High quality at low price. A high quality planetary scanner at a low price or cheaper does not mean worse. There are other Rip formats for illegally copying videos

When looking at movies online, you will see many different abbreviations in the titles. Many simply do not pay attention to them, but in vain. These abbreviations can tell you a lot about the picture quality of a film. Let's look at the decoding of these inscriptions in ascending order.

Low quality

CAMRip

CAMRip or – as the title suggests, this video was made regular camera from the screen in a cinema. Often, the video image in this case leaves much to be desired. When watching, you can hear laughter and comments in the hall, see the heads of people who enter the cinema hall. This is due to the fact that such a video is filmed in the first days of rental with a small video camera installed next to one of the viewers. To make it clearer, go to the cinema and shoot a video on your smartphone, and you will get CamRIP.

T.S.

Next comes T.S.(TeleSync). This is the same screen, but the shooting principle is slightly different. In this case the picture a little better, since it is used professional digital camera that stands in an empty hall. In this case, the sound is recorded directly from the broadcasting equipment. Stereo sound is most often used.

VHS-Rip

Video VHS-Rip, as the name implies – recorded with videotapes. Often, when viewing, artifacts, stripes, and dots are visible. It all depends on the safety of the cassette from which the rip was made.

W.P.

Quality W.P. is quite rare.

- essentially a stolen version of the film that was stolen from the film studio. This is a draft and may differ from what appears on screen. There is a timer here, which is used for video editing and other inscriptions. A leak

material can happen not only at a film studio, it happens that copies of films that were intended for critics and other people associated with the film industry end up on the network.

SCR Or SCR videotapes– rip with , intended for review by critics. Quality

, most often decent, but the video contains watermarks, captions and warnings about the illegal distribution of the material.

DVDScr Another option DVDScr Or- the same as , but applies to DVD

. The picture may be good, but spoiled by watermarks.

TC The next format is TC professional equipment - film scanner or recorded directly from the projector. Characterized by good sound And quality, although the latter largely depends on the equipment.

Average to good quality

LDRip

SCR LDRip– now practically never occurs. This is a copy made from laser disk.

TV-Rip

Material recorded from TV called TV-Rip. The picture directly depends on the quality of the source material; TV channel logos are often present. The image is inferior to DVD Rip, although it should be identical.

Sat Rip, DVB Rip, DTV Rip

Formats similar to TV Rip:

  • SatRip– recorded from satellite
  • DVBRip– recording from digital TV
  • DTV Rip– digital IPTV

The quality, as in the previous case, largely depends on the source material from which the recording was made.

PDTV

Format PDTV- translated as pure digital television(). This is a cross between HDTV and regular cable TV.

For recording PDTVRip use special equipment or a regular TV tuner. Most often channel logos are present, although not always. The quality can rival DVD-Rip.

DVDRip

DVDRip– boasts the best quality of the above. This is a rip of the usual DVD disc . To be fair, it is worth noting that the quality will also depend on the professionalism of the ripper. The sound can be either stereo or 5-6 channel. Most often the size is standard - 2.18 GB, 1.46 GB or 745 MB.

DVD

DVD– a complete digital copy of the disc. Currently it is losing its popularity and losing ground to HD-DVD and Blu-Ray. In the case of such a rip, it is done copy structures: AUDIO_TS for audio tracks and VIDEO_TS for video. Exists several types DVD:


DVD Custom

Rip format DVDCustom– disk created on one's own. Such discs are created by professionals and amateurs, but are never published. This also includes DVDs that have been re-assembled: i.e. credits, bonuses or other materials have been removed from the disc.

Great quality

HDRip

Quality HDRip– obtained from any source high definition starting from 720p. This does not include rip from HDTV or any other unknown source. The picture is better than DVDRip.

HDTVRip

Rip made from satellite HDTV broadcasts in HD format are called HDTVRip

Quality is obtained by compression WEB-DL to save space. Sometimes the video is compressed to FullHD and HD, but often SD is used.

HD DVDRip

Like the previous format, HD DVDRip compressed from HDDVD, but the quality SD is quite rare. Usually use HD 1080p and 720p.

BDRip

This format is obtained by compressing the original with BluRay or BDRemux. Usually compressed into HD, less often in SD. However, the quality is slightly worse than the original.

Best quality

HDTV

HDTV– the worst of the high definition formats. As the name implies, this is television broadcast in high definition. Most often, color rendition suffers and artifacts due to the quality of signal transmission occur. However, HDTV can provide a better picture than DVD.

