The idea was that all countries could choose a timezone (which may be different to the current one), e.g. Spain could choose UTC, UTC+1 or UTC+2 (or indeed split into UTC-1, UTC and UTC+1 depending where), but it wouldn't be able to ch

Analog didn't have an "XxY" resolution. VHS was about 3MHz of luma resolution and 400Khz of chroma, which was 240 lines - but that was interlaced, so your actual vertical resolution was 480 lines per interlaced frame (30 per
