In the past few years, ongoing developments in digital technology have enabled rapid progress in radio and television. The terms used in broadcasting, information technology and telecommunications have grown closer together and many new ones have now become common usage in several disciplines at once. This time-proven dictionary is the result of intensive collaboration between several broadcasting institutions. With this book, technical and editorial staff will be receiving a collection of more than 25,000 terms from the areas of editing and programming, studio technology and production, contribution and distribution, transmission and terminal equipment as well as the fields of measurement technology and operations handling.
