GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Analog—

Commonly refers to the current NTSC transmission 

standard for televisions.

Aspect Ratio—

The ratio of the width to the height of a TV screen

independent of the screen size (x units wide by x units high). Analog
is 4:3; Digital can be 4:3 or 16:9 (also called wide screen).

ATSC—

Advanced Television Systems Committee

AV Jacks—

Audio Video Jacks

Bandwidth—

The range of frequencies assigned to a broadcast

channel. A TV channel is 6 MHz wide.

Component Jacks (Y Pb Pr)—

Green, Blue, and Red video jacks

that accept 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i signals. By separating the
Green (Y), Blue (Pb), and Red (Pr) video signal components, clearer,
more-defined images that exceed the performance of S-Video and
Composite video jacks are achieved.

Composite Jacks—

White, Red, and Yellow AV jacks. The White

and Red jacks carry the Left and Right audio signals while the
Yellow jack carries the composite video signal.

Dolby® Digital (Formally known as Dolby AC-3)—

A 5.1 channel

(Front L/R, Rear L/R, Center, and Bass) surround sound audio 
standard for digital television. 

Downconverting—

The removal of pixels. Frame rate and/or scan-

ning format may also change. Broadcasters may use this process to
make room in their bandwidth for additional services, such as, 
sub-channels.

DTV (Digital Television)—

Comprises four elements, HDTV,

EDTV, SDTV, and Multicasting.

DVI—

Digital Visual Interface. A pure digital video interface that

can pass standard-definition and high-definition video signals. It
supports the HDCP copy protection standard, allowing transmission
of copy-protected digital content. 

EDTV—

Enhanced-Definition TV (480p)

HDMI—

High-Definition Multimedia Interface. An all digital

audio/video interface that accepts uncompressed video signals for
the very best picture possible. It supports the HDCP copy protection
standard, allowing transmission of copy-protected digital content.
The signal can also include Dolby

®

Digital or PCM audio, when

available.

HDTV—

High-Definition TV (720p, 1080i, & 1080p)

Input / Output Jacks—

Used to receive (input) and send (output)

signals from one device to another. Such as, from a DVD player
(Output) to the TV (Input).

Interlaced Scanning—

The process of scanning two fields of video

then combining (interlacing) them to make one frame of video (or
one complete image).

Letter Box—

This term is used to describe a 16:9 ratio image being

displayed on a 4:3 ratio display device. Black bands appear at the top
and bottom of the screen.

MPEG2—

A compression scheme for moving images and audio. It

was developed by the Motion Picture Experts Group. This makes
HDTV and multicasting possible.

Multicasting—

The dividing of a station’s broadcast signal into sub-

channels of programming or data services. The resolution of the
main channel must be reduced to make room for sub-channels.

NTSC—

National Television Systems Committee

Pillar Boxing—

This term is used to describe a 4:3 ratio image being

displayed on a 16:9 ratio display device. Black bars (or pillars)
appear at the sides of the screen.

Pixel—

Picture Element

Progressive Scanning—

The process of scanning lines sequentially.

One scan produces one frame of video (or one complete image).

Set-Top Box (STB)—

A device that receives and converts signals for

display on a television screen (can be digital or analog). Many digital
STBs have cable and over-the-air tuners.

SDTV—

Standard-Definition TV (480i)

Signal—

The picture, sound, and data transmitted or received

through the air to an antenna, over a Cable TV system, from a Satel-
lite to a dish and receiver, or between external components of an
Audio/Video system.

Simulcast—

Simultaneously broadcasting the same program on two

or more channels. This is required by the FCC during the transition
from analog to digital. Simulcasting is scheduled to end and only
digital broadcasts will continue after February 17, 2009.

S-Video Jack—

A round 4-pin jack that accepts separated luminance

and chroma signals from a DVD player, Super VHS VCR, or similar
analog device. The resolution of this input exceeds that of a com-
posite video input (yellow connector), but is lesser than the
resolution of component inputs (Y Pb Pr).

Terrestrial—

An over-the-air broadcast to an antenna.

Upconverting—

A process of converting original analog program-

ming to digital for DTV broadcasting. Pixels may be duplicated and
inserted between existing pixels to simulate HDTV. This does not
increase the resolution. The resolution of an image is set during the
recording process. It cannot be increased through conversion
processes.

Wide Screen—

Used to describe a 16:9 or greater aspect ratio. 16:9

is the standard aspect ratio for HDTV digital displays. Movies
screens are often slightly wider.
