How to make your video look like SH*T, because it is sh!t:
Footage: The Original Gundam Series.
Media... DVD? SVCD? VCD? LD? VHS? Academy 35?
One word:
BETAMAX

TV stations still use Betamax for delayed broadcast's - its that clean ^_^
if it wasn't for the Gamble that VHS distributors took in the 1980's, by dropping the price of Blank Video Tapes to 1/3 the price of Beta's, we would still be using Beta's in the home - today!

they are - and have already been going digital for quite some time now ^^
1) 10 second drop-line/frame rebuild calculator [ fully digital and running 24/7 ]
2) Automated Commercail Controllers [ no one needs to be at the station ]
3) Automated and Manual U-matic Controllers for Editing ( U-matic is Beta )
if you mean, by the name Digital, HDTV; that is not a problem for Beta's of today either!
[ its VHS and Reel2Reel VCR's that can not handle those signals ]
. . although editing HDTV films are a little too tricky for College Grad's it is and can be learned in time ^^
Bandwidth:
a) FCC Regulations allow up to 8 meg of a signal over standard TV Relay's.
b) the average VHS unit has a limitation about 5.8 megahurtz T_T
c) Sattillite has a 38 meg limit.
d) U-matic and Beta have no problems with 28 - 34 meg.
e) HDTV requires 24 - 26 megahurtz
soo . . reguardless if the TV Station can handle HDTV, FCC Regulations and the common VHS tape machines can not handle them!
as one of the WCTA TV 7 - KidsWB TV and relay Engineer's, I should have an idea of what the equipment is capable of ^^ don't you think ? ^^
