Broadcasting on TV
National Television Standards Committee (NTSC) and Phase Alternating Line (PAL) are formats for videos. The differences between these two formats are the reason why some DVDs from Europe may not play in Japan and in other countries as well. Most of the times, this is not a big issue, because the video we send to the client will be played on a computer or uploaded on the Internet; however, it is good to know that Lumion provides us with this possibility to create a movie using either the NTSC or PAL format. Let's see how we can do that.
Getting ready
We need a simple clip in order to apply the effects and see the differences between each format.
How to do it…
To add the PAL or NTSC option to the video file, perform the following steps:
- Open the Movie mode and click on the New effect button to open the Movie effect library.
- In the Artistic tab, you can find the Broadcast safe effect.
- Select this effect and you will notice that the effect is applied not to your clip...
