Definition of Terms
Krell DVD Standard 3
Composite Video
An encoded video signal that includes horizontal and vertical syn-
chronizing information.
Component Video
A video signal that uses three wires to convey luminance (Y), red
minus luminance (R-Y), and blue minus luminance (B-Y) signals.
Progressive Scan Video
Video signals (noninterlaced) that build screen content in one pass
rather than the two passes required for standard (interlaced) video.
This technology eliminates motion artifact and screen line and pro-
duces film-quality pictures.
RGB
Red, green, and blue, the three primary colors used in video
processing.
S-Video
Video signal that separately transmits the color and luminance com-
ponents of the video signal but does not use three separate wires as
does component video.
YPbPr
One way of designating color difference signals. Y = the luminance
signal, Pb = the red minus luminance (R-Y) signal, and Pb = the blue
minus luminance (B-Y) signal.
