4、e double-stimulus continuous quality-scale method is recommended for both kinds of assessments (enhanced and compatiblepictures) (see Recommendation ITU-R BT.500).As a reference it is recommended to use: a 4:2:2 picture with an aspect ratio of 16:9 for the enhanced picture; a full-screen PAL or SECA

5、M picture for the compatible picture, if necessary produced by a pan-and-scantechnique.Test sequences should be critical but not unduly so with respect to the intended enhancements and possibledegradations mentioned above. The increasing use of computer graphics and video effects should also be take

Still and moving picture sequences are required;2. that for the evaluation of failure characteristics, echo behaviour and interference behaviour, the dou

It is recommended to use the source references as in 1 above;3. that, for subjective assessments, the general viewing conditions be as given in Recommendation IT

12、levision systems, applying the assessment methodology described inRecommendation ITU-R BT.500, requires that particular attention be paid to the following items (among others): choice and display of the reference to assess the basic quality of the enhanced system under evaluation; choice and display

13、 of the reference to assess the quality if the compatible picture is viewed with a conven-tional television system (different aspect ratio, etc.).For enhanced systems with a 16:9 aspect ratio, assessment of the compatible picture, usually with a letter-boxpresentation, implies comparison against a r

14、eference signal with a 4:3 aspect ratio. The comparison of signals withdifferent aspect ratios requires special measures; the assessment should use the same 4:3 display and the samepresentation arrangement.Two possible alternative arrangements may be considered: presentation of the compatible pictur

15、e on a 4:3 display in letter-box format and of the reference 16:9source on a 4:3 display in letter-box format by anamorphic scan conversion to letter-box form; or presentation of the compatible picture on a 4:3 display with the side panels eliminated and the imagemagnified to the full height of the screen and of the reference 16:9 source on a 4:3 display in full heightby eliminating the side panels and displaying in normal height.In both cases, two 4:3 monitors with different vertical scanning are needed. Therefore, extreme care should beexercised in matching the two monitors._
