Abstract
A method of reformatting color television signals is disclosed whereby chrominance and luminance components are serially arranged on a line by line basis with minimal compression of the luminance and chrominance components. This reduced compression serial arrangement is made possible by a truncation process whereby unnecessary information is eliminated from the television signal. Specifically, since a normal television picture tube overscans, the edges of the picture are never displayed and need not be transmitted or recorded. By eliminating this unnecessary information the signals can be serially combined within the time limits inherent in standard signals.
