resolutions and aspect ratio of video formats and screens

There are quite a few of video formats (standards) that more or less make no sense, here are few examples:

240p, 360p, VGA, NTSC DV, NTSC D1, PAL, 1k Academy, HDTV 720p, HDTV 1080, 2K Academy, 4K Academy

I created a spreadsheet to keep track of the variety.. 





See updated spreadsheet here (access permission needed).

Bottom line is that we now the standard is 1080p and the new standard will be 4K.

My favorite quotations..


“A man should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”  by Robert A. Heinlein
