TCP/IP - " Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol." TCP/IP is the method most commonly used in the Internet to transfer data, including streaming video and audio, between computers.
Native format - Some DTVs will convert the 18 ATSC formats into 1 or 2 formats and will draw only those. For these sets, the `native' format is - 1. the formats the set will draw or - 2. the original format. (These are contradictory definitions, but they reflect current practice. 1 is probably the preferred meaning.)
YCrCb - Almost identical to YPrPb. If you connect a YCrCb unit to a YPrPb unit you might have to adjust the color slightly. YCrCb is an older standard uncommon for consumer connections.
Multicasting - Term given to the sharing of the digital television channel among 2, 3, 4 or more individual programs and/or data services
BNC connectors. These common RF connectors are sometimes found on VGA cables in place of a VGA connector. They employ a quarter-turn twist-lock mechanism.
Compression - A method of reducing the number of bits required to store or transmit programs by the removal of redundant and/or non-critical information in the digital picture and sound. The DTV broadcasting standard for Canada, uses the MPEG-2 video and the AC-3 audio compression coding. Compression allows the delivery of more programs in a single channel.
YPrPb - Color representation requires three independent variables. CRTs - prefer red, green, and blue. Ink jet printers prefer yellow, magenta, and cyan. NTSC encodes color as luminance (brightness), hue (color), and saturation (absence of white in colors). Storage media such as DVDs prefer Y, Pr, and Pb, where Y is luminance, Pr is Y-red, and Pb is Y-blue. This is because Pr and Pb can be at lower resolution and not degrade the image noticeably, thus saving storage space.
