How video formats are expressed

With the exception of NTSC and PAL, all SD and HD video formats are
expressed in the Matrox MXO2 documentation as follows:
VRp or i or PsF @ n fps
Where:
• VR is the vertical resolution. For 1440×1080 video, however, both the
horizontal and vertical resolutions are specified.
• p or i or PsF represents progressive, interlaced, or progressive segmented
frame video.
• n fps is the frame rate in frames per second.
Here are some examples:
• 486p @ 23.98 fps Represents 720 ×486 progressive video at 23.98 frames
per second.
• 720p @ 59.94 fps Represents 1280×720 progressive video at 59.94
frames per second.
• 1440x1080i @ 29.97 fps Represents 1440 ×1080 interlaced video at 29.97
frames per second. This format is used for HDV 1080i material.
• 1080i @ 29.97 fps Represents full-size 1920 ×1080 interlaced video at
29.97 frames per second.
