And former NTSC countries watching 1080i in 29.970fps and 720p channels at 59.94fps, which is in keeping with color NTSC frame rate of 30000/1001 or a field rate of 60000/1001 (59.94 fields per second). However the effects of NTSC and PAL are still will us today, with watching DVB (former PAL countries) digital tv at 25fps for 1080i (maybe 50fps for 720p/576 idk).
Anymore it only lives on when capturing dead formats like VHS or Laserdisc, but even then it's no longer analog after capture.įormer PAL countries moved on to DVB while many former NTSC countries moved on to ATSC, and I think all digital broadcast TV around the world on satellite is DVB. Of course there are minor exceptions to my generalization but for the average person reading on this forum it's true. Should point out that NTSC and PAL don't really exist anymore in the world, as far as new content being produced or broadcasted.
