I'm working on a training document.
I looked up the PBS broadcast spec and supposedly you need to "protect" an area between lines 459 and 541 vertically and between 21 and 24.5 microseconds horizontally.
So, between lines 459 and 541 seems about right (maybe a little low) but when I measure 21 to 24.5 microseconds, I get an area that's just right of the center of the screen. That can't be right, right? It seems it's about 2/3rds over to the right.
I would expect it to be all the way over near right title safe. Even if you figure the bug sits in 4:3 title safe inside 16:9 raster, that seems too far over.
Without having to look up all the other broadcaster's docs, can someone else off the top of their head, give me the protected area for broadcast BUGS in milliseconds?
This is for a training project, so I need to know the milliseconds. I don't need a Photoshop template with the BUG area blocked off on it. I want to find the exact location on a waveform monitor.
Does the PBS spec that I pulled from their TOC sound right?
Another related question - isn't disclaimer type usually spec'ed at 9 vertical lines tall? Anybody else have any real broadcast specs for disclaimer type?
