Pixels Per Inch - Pixels per inch (PPI) is a measure of the sharpness (that is, the density of illuminated points) on a television display screen.
4DTV - This is a DTV subscription service for C-band and Ku-band (a satellite service requiring an 8 foot dish).
Metadata - Informational data about the data, included in a signal's data stream.
EDTV - Enhanced Definition Television. A term defining a television that displays the picture (either from SDTV or HDTV) at a resolution of 480p lines in either 4 - 3 or 16 - 9 aspect ratio and which includes Dolby Digital AC-3 multichannel sound.
Compression - Compression refers to the reduction of the size of digital data files by removing redundant and/or non-critical information ("data" being the elements of video, audio and other "information"). Digital TV in the U.S. would not be possible without compression.
IEEE 1394 - Also called Firewire or iLink. Originally a serial bus for PCs, 1394 may or may not become the interconnection standard for DTV products. It is competing with DVI. IEEE 1394 is a spec for a hardware interconnect plus a software shell. But additional software, such as HAVi, is required for connected units to actually talk to each other. Some day 1394 may dramatically simplify the way DTV products interconnect.
D-ILA - (Direct-drive Image Light Amplifier) (see LCOS)
