I/O: Input/Output
IP: Internet Protocol
Kbps: 1000 bit per second
LED: Light Emitting Diode
LNB: Low-Noise Block

Main level: A range of allowed picture parameters defined by the MPEG-2 video coding
specification with maximum resolution equivalent to ITU-R Recommendation 601.
Main profile: A subset of the syntax of the MPEG-2 video coding specification that is
expected to be supported over a large range of applications.
Mbps: 1,000,000 bits per second.
MER: Modulation Error Ratio
MGT: Master Guide Table
MIB: Management Information Base
MP@HL: Main profile at high level.
MP@ML: Main profile at main level.
MPEG: Refers to standards developed by the ISO/IEC JTC1/SC29 WG11, Moving
Picture Experts Group. MPEG may also refer to the Group.
MPEG-2: Refers to ISO/IEC standards 13818-1 (Systems), 13818-2 (Video), 13818-3

NTP: Networking Time Protocol
NTSC: National Television System Committee
OSD: On Screen Display
PAL: Phase-Alternating Line
PAT: Program Association Table
PCM: Pulse-Code Modulation

PID: Packet Identifier. A unique integer value used to associate elementary streams of a
program in a single or multi-program transport stream.
PMT: Program Map Table

specification
Program specific information (PSI):
PSI consists of normative data which is
necessary for the demultiplexing of transport streams and the successful
regeneration of programs.
Program: A program is a collection of program elements. Program elements may be
elementary streams. Program elements need not have any defined time base; those
that do have a common time base and are intended for synchronized presentation.
