It is therefore important that the benefits and limitations of the various options are fully understood.

This document aims to provide, in a clear and unbiased manner, a set of guidelines which will enable live audio-visual events to be prepared, transmitted, received and presented into cinemas that comply with the relevant international standards for motion picture replay, whilst at the same time avoiding the risk and expense of reconfiguring established television broadcast infrastructures.
