Digital-S
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Digital-S or D-9 is a 4:2:2 digital video format from JVC. It is very similar to DVCPRO50, but records on videocassettes in the S-VHS form factor. It is not the same as JVC's D-VHS format, which uses MPEG-2 compression at a lower data rate.
Despite the similarity in form factor, D-9 gear uses a higher quality tape formulation that is not compatible with S-VHS or D-VHS hardware. Also, it is marketed primarily towards professional users, and is not intended for or sold to the consumer market.
