>>BTW this formula is the one the "enforcer of the regulation" uses. <g> FCC? I don't know that for a fact but if you say so it doesn't surprise me. However, originally, I meant "enforcer" as the chief broadcast engineers at the TV stations, particularly those veteran chief engineers that have a tremendous condescending attitude toward everything in the industry. Like the one that rejected my 30 second spot two weeks ago for being off by one scan line of text height in my CG as measured by his WFM. The spec goes by percentage of active picture height and he interpreted this to the number of scan lines. These same BE's are the ones using a VS to enforce the regs not pixel mathematical interpolation. That's who I originally meant as the enforcers. ;^|
