Skip field
In video, skip field[1] recording is a process in which only one field (one half of a frame) of video is recorded in order to conserve recording media space.[2] In some cases, the quality loss from not using both fields is negligible, although it leads to a reduction in vertical and temporal resolution.[3] It was a common method used in early telerecording systems, as well as early and current non-professional/industrial videotape formats such as CV-2000, Cartrivision and V-Cord.
