IIRC, EDTV is a post-ATSC standard set by the CEA for labeling digital TV's that do 480p.

Here’s what struck me in a post from John today:“Therefore, all SD programming is 4:3 exclusively.”And“In the US, 16:9 will forever remain the exclusive domain of HD.”704X480I is not an HDTV format, and I’m not aware of any ATSC or ATSC-referenced specification that promulgates the use of the term “Enhanced Definition” or ED.I believe I have accurately quoted John Shutt, and unless provided with a reference to an ATSC or ATSC-cited MPEG specification to the contrary, I see HDTV, SDTV, and things that are less than SDTV.I believe the statement directly above is incontrovertible. So, all I need to disprove both of these is to show actual stream captures that are 1) displayed in 16:9 and 2) use a format that doesn’t qualify as HDTV.How’s this? http://www.etherguidesystems.com/demos/default.aspxAnd, I have previously conceded you were right about something – in my subject area, John. I try to deal in facts, and I only try to attain perfection, I never have claimed to have achieved it.John Willkie jwillkie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:jwillkie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>www.EtherGuidesystems.com <http://www.EtherGuidesystems.com> / www.OurEPG.com <http://www.OurEPG.com>Skype jmwillkie / Lab ++52 664 290-7526 / Mobile +1 619 770-5760
