The High Definition Television is the successor to the former Standard Definition Television or SDTV. Standard Definition Television was the prevailing standard of television display and broadcasting in the last decades of the 20th century.<\/p>\n
The Standard Definition Television or SDTV was compatible with the analog broadcasting channels and technology which was the norm for television broadcasting in that time period. Standard Definition Television primarily depended upon two main types of picture formats. <\/p>\n
These were the picture formats 480i or 576i. The 576i picture format of Standard Definition Television relied upon the sequential color with memory or SECAM analog system and Phase Alternating Line (PAL) analog system. On the other hand, the 480i picture format of the Standard Definition Television (SDTV) relied upon the NTSC or National Television System Committee analog system primarily in use in North America.<\/p>\n
