Digital Distortion, much like Analog Distortion, is a general category of distortion techniques that take place outside of a video editor- all generally involving distortions relating to the video file itself, through resolution, settings, or data corruption - Sometimes, this is informally referred to as 'crust'-ing a video.

How a video is rendered (or initial settings) can lead to distortions in itself, if done right.

Low bitrate

Rendering with an intentionally low video and/or audio quality can add a certain charm to a video that is hard to get otherwise; in some cases it can provide a much more "retro tennis" look, on others it can smooth out rougher edits as your brain fills in what may not be entirely clear.

Interlacing

Many older codecs (especially AVIs) will interlace by default. This means that the video will appear to split apart into small bars whenever there is fast movement.
