Standard Handbook of Video and Television Engineering

by Jerry C. Whitaker

Since its publication in February of 2000, the Standard Handbook of Video and Television Engineering has becomes its field’s standard reference, the one book every engineer and technician in broadcasting needs to own. By carefully tracking the field’s movement from monolithic broadcast stations into a complex web of smaller stations and video producers, this book has stayed relevant while its competition has fallen by the wayside.This new edition features over 50% new material, most crucially multiple chapters on video networking technologies, new digital television and data broadcast standards (for both the US and Europe), and updates on every aspect of video and broadcast equipment and protocols.

The best video reference book out there. This book has helped me solve every single video problem I've encountered while at my day job or working freelance. This book touches on every single aspect of video, production, distribution, standards, codecs, post production, displays, and maintenance. A very expensive book, but worth every penny in my opinion.
