DVD - Digital Versatile Disk. An optical recording media similar to the familiar CD but having seven times its capacity on a single side. In television applications, DVD's are capable of carrying full-length commercial movies, plus additional material such as outtakes, director's notes, movie trailers, etc.
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.
Down Converting - Process by which a high-definition signal is converted to a standard definition picture.
Plasma Displays (PDP). A technique that builds an image from a large number of pixels formed in a glass panel. The pixels are individually controlled, yielding a picture free of flicker and of high brightness. Displays of excellent resolution and color are available and the display approaches the "television picture on the wall" ideal. PDP displays up to 160 cm (63in.) are available, making them suitable for the home theatre.
Convergence - An adjustment that must be made occasionally to CRT sets. This adjustment makes the three colors coincide perfectly.
STB - (Set Top Box) - These include satellite receivers, cable TV receivers, OTA receivers, and various recording devices.
DTV - (digital TV). Examples of DTV are DBS satellite services, digital cable TV services, and ATSC digital TV stations.
