Introduction
HDV:
HDV is a high-definition variation of the DV video encoding specification that uses MPEG-2 compression to achieve the same data rate as the DV, DVCAM, and DVCPRO video encoding specifications. HDV video can be captured in 720p, 1080i, and 1080p.
HDV also refers to video tape recorders and DV and MiniDV videocassettes that are designed to support the HDV video specification.

"HDV is a high-definition video format encoded on a DV cassette. HDV was introduced in 2003 through a partnership of Sony, Canon, JVC, and Sharp ("HDV" is a joint trademark of Sony and JVC). Most HDV camcorders use small MiniDV-sized cassettes, but HDV come in both large and small cassette profiles. The primary difference between the two is simply the recording time. The more significant division among HDV is between resolution and scanning type: HDV 720p (progressive scan) and HDV 1080i (interlaced). Since about 2006, support for HDV has progressively receded."
