YCbCr component video signal used as an input to the Windows Media Encoder follows the SD
color matrix described in Rec. ITU-R BT.601-5.
For clarification the two high definition rates on this disc have been encoded using the SD matrix. This
has been done to provide material compatible with many computer output cards that only decode YCbCr
to RGB following Rec. ITU-R BT.601-5.

definition rates:
•PCI Motherboard: Minimum 800 MHz front side bus/system bus. ASUS solution
supporting SATA hard drives.
•System Memory (RAM): Minimum 1 GB
•Video: AGP nVidia chipset FX900 minimum, 128 MB RAM exactly

There are no SD test materials on this disc as there is no common use of Rec. ITU-R BT.709-4
for encoding such material.

definition signals:
•PCI-E Motherboard: ASUS P5AD2
