7.1 Image Quality and Data Rates
Preserving image quality is probably the most important feature TARGA 3000. By processing all video in
uncompressed mode, there is no loss of visual information. If that wasn't enough, the 3000 can capture and
process RGBA (4:4:4:4), creating video streams over 40 MBps in bandwidth, which can in this case exceed
144 MBps during real-time transitions. All this is supported by the system's audio-video hard drive
subsystem, and it's ability to provide data at a predictable pace. Consequently, we recommend the latest
technology in data-delivery, whose advances will no doubt outpace the frequency which this cookbook will
be updated.
