Abstract

Channel 4 chose Panasonic's D5 digital component tape in early 1992, over Sony's Digital Betacam, and Ampex's DCT. The decision to use a non-compression format was taken as the channel already uses a 40:1 compression ratio in its distribution network, and it wanted to avoid over-compressing the signal. Channel 4 will continue to accept deliveries on D3 until 1995/96.
