Progressive Scanning - A system of video scanning where lines of a picture are displayed consecutively (unlike interlaced).
DVI - (Digital Visual Interface) - This connector conveys HDTV image scanning signals in binary data form. The data rate is very high (1.65 Gb/s). Binary data is preferred by monitors that are not CRTs. DVI comes with a decryption option called HDCP which will decode encrypted programs such as first-run movies.
DTV - (digital TV). Examples of DTV are DBS satellite services, digital cable TV services, and ATSC digital TV stations.
Wide screen - A term given to picture displays with a wider aspect ratio than NTSC 4:3. Digital HDTV or SDTV is referred to as "16:9 wide screen." Most motion pictures also have a 16:9 wide screen aspect ratio. Most Digital TVs have a screen that is wider than it is tall (if a Digital TV screen is nine inches high, it's 16 inches wide.) When watching a show recorded in the wide screen format on a Digital TV, viewers see more of the movie, while when viewing wide screen format on an analog TV, cropped edges are evident.
Dolby Digital 2.0 - This is a two channel (stereo or Pro Logic) version of Dolby Digital. It is often used by DBS systems.
OAR - (original aspect ratio) - Also called Letterbox format, OAR means that none of the image is clipped or squeezed. Unused parts of the screen are usually black.
Composite Video Connection - A method to interconnect video devices (such as a DTV set-top box and the analog television) by sending the signal over a single cable. This method is suitable only for analog NTSC signals
