Talk:Kinescope

Worldwide Program Distribution

The reference, in this section of the Kinescope entry, to sending the programs to Australia has an anachronism. The coronation would not have been broadcast on TV, as the first public service happened on 16 September 1956 in Sydney. I suspect a more accurate version would refer to the telerecording being shown as part of Newsreels in cinemas.

The quality issue arising from 405->525->625 line resolution wouldn't arise until four years later.

You write: The newer telecine has replaced the kinescope in the post-production process. How is it possible? Telecine is the divice for transfer image on film into video. But Kinescope transferring from video to film. May be, you mean Film-recorder? Runner1616 (talk) 12:51, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Kinescopes are widespread today

When movies are shot in HD or 4k and released in cinemas on film, isn't this still a kinescope? Functionally it is identical - a video image is converted to film. It's just more scan lines and better quality. Is there another name for this process? I found Film recorder which seems to be the same thing. Algr (talk) 05:48, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

This is now OBE since most movie theaters use digital projection. Kinescopes are specific to broadcast television standards so I assume Film recorder would be the thing to use to print a digital movie to film. ~Kvng (talk) 03:38, 16 January 2026 (UTC)
