It is a linear system and you can make the same hues with either system. The design goals were different and that it why the look different. The bandwidth doesn't affect the hue. A 90 degree (R-Y)/(B-Y) system produces the same hues as a 90 degree I/Q system.

And, subjectively, again, oranges and thus flesh tones just look richer, backgounds have more saturated colour, whether or not there is a technical basis for that observation. Actually, having accurately rendered green and cyan dark areas is something that very few sets get right, maybe due to chroma-luma gamma tracking, which again seems better with full bandpass demodulation. (and the "I" channel is orange and cyan..) As for background colours, my Samsung plasma TV (PN50C8000) gets it right - as does the Ikegami, I tried a Sony LCD which was way off for background colours, as was my Sony XBR. (but the Sony HX800 was marginally more accurate on flesh tones, even after calibration of the Samsung) The Conrac is better than either Sony set but worse than the Ikegami.

The thing about RCA's auto color that I didn't like was the setting of color level based on average chroma level. This resulted in the color level turning up or down based on scene content, and I often saw obvious failures when the scene cut to talent wearing bright red clothing. It did result in "calendar color" (somewhat oversaturated on low-saturation scenes), which the public seemed to like. I PO'd someone I interviewed with at RCA once when I told him this was not a good idea in my opinion. The hue pulling circuit was invented by my colleague Ted Rzeszewski at Motorola. For some reason, Motorola never used it, but licensed it to RCA. |

I know where one of these is, in Ontario. Or at least where it was.

It is still there, if you are talking about Area 31.

I was wondering the same thing. I haven't heard from him for many years. I know he was having some health problems from a car accident so hopefully he is still doing good.
