Glossary
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 intensity 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.
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.
Stereo: is the default audio signal belonging to a particular channel.
S-Video: Separate 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.
