Glossary
Progressive format
Compared to the Interlace format that alternately
shows every other line of an image (field) to create one
frame, the Progressive format shows the entire image
at once as a single frame. This means that while the
Interlace format can show 30 frames/60 fields in one
second, the Progressive format can show 60 frames in
one second. The overall picture quality increases and
still images, text, and horizontal lines appear sharper.
