Table 1 for 4:3 television systems; Table 2 for 16:9 television systems; 3 that a suitable test film should be used to align telecine equipment according to the recommended scanned areas (a suitable 35 mm test film is being prepared at the British Kinemat

7、ograph Sound and Television Society (BKSTS), London, United Kingdom (http:/); 4 that it should be taken into account that the dimensions and diagrams in this Recommendation relate to the image content of the transmitted signal. The possible cropping of the image due to over-scanning in the receiver

8、is discussed in Annex 1, 1. _ *This Recommendation should be brought to the attention of the International Standardization Organization (ISO). 2 Rec. ITU-R BR.1441 ANNEX 1 Compromise scanned aspect ratios for 4:3 and 16:9 television 1 Background Many of the wide-screen films produced in the past and

9、 at present for cinema presentation exist in formats with aspect ratios that are different to those used on television. These film aspect ratios include: 1.66:1 non anamorphic, wide-screen; 1.85:1 non anamorphic, wide-screen; 2.39:1 anamorphic, wide-screen. When these wide-screen film formats are sc

10、anned for 4:3 and 16:9 television, two basic principles are applied: The full screen method fills the TV screen. The full height of the film image is shown but image area at each side will be cropped. The letterbox method reproduces the film in its intended presentation format but leaves black areas

11、 at top and/or bottom of the television screen. In different countries, one or the other method is established and preferred by the audience. Some broadcasters have adopted a third, compromise, method to present some wide-screen films on television. This method is based on scanning between the full-

12、screen and the letterbox presentations. There will be smaller black areas top and bottom of the TV screen than in full letterbox presentation and less of the film image area each side will be cropped than in the full screen presentation. This Recommendation specifies a set of compromise aspect ratio

13、s and the corresponding image area dimensions to be scanned from 35 mm wide-screen motion picture films. It is intended to be a reference document for compromise transfer from telecine of programmes intended for transmission, exchange or distribution. 2 Television presentation The recommended compro

14、mise aspect ratios for reproduction on television are: Wide-screen films reproduced with one of these compromise aspect ratios will show the full height of the film image but some of the film image area will be cropped each side. In addition, there will be black areas at the top and/or bottom of the

15、 television display. Over-scanning in traditional cathode ray tube display results in some cropping of the transmitted image. The actual image content and the size of the black bars on the screen will depend on the amount of over-scanning. Receivers typically crop 5-10% of the overall image. In an i

16、mage displayed full-screen, both the image height and width will be cropped. In a letterbox display, the width will be cropped but only part of the black bars will be cropped from the height. This will result in a change in the aspect ratio of the displayed image. However, future flat screen display

17、s are not expected to suffer from the over-scanning effect and therefore will display the transmitted image without cropping.

20、d area dimensions The reference dimensions adopted for calculating the scanned areas for 4:3 and 16:9 television are based on the current ISO Standard for projection of 35 mm cinematographic films (ISO 2907 Cinematography Maximum projectable image area on 35 mm motion-picture film Position and dimen
