Hi:

I. Audio vs. Video

Digitized (mono) audio has a single sample per each sampling
interval.

In the case of digital video, we could treat each individual sample
point location in the sampling grid (each pixel position in a frame)
the same way as if it was a sample from an individual (mono) audio
signal that continues on the same position in the next frame. For
example, a 640×480 pixel video stream shot at 30 fps would be treated
mathematically as if it consisted of 307200 parallel, individual mono
audio streams [channels] at a 30 Hz sample rate. Where does bit-
resolution enter the equation?

Digital linear PCM audio has the following components:

1. Sample rate [44.1 KHz for CD audio]
2. Channels [2 in stereo, 1 in monaural]
3. Bit-resolution [16-bit for CD audio]

Sample rate in audio = frame rate in video
Channel in audio = pixel in video
Bit-resolution in audio = ? in video

Is it true that unlike the-frequency-of-audio, the-frequency-of-video
has two components -- temporal and spatial?

AFAIK, the-frequency-of-audio only has a temporal component. Do I
guess right?

II. Digital vs. Analog

Sample-rate is a digital entity. In a digital audio device, the sample-
rate must be at least 2x the highest intended frequency of the digital
audio signal. What is the analog-equivalent of sample-rate? In an
analog audio device, does this equivalent need to be at least 2x the
highest intended frequency of the analog audio signal? If not, then
what is the minimum frequency that the analog-equivalent-of-sample-
rate must be in relation to the analog audio signal?

III. My Requests:

No offense but please respond with reasonable answers & keep out the
jokes, off-topic nonsense, taunts, insults, and trivializations. I am
really interested in this.


Thanks for your assistance, cooperation, and understanding,
