'''Pro'''cessing '''amp'''lifier, commonly called '''Proc Amp''', is used to clean [[video]] signal components in [[real time]]. Proc Amps can be used for processing [[standard definition]] 525/30 ([[NTSC]]) 625/25 ([[Pal]]) or [[high definition]] video signals <ref>[http://www.videouniversity.com/engineer.htm VideoUniversity.com - Engineering Primer]</ref>. Proc Amps can process video signals ranging from [[Analog television|analog]] [[Composite video|composite]] to [[Serial Digital Interface|SDI]] video signals. [[Broadcast]] professionals prefer to use [[hardware]] [[rack]] mountable proc amps that helps them make video [[broadcast safe]] by correcting video inconsistencies. However [[software]] proc amps are also available, that are embedded in [[Media player (application software)|media players]] like [[VLC]], [[encoders]] or [[decoders]] like [[ffdshow]] that process video, either on the [[Central processing unit|CPU]] or [[Graphics processing unit|GPU]].
