Operating instructions
Glossary
V
VGA: PC interface for connecting a monitor.
VPS: The Video Programming System (VPS) is a signal which some (but
not all) analogue TV stations transmit in the blanking gap. The signal
is used by video and DVD recorders when recording programmes to
react to delays in start time, programme changes and excesses of the
planned programme time.
W
WEP: Abbreviation for Wired Equivalent Privacy. Former standard process
in the WLAN encryption, now outdated.
Wired network: see LAN.
Wireless network: see WLAN.
WLAN: Abbreviation for Wireless Local Area Network. Also referred to
in brief as wireless network.
WMA: Abbreviation for Windows Media Audio, Microsoft's own audio
data format. The contents are compressed as in MP3 files.
WMV: Abbreviation for Windows Media Video, Microsoft own video
data format.
WPA: Abbreviation for Wi-Fi Protected Access. Replaced WEP as standard
encryption for wireless networks.
Y
Ycc/Ypp: Colour standards for Set-Top-Boxes.
YCbCr: Digital colour model, informally also incorrect designation for
signals in standard resolution (SDTV). The YCbCr colour model, in which
e.g. DVDs are coded, has been developed from the YUV colour model
used in analogue television technology. With YCbCr, the data is trans-
ferred via digital interfaces such as DVI or HDMI without being converted.
YPbPr: Analogue colour model, see also Component connection. The
analogue YPbPr signal is generated from the YCbCr signal by a converter
in the source player and then output at the 3 component outputs of
the source player.
YUV: The YUV colour model is used for analogue television in accordance
with the standards PAL and NTSC. YUV is often informally referred to
when YPbPr (for analogue connections/cables) or YCbCr (in digital ap-
plications) is actually meant. YUV only occurs in quadrature modulation
during PAL or NTSC transfer and is not otherwise used.
