Usage notes
According to the current orthography (based on AkH. and MHSz.), video- is only used as a prefix with a short o (without an accent) in words like videogenerátor, videojel, videoprocesszor, videotechnika, videotéka (most of them referring to the technical background). By contrast, common words like videóblog, videófelvétel, videómegosztó, videófilm, videójáték, videókazetta, videóklip, videómagnó, videóreklám, videótelefon etc. are derived from videó with a long (accented) ó (as a shortening for the motion picture or the videocassette recorder).
