MXOMF_TVSTND type

 

 Enun command or signal of "Television Standard"

 Used both globally and for specific items

 

 CAUTION

 

 This value signals ONLY that a give TV standard is in effect.

 This implies the TV Standard's "count modulus", ie:

 PAL == 0-24, NTSC == 0-29, FILM == 0-23,

 

 It does NOT signal "count mode" - ie: Non-Drop Frame or Drop Frame.

 Drop-frame count mode is legal only for MXOMF_TVSTND_NTSC.

 See MX_TCT_XXX for more info

 

 It does NOT signal the frame rate!

 "Frame rate" is typically thought of as frames-per-second  ie:

 PAL == 25, NTSC == 30, FILM == 24. But this casual usage of the term

 is not wholly accurate: "fps" is not nessasarily the true "frame rate".

 True "frames rates" (frames per *true* second) are -

 NTSC - 30000/1001 (Danger - this is only *approximately* 29.97)

 PAL - 25/1

 FILM (and 24p) at true 24 - 24/1

 FILM (and 24p) at NTSC rate - 24000/1001 (Danger - this is only

*approximately* 23.98)
