Term
Meaning
DVI
Digital Visual Interface
A digital interface standard created by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG)
to convert analog signals into digital signals to accommodate both analog and digital
monitors.
RGB signals
Red, Green and Blue signals
These are the three video signals, red, green & blue, which make up the picture.
Using
these signals improves picture quality.
S-VHS signals
Super-VHS signals
These are 2 separate Y/C video signals from the S-VHS and Hi-8 recording standards.
The luminance signals Y (black and white) and chrominance signals C (color) are
recorded separately on the tape.
This provides better picture quality than with standard
video (VHS and 8 mm) where the Y/C signals are combined to provide only one video
signal.
16:9
TV format
Refers to the ratio between the length and height of the screen.
Wide screen televisions
have a ratio of 16 by 9, conventional screen TV sets have a ratio of 4 by 3.
HDMI
High definition Multimedia
Interface
Provides an uncompressed, all digital audio/video interface between the TV and any
HDMI-equipped audio/video component, such as set-top box, DVD player and A/V
receiver.
HDMI supports enhanced or high de
nition video plus two-channel digital
audio.
System
Television pictures are not broadcast in the same way in all countries.
There are
different standards: BG, DK, I, and LL’.
The System setting is used to select these
different standards.
This is not to be confused with PAL or SECAM color coding.
PAL
is used in most countries in Europe, Secam in France, Russia and most African countries.
The United States and Japan use a different system called NTSC.
The inputs AV1 and
AV2 are used to read NTSC coded recordings.
HDCP
High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection
A speci
cation developed by Intel for protecting digital entertainment that uses the DVI
interface.
HDCP encrypts content the transmission of digital content between the video
source or transmitter such as a computer, DVD player or set-top box and the digital
display or receiver such as a monitor, television or projector.
