Glossary
Aspect Ratio The ratio of width to height of a film, image or display screen.
Broadcast TV Broadcasting video signals using high-frequency electromagnetic
waves to distribute television channels to viewers (standard TV broadcast).
CATV Community Antenna Television, the original name for cable TV. A television
distribution system that uses coaxial cable instead of the traditional radio broadcasting (over-the-air) method to deliver television, FM radio, and other services to
consumers.
Color Temperature Adjusting the color temperature enables you to set the inten-
sity of white light. Color temperature is measured in Kelvin (K). Higher color temperatures result in a blue tint. Lower temperatures result in a red tint.
Hue Colors in a color system are measured by hue, saturation and luminance.
Hue indicates the predominant color.
LCD Liquid Crystal Display. A display technology that uses rod-shaped molecules
(liquid crystals) that flow like liquid and bend light.
MAIN is the default audio signal belonging to a particular channel.
MTS Multi-channel Television Sound. Enables reception of audio other than the
primary (MAIN) audio signal. SAP (Second Audio Program) enables reception of a
separate channel that may be a different language or completely different information such as the news.
RCA connector An RCA or phono connector is a plug and socket for a two-wire
(signal and ground) coaxial cable that is widely used to connect audio and video
components. RCA sockets are commonly found at the rear of A/V equipment.
Saturation Chromatic purity indicating the amount of white contained in a color.
Fully saturated colors are pure colors; less saturated colors appear as pastel
shades.
S-Video Super-video, a video cabling standard used to transmit video by keeping
brightness (Y) and color information (C) on separate channels. Most often used
with camcorders, VCRs, and quality receivers and amplifiers to provide sharper pictures.
