Cable Modem - A data modem that provides an Internet connection over the TV cable network. Video-on-demand or interactive services may require such a connection.
DLP (Digital Light Processing) - A technique in which the displayed image is produced by an array of dynamic micro-mirrors formed on a chip, each reflecting some of the light source to form a pixel on the screen. Each micro-mirror controls the level of the light sent to the screen for its pixel. Resolution is set by the size of the mirror array and versions suitable for wide-screen HDTV are now in production for uses in both front and rear projection televisions.
HD-Ready TV - An HDTV monitor or TV that lacks a digital tuner.
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.
Closed Captioning - A data stream included in broadcast signal that provides text and/or narrative description of dialogue, sounds, and other elements of the picture for viewers with visual or auditory impairments.
If you want the simplicity that comes with the cable receiver being integrated with the TV then you should buy a TV with a cable card slot. However if you like TiVo then you would instead get a DVR, which will have its own cable card slot.
Sampling - This is the digital process by which analog information is measured, often millions of times per second, in order to convert analog to digital.
