Foreword
This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) has been produced by the Joint Technical Committee
(JTC) of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), Comité Européen de Normalisation ELECtrotechnique
(CENELEC) and the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI).
NOTE: The EBU/ETSI JTC was established in 1990 to co-ordinate the drafting of ETSs in the
specific field of broadcasting and related fields. Since 1995 the JTC became a tripartite
body by including in the Memorandum of Understanding also CENELEC, which is
responsible for the standardization of radio and television receivers. The EBU is a
professional association of broadcasting organisations whose work includes the
co-ordination of its Members' activities in the technical, legal, programme-making and
programme-exchange domains. The EBU has Active Members in about 60 countries
in the European Broadcasting Area; its headquarters is in Geneva *.

Introduction
For a smooth introduction of new television services with a 16:9 display aspect ratio in PAL and SECAM
standards, it is necessary to signal the aspect ratio used together with some switching information to the
television receiver. The receiver should be capable of reacting automatically to this information by
displaying the video information in a specified aspect ratio. This signalling is to be considered separately
from the type of system used, but it should allow transmission of system related switching information as
well.
This ETS permits the later allocation of additional switching information, related to the introduction of
enhanced television services.
This ETS is applicable for 625-line PAL and SECAM television systems, but there is potential to adopt it to
other standards as well.

1 Scope
This European Telecommunication Standard (ETS) is applicable to 625-line PAL and SECAM systems in
use, in case, where wide screen signalling is required by the broadcasters.
It specifies the wide screen signalling information, the coding and the way of incorporating the coded
information into a 625-line system.
The wide screen signalling information contains information on the aspect ratio range of the transmitted
signal and its position, on the position of the subtitles and on the camera/film mode. Furthermore
signalling for EDTV and for surround sound is included. Some bits are reserved for future use.
This ETS specifies the transmitted signal. Annex A gives the rules of operation for the minimum
requirements for receiver display formats as well as for subtitling.
2 Normative references
This ETS incorporates by dated and undated reference, provisions from other publications. These
normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed
hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications
apply to this ETS only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest
edition of the publication referred to applies.

625-line 50 Hz processing".
