Abstract
To prevent cutting lines and overlap of frames upon reproduction of standard motion-picture film, in which the motion-picture film is scanned and the scanned signals are recorded in a store (16), the store is divided into storage blocks, each capable of storing 36 lines, addressing of the respective storage blocks such that two times seven or two times five storage blocks are utilized for storing of the frames, the sequence of the blocks with respect to the scanned lines changing from film frame to film frame, with the sequence repeating every four frames.
