Interactive Television - TV programming with interactive content and enhancements, blending traditional TV viewing with the interactivity of a personal computer.
Pan-and-scan - A method of broadcasting a wide screen film on a 4:3 channel. Most of the time just the center of the image is shown. (The right and left edges are clipped off.)
Reverse 3 - 2 Pull-Down - DTV material originating on film at 24 fps is converted to the 30 fps of DTV by repeating field or frames, resulting in some motion artefacts. Some film presentations remove these repeated images before transmission and send a signal to the television causing it to process (termed Reverse 3 - 2 Pull-Down) this material appropriately to make it suitable for display. In this way, the displayed material closely matches the original film quality, avoiding the motion artefacts.
NTSC - (National Television System Committee technical standard) - This is analog TV invented in 1946. NTSC has 525 lines (483 visible) interlaced, 60 fields per second. This standard is in use in North America, Japan, South Korea, Burma, Taiwan, the Philippines, and much of South America.

MTS - (Multi-channel Television Sound) - This refers to an analog NTSC TV equipped with stereo and SAP (separate audio program) features.