WEB-DL

Format WebD.L. broadcast over the Internet and also has better quality than HDTV. However, there are no channel icons or logos. There is one drawback - such broadcasts most often paid.

HD DVD Remux

By rebuilding HDDVD video without compression into TS or MKV, you get HD DVDRemux. We often receive videos of excellent quality, but with cut out additional materials, subtitles, etc.

HD DVD

Rarely used format. Couldn't compete with Blu-Ray. HD DVD implies a complete copy of the disc, with an excellent 1920x1080 picture.

BDRemux

If you rebuild the Blu-Ray container into ts or mkv format, you will get BDRemux. An ideal picture, without loss of quality, but without additional materials from the disk.

Blu-ray Disc, BD

Blu-Ray discs have increased track density, which allows you to record high-definition video on them FullHD 1080 p. The format involves making a complete copy of such a disk.

Additional designations

In addition to the above, there are several more designations that do not relate to image quality.

W.S. or WideScreen- literally translated as widescreen video.

LB or LetterBox- video format 4:3, which contains a widescreen image.

FS or FullScreen- full screen video in 4:3 format.

Proper- the image has a better picture than the previous one.

SiteRip- as the name implies, this includes videos downloaded from sites, often paid.

Film publishing

Theatrical Cut, The next format is- version for cinemas and broadcasts.

Extended Cut, E.C.- video with additional scenes that were cut for the theatrical version (scenes of violence, 18+, etc.).

Director's Cut, DC- this version allows you to see the director’s entire idea, which is why it is called the director’s cut. Scenes from the theatrical version may be changed here, as well as episodes that were removed by the producers may be added in order to increase the ratings of the film.

Special Edition, S.E.- usually similar to the gift version. A special edition that may contain bonuses, alternative endings, materials. In addition, the disc itself can be sold in special packaging and with some accessories.

Technical progress due to the release of new, more advanced devices for scanning flat and three-dimensional objects is changing established ways of working in printing, document management, design and other related areas. Convenience and high performance are their distinctive features. Such devices use a different scanning method and are called planetary scanners.

Two questions are important for the customer:

1. Does it make sense to use a planetary scanner instead of a traditional flatbed scanner?
2. Selecting the most suitable model.

The disadvantage of a planetary scanner is the price. Otherwise, it has significant advantages, one of which is the ability to scan large objects that are not possible with traditional lid scanners.

Single cycle speed indicator is significantly higher than the same indicator flatbed scanner. The device processes 90 A4 pages per minute, regardless of the complexity of the object being scanned. This is significantly faster than old lamp scanners, for which the digitization time at best can be 4 seconds per page, but in practice - all 20.

One of its main advantages is its compactness. The body of the model is elongated and easy to move. Since nutrition comes from USB port, you can take the device with you on a business trip or to a meeting with a customer. But the main thing is a convenient workflow that does not require unnecessary manipulations, such as opening and closing the lid, careful positioning and dividing a non-standard original into parts, especially if it is fragile and valuable, such as a rare antique tome.

This scanner will optimal solution for production organizations or offices with high document flow intensity. For museums, antique salons and all kinds of archival organizations, a planetary scanner will be the only opportunity for inexpensive creation of digital copies.
To date the lineup There is not a lot of variety of such devices at an adequate price. Today in Moscow you can buy the following models:

These popular planetary scanners are produced by two companies: E-Loam, which is an Asian brand, and Austrian-made Sceye, the second brand is promoted by Kodak.
The official supplier of this equipment in Russia is the NStor company, website http://www.quickscan.ru.
The two models most in demand on the Russian market are e-Loam S500A and Sceye X A4 LED.

Dimensions and weight are almost the same:

Sceye X A4 LED (36 cm x 12 cm x 10 cm, weight 700 grams)
e-Loam S500A (41 cm x 10 cm x 9 cm, weight 800 grams)

Both models have an A4 scanning format, are equipped with backlighting, and are identically equipped: mat, USB cable, software.
The scanning speed of each model is 20 copies per second. It should also be noted that the software of these scanners significantly improves the original images.

The difference in the digitized image is almost unnoticeable. Any documents after recognition will be absolutely identical
For 99% of office tasks, the e-Loam S500A scanner (200 dpi) is sufficient, however, if you use professional printing equipment and you will need to print images very High Quality(photo), your choice is Sceye X A4 LED (300 dpi).

