25p

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

25p is a video format which runs twenty-five progressive (hence the "P") frames per second. This framerate is derived from the PAL television standard of 50i (or 50 interlaced frames per second). While 25p captures only half the motion that normal 50i PAL registers, it typically yields a higher image quality because it is progressive-scan. It is also better suited to progressive-scan output (e.g. on LCD displays, computer monitors and projectors) because the interlacing is absent.
