HAVi - (Home Audio Video Interoperability) - This is a standard for 1394 bus audio and video devices. It is software that is required for the units to talk to each other. HAVi allows plug-and-play recognition of devices, interoperability, and brand independence.
S-video - Also called Y/C, this two-wire standard keeps the color separate from the intensity signal, and thus avoids the overlapping sideband problem of composite signals. (Converting an NTSC signal to S-video gains you nothing since what was lost cannot be recreated.) - Although the quality of S-video is close to component video, S-video cannot transport anything better than 480i.
PVP-UAB - Protected Video Path User-Accessible Bus. Encrypts video content as it passes over the PCI Express bus from the high-def disc to prevent other PCI Express devices from intercepting the video stream.
Letterbox - The full display of a wide aspect ratio 16 - 9 picture on a display of aspect ratio 4 - 3 will result in black bars above and below the picture. This arrangement is referred to as "Letterbox" and is often seen during movies shown on television.
Component video. This 3-wire convention was created for connecting DVD players to TVs or monitors. It avoids downgrading the signal to NTSC. The signals may be RGB or YPrPb. Some HD STBs have only component video output.
4DTV - This is a DTV subscription service for C-band and Ku-band (a satellite service requiring an 8 foot dish).
Multicasting - Term given to the sharing of the digital television channel among 2, 3, 4 or more individual programs and/or data services