Best quality video formats

Video (video - I see, I look) is the conversion of an image by a recording device into a sequence of electrical signals recorded on a storage device (storage device) of information. Also, video is a huge variety of technologies for recording, processing, transmitting, storing and playing visual or audiovisual material (cinema, films, videos, music, videos, etc.). Video differs from film and cinematography only in that it uses any other medium for playback and recording other than film, although the modern development of digital technologies for filming and digital film projectors is finally erasing the line between video, films and cinema. The video format determines the structure of the video file, how the file will be stored on a storage medium (CD, DVD, Blu-ray Disc, flash memory cards, hard drives or communication channels). Typically, different video formats have different file extensions (*.avi; *.mpg; *.ts; *.mov; *.mkv; *.3gp, etc.).

The best video of the highest quality today is HDTV (English High-Definition Television) - high-definition television, high-definition television. HD – video format high resolution, a modern format with exceptional image clarity.

The most popular high-definition HD video formats:

1) 720p– 1280×720 pixels (dots), progressive scan (interlaced scanning, all lines of each frame are displayed sequentially), aspect ratio 16:9, frequency – 24, 25, 30, 50 or 60 frames per second;

2) 1080i– 1920x1080 pixels, interlaced scanning (each frame is divided into two half-frames, consisting of lines selected every other line, 2 times the frame rate compared to progressive scanning), aspect ratio 16:9, frequency - 50 or 60 fields per second;

3) 1080p– 1920x1080 pixels, progressive scan, aspect ratio 16:9, frequency - 24, 25 or 30 frames per second.

What is the difference between 1080i and 1080p?

Each of these video formats uses different way turning a series of static images into a moving picture. In interlaced scanning (the "i" symbol), a still image or "frame" is reproduced by scanning 2 sets of alternating lines or "fields" (half-frames). With progressive scanning (symbol “p”), a frame is created in just one pass (scanning). That is, if image scanning in both video formats (“i” and “p”) is carried out at the same speed, which means an equal number of scans occur per second, then the advantage progressive scan(“p”) becomes obvious (picture quality is better), because the entire image (frame) is scanned, and not half the image (field). This progressive scan (“p”) outputs fewer dots and lines, but the speed is doubled.

Conclusion: Images in both video formats, 1080i and 1080p, look better under different conditions. The 1080i video format is designed to reproduce fine details in a picture with slight movement or in still frames and images. This video format is much better suited for "spatial resolution". 1080i video works fine as long as there is no frame movement. When objects begin to move, the trajectory of movement between alternating fields (half-frames) begins to change. These are called "motion artifacts", i.e. Image noise or visible distortion in the video, resembling a aliasing pattern. 1080i video quality is considered outdated.

1080p video quality has an advantage in motion. It does not introduce visible distortions into the picture, regardless of the speed of moving objects, and therefore has better “time resolution”. However, when you freeze the image, still frames won't look very clear because 1080p video has far fewer dots and lines than 1080i.

Transmission of high-definition television HDTV video signals over long distances (satellite television - S2, cable TV), usually produced using compression techniques to reduce the data bandwidth requirements (from 1.485 Gbps to 8-25 Mbps), while maintaining good video quality.

To encode the video signal, the best video formats used today are MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H.264 or AVC (video compression standards (codecs) that are designed to achieve a high degree of video signal compression while maintaining high quality).

HDTV video signal transmission over a short distance (from the user's tuner (receiver) to the monitor (TV)) is carried out in its original (uncompressed) form via HDMI and DVI-D digital cables. Using digital interfaces (cables) completely avoids video compression and conversion and preserves the best image possible.

Digital video quality is a measurement of signal to noise ratio. What is the best video quality and movie quality, and which one can be downloaded from the Internet? Well, first of all, it should be said that the main requirement for formats for the Internet is compactness. It is clear that the DVD or HDTV format will not work. But almost any video shot on a mobile phone or digital camera meets the requirements of the Internet. And the question arises, what is the optimal and best video quality with maximum compression for ease of downloading from the Internet, and what are the designations for movie formats?

Many Internet users confuse the best quality of HDTV movies with the HDTV-Rip video ripping method. HDTV-Rip is copying video from a broadcast source of high-definition video (movies) - HDTV. This is feasible using various codecs and compression methods. As a result, HDTV-Rip movies may not be of the highest HD quality. Rip video broadcasts from an HDTV channel, can come with the channel logo. Also, do not confuse HD video with HDTV high definition video format.

There are other Rip formats for illegally copying videos:

Format CAM or CAMRip– this is an extremely low quality of sound and video taken from a video camera in the cinema hall (usually on the days of the premiere), the so-called “screen”.

Telesync (TS)– video is recorded from the screen, usually with a professional (digital) camera mounted on a tripod in an empty theater or in the operator’s cabin. Sound is recorded in stereo, usually directly from the audio source. The video quality is not the best, but it is much better than CAMRip.

