High-definition television - Australia.
Main article: High definition television in Australia
Australia started HD broadcasting in January 2001 but only in August 2003 was HD content mandated. Most cities in Australia that have a population of 40,000 or greater have at least one terrestrial DTV channel available (for example, Albany, Western Australia, has had DTV available for almost a year as of May, 2005). However, most Australian DTV broadcasters are still experimenting with HDTV transmission and DTV delivery ...

| | | | | Definitions: Encyclopedia II - High-definition television - Comparison to SDTV HDTV has at least twice the resolution of SDTV, thus allowing much more detail to be shown compared to analog television or regular DVD. In addition, the technical standards for broadcasting HDTV are also able to handle 16:9 aspect ratio pictures without using letterboxing, thus further increasing the effective resolution for such content.

| | | | | Definitions: Encyclopedia II - High-definition television - Format considerations The optimum format for a broadcast depends on the type of media used for the recording and the characteristics of the content. The field and frame rate should match the source, as should the resolution. On the other hand, a very high resolution may require more bandwidth than is available. The lossy compression that is used in all digital HDTV systems will then cause the picture to be distorted.

High-definition television - SECAM 755i.
When Europe resumed TV transmissions after WWII, i.e. in the late 1940s and early 1950s, different countries used different resolutions. The UK used 405 lines, most other countries 625 lines, but France decided in 1948 to go for 819 lines. The French TV system thus became the world's first HDTV system, and by today's standards, the French system could be called 755i (not all lines could be used for the actual image — some lines were lost during the vertical retrace). The ...

| | | | | Definitions: Encyclopedia II - High-definition television - Recording compression and prerecorded media HDTV can be recorded to D-VHS (Data-VHS), W-VHS, to an HDTV-capable digital video recorder such as DirecTV's high-definition TiVo or Dish Network's DVR 921 or 942, or to a computer equipped with an HDTV capture card. In the U.S., the only current archival option is D-VHS. D-VHS digitally records a 28.2 Mbit stream onto a classic VHS tape, using a FireWire (IEEE 1394) digital transport to carry a compressed MPEG-2 Transport Stream from the tuning device to the recorder.

Although MPEG-2 supports up to 4:2:2 YUV chroma subsampling and 10-bit quantization, HD broadcasts use 4:2:0 and 8-bit quantization to save bandwidth. Some broadcasters also plan to use MPEG-4.
HDTV is capable of "theater quality" audio because it uses the Dolby Digital (AC-3) format to support "5.1" surround sound.

| | | | | | Definitions: Encyclopedia II - Classical definition of effeminacy - St Thomas Aquinas In Question 138, St. Thomas Aquinas delves more deeply into the connotations of the word effeminate. "The Philosopher" that he refers here to is Aristotle.
Whether effeminacy* is opposed to perseverance? [Mollities, literally 'softness']
Objection 1. It seems that effeminacy is not opposed to perseverance. For a gloss on 1 Cor. 6:9,10, "Nor adulterers, nor the effeminate, nor liers with mankind," expounds the text thus: "Effeminate--i.e. obscene, given to unnatural vice." But this is opposed ...

| | | | | | Definitions: Encyclopedia II - Document Type Definition - DTD criticisms and alternatives While DTD support in XML tools is widespread due to its inclusion in the XML 1.0 standard, it is seen as limited for the following reasons:
No support for newer features of XML — most importantly, namespaces.
Lack of expressivity. Certain formal aspects of an XML document cannot be captured in a DTD.
Custom non-XML syntax to describe the schema, inherited from SGML.
Three newer XML schema languages that are much more powerful are increasingly favored over DTDs:
