The ongoing competition between companies and nations to create true HDTV spanned the entire 20th century, as each new system became higher definition than the last. In the early 21st century, this race has continued with <a href="/wiki/4K_resolution" title="4K resolution">4K</a>, <a href="/wiki/5K_resolution" title="5K resolution">5K</a> and <a href="/wiki/8K_resolution" title="8K resolution">8K</a> systems. </p><p>The British high-definition TV service started trials in August 1936 and a regular service on 2 November 1936 using both the (mechanical) Baird 240 line sequential scan (later referred to as <i>progressive</i>) and the (electronic) Marconi-EMI <a href="/wiki/405_line" class="mw-redirect" title="405 line">405 line</a> interlaced systems. The Baird system was discontinued in February 1937.<sup id="cite_ref-since1936_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-since1936-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1938 France followed with its own <a href="/wiki/441-line_television_system" title="441-line television system">441-line</a> system, variants of which were also used by a number of other countries. The US <a href="/wiki/NTSC" title="NTSC">NTSC</a> 525-line system joined in 1941. In 1949 France introduced an even higher-resolution standard at <a href="/wiki/819_line" title="819 line">819 lines</a>, a system that would have been high definition even by modern standards, but was monochrome only and had technical limitations that prevented it from achieving the intended definition. All of these systems used <a href="/wiki/Interlaced_video" title="Interlaced video">interlacing</a> and a 4:3 <a href="/wiki/Aspect_ratio_(image)" title="Aspect ratio (image)">aspect ratio</a> except the 240-line system which was progressive (actually described at the time by the technically correct term <i>sequential</i>) and the 405-line system which started as 5:4 and later changed to 4:3. The 405-line system adopted the (at that time) revolutionary idea of interlaced scanning to overcome the flicker problem of the 240-line with its 25 Hz frame rate. The 240-line system could have doubled its frame rate but this would have meant that the transmitted signal would have doubled in bandwidth, an unacceptable option as the video baseband bandwidth was required to be not more than 3 MHz. </p><p>Color broadcasts started at similar line counts, first with the US NTSC color system in 1953, which was compatible with the earlier monochrome systems and therefore had the same 525 lines per frame. European standards did not follow until the 1960s, when the <a href="/wiki/PAL" title="PAL">PAL</a> and <a href="/wiki/SECAM" title="SECAM">SECAM</a> color systems were added to the monochrome 625-line broadcasts. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/NHK" title="NHK">NHK</a> (Japan Broadcasting Corporation) began researching to "unlock the fundamental mechanism of video and sound interactions with the five human senses" in 1964, after the Tokyo Olympics. NHK set out to create an HDTV system that scored much higher in subjective tests than NTSC's previously dubbed <i>HDTV</i>. This new system, NHK Color, created in 1972, included 1125 lines, a 5:3 (1.67:1) aspect ratio and 60 Hz refresh rate. The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE), headed by Charles Ginsburg, became the testing and study authority for HDTV technology in the international theater. SMPTE would test HDTV systems from different companies from every conceivable perspective, but the problem of combining the different formats plagued the technology for many years. </p><p>There were four major HDTV systems tested by SMPTE in the late 1970s, and in 1979 an SMPTE study group released <i>A Study of High Definition Television Systems</i>: </p> <ul><li>EIA monochrome: 4:3 aspect ratio, 1023 lines, 60 Hz</li> <li>NHK color: 5:3 aspect ratio, 1125 lines, 60 Hz</li> <li>NHK monochrome: 4:3 aspect ratio, 2125 lines, 50 Hz</li> <li>BBC colour: 8:3 aspect ratio, 1501 lines, 60 Hz<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li></ul> <p>Since the formal adoption of Digital Video Broadcasting's (DVB) widescreen HDTV transmission modes in the mid to late 2000s; the 525-line <a href="/wiki/NTSC" title="NTSC">NTSC</a> (and <a href="/wiki/PAL-M" title="PAL-M">PAL-M</a>) systems, as well as the European 625-line <a href="/wiki/PAL" title="PAL">PAL</a> and <a href="/wiki/SECAM" title="SECAM">SECAM</a> systems, have been regarded as <i>standard definition</i> television systems. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Analog_systems">Analog systems</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=High-definition_television&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Analog systems"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Analog_high-definition_television_system" class="mw-redirect" title="Analog high-definition television system">Analog high-definition television system</a></div> <p>Early HDTV broadcasting used <a href="/wiki/Analog_television" title="Analog television">analog</a> technology that was later converted to <a href="/wiki/Digital_television" title="Digital television">digital television</a> with <a href="/wiki/Video_compression" class="mw-redirect" title="Video compression">video compression</a>. </p><p>In 1949, France started its transmissions with an 819 lines system (with 737 active lines).