Telecine (TC)– a copy of the video is made from film, using special equipment. The film is recorded from a projector by cinema staff with outputs for audio and video. Before DVD this technology gave the best video quality available.

DVD-Rip (DVDRip) is a Rip from a licensed DVD, compressed into MPEG4 (mp4) format to reduce the size of the film. Sometimes versions with better picture quality are designated as SuperDVD, HQ DVD (Highest Quality DVD Video).

HD-DVD-Rip (HDDVDRip, HDDVD-Rip, HDDVD)– Rip from HD-DVD disc (from 15 GB per layer). Refers to the HDTV format. The quality format is obsolete, discontinued and replaced with a new format optical drive Blu-ray Disc (English: blue ray - blue ray and disc - disk).

BD-Rip (BDRip, BRRip, BR-Rip) is a Rip recorded from a Blu-Ray DVD disc (from 25 GB per layer). Applies to HDTV. Real BDRip movies have much better quality than DVDRip. The size of the allowed movie is 9.5 GB. Often the designation indicates the size of the image in pixels. For example, BDRip.720p BD-Rip.1080p. Sometimes there are copies from the DVD format with an enlarged picture and the incorrect BDRip designation. Blu-ray (“blue ray”) is an optical media format used for high-density recording and storage of digital data, including HDTV high-definition video, getting its name from the use of short-wave (405 nm) “blue” (technically) for writing and reading blue-violet) laser. The letter "e" was deliberately removed from the word "blue" in order to register a trademark, since the expression "blue ray" is a commonly used expression and cannot be registered as a trademark.

Best quality video formats. Video Resolution:

Mobile- this video was created for mobile devices; Typically, the resolution ranges from 320x240 to 640x480 pixels.

Standard Definition (SD)- Standard definition video, 525-625 lines.

High Definition (HD)-video standard with video resolution corresponding to high definition television:

HD-720– video standard with a resolution from 1280×528 pixels to 1280×720, sometimes the entire range of WXGA resolutions.

HD-1080– video standard with a resolution from 1440×1080 to 1920×1080 pix.

i- (Interlace) – Interlaced scanning.

p- (Progressive) — Progressive scanning.

What video extensions are there?

AVI (Audio-Video Interleaved) is an extension of a huge number of video files, a video file format introduced by Microsoft Corporation for the use of video systems in operating system Windows. The file format with the .avi extension is known as a media container and is a file format just like MP3 or JPG. This is a RIFF media container developed by Microsoft that can store 4 types of streams - video, audio, text and midi. This video container can contain video of any format (MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, and MPEG-7), music of different formats, possibly any combination of codecs. So, if MP3 and JPG files are built on using only the main type of data compression (MPEG Audio Layer 3 and JPEG), an AVI file can contain different kinds compressed data (for example, DivX - video + WMA - audio or Indeo - video + PCM - audio), depending on which codec is used for encoding or decoding. Just like DVD AVI files support multi-stream audio-video. AVI files can contain different types of compressed data, such as DivX for video and MP3 for audio.

WMV ( Windows Media Video) is a format from Microsoft, in which you will receive a video made using Movie Maker.

MOV- Apple Macintosh QuickTime format; in addition to video, it can also contain graphics, animation, and 3D. Most often, QuickTime Player is needed to play this format.

MKV— (Matryoshka or Matroska) is also a video container that can contain video, audio, subtitles, menus, etc. Has open source, is not yet very common, but very promising.

3gp— video for mobile phones third generation, are small in size and low quality.

Video formats used on the Internet:

FLV (Flash Video)- a video format for posting and transmission on the Internet, used by such platforms for posting video clips as YouTube, RuTube, Tube.BY, Google Video, Movie and many others.

SWF ( Shockwave Flash) is an extension of the animation created in the program Adobe Flash, as well as video in flash format, played by browsers using Flash Player. Flash movies are also widely distributed on the Internet.

RM, RA, RAM— extensions of the RealVideo format from RealNetworks, which is used for television broadcasting on the Internet. It has a small file size and low quality, but allows you to watch, for example, a TV news release on the website of a certain television company.

Video extensions associated with the DVD format:

VOB (Versioned Object Base) is an extension of a media container that can contain multiple video (MPEG-2 format) and audio streams, as well as movie menus and subtitles. These are the main files on a movie DVD.

