SC/H and Color-Framing (Orig
The Final Word on SC/H and Color-framing (Orig. 2/1990 Rev. 7 1/2000 © Eric Wenocur) Anyone editing with 1” Type-C VTRs and today’s complex interformat systems has experienced the unwanted appearance of a horizontal shift in the picture, and the ensuing search for the cause. While the terms “SC/H phase” and “color-framing” are used regularly, they continue to be sources of confusion and misunderstanding to users of VTRs and editing equipment. Although at times we are tempted to attribute problems to the “gremlins” that we know live in our facilities, there really are answers to most color-framing issues! This article is intended to help explain and de-mystify the principles of color-framing in the hope that solutions become more obvious. It will cover a small amount of SC/H phase technical theory, and then explore TBC operation, 1” VTR color-framing and editing, Betacam and MII operation, framestores, and setting up an SC/H timed system. Emphasis has been placed on both the theory and its practical ramifications. SC/H BACKGROUND BASICS The term SC/H phase, short for “subcarrier-to-horizontal” phase, describes a phase (time) relationship between colorburst and horizontal sync in a composite video signal. Because of the relationship between the frequencies of horizontal rate, subcarrier, and number of lines per frame, the phase of colorburst changes 90 degrees every field, while the phase of picture subcarrier (chroma) changes 180 degrees every two fields. Consequently, every two fields the chroma and burst are in phase, but 180 degrees reversed from the previous frame.

Glossary of Digital Video Terms
Glossary of Digital Video Terms 24P: 24 frame per second, progressive scan. This has been the frame rate of motion picture film since talkies arrived. It is also one of the rates allowed for transmission in the DVB and ATSC television standards – so they can handle film without needing any frame-rate change (3:2 pull-down for 60 fields-per-second systems or running film at 25fps for 50 Hz systems). It is now accepted as a part of television production formats – usually associated with high definition 1080 lines, progressive scan. A major attraction is a relatively easy path from this to all major television formats as well as offering direct electronic support for motion picture film and D-cinema. 24Psf: 24 frame per second, progressive segmented frame. A 24P system in which each frame is segmented – recorded as odd lines followed by even lines. Unlike normal television, the odd and even lines are from the same snapshot in time – exactly as film is shown today on 625/50 TV systems. This way the signal is more compatible (than normal progressive) for use with video systems, e.g. VTRs, SDTI or HD-SDI connections, mixers/switchers etc., which may also handle interlaced scans. It can also easily be viewed without the need to process the pictures to reduce 24-frame flicker. 3:2 pull-down: Method used to map the 24 fps of film onto the 30 fps (60 fields) of 525-line TV, so that one film frame occupies three TV fields, the next two, etc. It means the two fields of every other TV frame come from different film frames making operations such as rotoscoping impossible, and requiring care in editing.