IFO- files on a DVD disc containing information about the film, menu, order of launching VOB files, necessary, for example, for a DVD player, i.e. service files. Created during the conversion or authoring process, i.e. burning a DVD.

m2v, m2p— expanding video in MPEG-2 format, creating VOB files and burning DVDs. Plays Real Networks RealPlayer and Microsoft Windows Media Player.

Additional terms and other video formats with different movie qualities:

PS: Pan and Scan- These are films made to test the audience's reaction. They are shown on a square screen. If this movie is re-recorded for viewing at home, then the quality of the video format must also be altered. Most US television films made after 1955 were recorded in an aspect ratio of 1.85:1 (European ones were recorded in a ratio of 1.66:1). Although the exception is a special format for anamorphic lenses - Cinemascope (2.35:1). A standard TV has an aspect ratio of 1.33:1, i.e. If you convert it to a video format, you need to reduce the image size. This is done as follows: the video is trimmed in width (on both sides). If you purchased a DVD and there is no “Original film format” marking, then you can assume that the movie was cut using the Pan and Scan method. If you want the entire movie, you should buy a DVD marked “Widescreen”.

Dubbed: the original sound was cut out and replaced (Example: an audio track from a Russian cinema was superimposed on the North American release of the film).

Line Dubbed: (same as Dubbed), except that the sound was taken from the “chair” (headphone jack in a movie theater chair) or “projector” (Line).

Mic Dubbed: the same as Dubbed, only the sound was recorded through a microphone in the cinema.

Straight To Video (STV): - the film was released immediately on DVD or VHS - cassette without showing in cinemas, the quality of the video format is DVDrip or VHSrip, respectively.

Other video format abbreviations:

Subbed: movie with subtitles;

W.S.: Widescreen;

LETTERBOX: another term for Widescreen;

UNCUT, UNRATED: uncensored version;

THEATRICAL: release of a film specifically for showing in cinemas;

LIMITED: the film was shown in more than 500 cinema halls;

DC: "Director's Cut" Director's Cut - a release of a film that differs from its theatrical release;

S.E.: “Special Edition” Special edition of the film;

FS: Fullscreen, full-screen video format;

PROPER: Remastered release of the film, i.e. the previous version of this TV movie was of much lower quality;

RECODE: release of a film remade into another format or re-encoded;

DUPE: a dupe is a video release that was released second after the original (duplicate), but not stolen (STOLEN), but simply taken from another video source (saplayer);

REMASTERED: studio replacement of video and/or audio quality was carried out on specialized computer equipment;

RETAIL: official release, indicated when the previous version was from an illegal video source and of poor quality;

WATERMARKED: contains small logos of a television channel or releaser (copywriter);

RERIP: new rewritten video release.

Description of video formats and properties of various translations:

Dubbed translation (dubbing): prof. multi-voice (usually more than 10-15 understudies), with no unique voices in the background. If the original voices can be heard in the background, even just slightly, this is no longer considered a dubbed translation, but a voice-over translation. Dubbed translation is a tough and very expensive job. It may take weeks and months to complete it, because... it is necessary that the voice of the understudy significantly matches the original in temperament, in timbre, when the re-recorded text is brought into line with the movement of the character’s lips, etc. Great similarities can be found only in high-quality dubbings, usually in the best-selling films (bestsellers).

Multi-voice voiceover– multi-voice (3-5 voices) voice-over translation, in which, unlike a dubbed translation, you can hear unique voices (primary sources). Typically, the function of an understudy who participates in the dubbing of a film is not to obscure the original voice, but simply to translate the text into Russian. A translation can be of either professional or amateur quality, although the border between them is very narrow.

Single-voice voiceover– translation carried out by one person for all voices (usually a man). Such translations into Russian are especially familiar to fans of VHS videos from the 80s and 90s. Later known and having their own original feature.

Additional information about single-voice voiceover:

Studio "Full Pe" – translations of Goblin into Russian without changes, preserving the meaning of the film. They differ in censorship and compliance with the unique text of the film. Indecent language, if present in the original, is translated as indecent language. If there is no swearing in the original, then there will be no swearing in Goblin’s translation.

Studio "God's Spark" - funny translations of Goblin, often with elements of obscene language. Parodies of Russian video translations performed by Dmitry Puchkov - Goblin, often changing the meaning and plot of the film.

    What is the best quality for videos and films? What video formats are there?

    The best quality of video formats Video (video - I see, I look) is the conversion of an image by a recording device into a sequence of electrical signals recorded on a storage device (drive) of information. Also, video is a huge variety of technologies for recording, processing, transmitting, storing and playing visual or audiovisual material (cinema, films, videos, music, videos, etc.). Video is different from film and cinematography...
