Video Scrambling and Descrambling for Satellite & Cable TV provides the "how and why" of encoding and decoding video signals. Most of the currently used methods are discussed, with the necessary technical background. Since digital scrambling methods will undoubtedly supplant analog methods, information on analog/digital conversion, phase-locked loops, digital techniques, and IC data sheets are included. In this new edition the authors incorporate the many developments in this field since 1986. They elaborate the basic information on scrambling given in the first edition, and discuss current scrambling systems such as Tri-mode, SSAVI, and Videocipher II. Looking back at the "gloom and doom" predictions made in the 80s, they discuss which have proven correct, which have yet to be realized, and which have been wrong. Their discussion of basic circuitry now includes some new IC devices, and the section on political, legal and consumer aspects of scrambling has been completely updated. New digitization techniques and construction data, decoder circuitry, audio scrambling techniques, manufacturers' data sheets, US Patents, and current developments such as digital audio are also covered in this updated version.

Cable television is arguably the dominant mass media technology in the U.S. today. Blue Skies traces its history in detail, depicting the important events and people that shaped its development, from the precursors of cable TV in the 1920s and '30s to the first community antenna systems in the 1950s, and from the creation of the national satellite-distributed cable networks in the 1970s to the current incarnation of "info-structure" that dominates our lives. Author Patrick Parsons also considers the ways that economics, public perception, public policy, entrepreneurial personalities, the social construction of the possibilities of cable, and simple chance all influenced the development of cable TV. Since the 1960s, one of the pervasive visions of "cable" has been of a ubiquitous, flexible, interactive communications system capable of providing news, information, entertainment, diverse local programming, and even social services. That set of utopian hopes became known as the "Blue Sky" vision of cable television, from which the book takes its title. Thoroughly documented and carefully researched, yet lively, occasionally humorous, and consistently insightful, Blue Skies is the genealogy of our media society.

High monthly cost, inflexible bundles of hundreds of channels you never watch, long-term contracts, equipment rental fees, cancellation fees, lousy customer service, and yearly price increases - why would anyone want cable or satellite TV? There is a revolution that has giant cable and satellite TV corporations worried. A major shift in how we watch TV is underway as each month hundreds of thousands of cable and satellite TV subscribers cut the cord and cancel their expensive subscriptions. Over 33 million Americans have cut the cord, opting to watch TV for free using an over-the-air antenna or by taking advantage of low-cost streaming video services that cost a small fraction of the price of cable or satellite TV. In 2018, the number of households who have cut the cord rose by 32.8% with the top five cable and satellite TV providers losing 3.2 million subscribers. In the first quarter of 2019 alone, the top ten U.S. cable and satellite TV providers lost 1.28 million customers. If that trend continues, more than 5 million cable and satellite TV subscribers will have cut their cable cord and ditched their satellite dish by the end of 2019. By the end of 2019, 34% of Americans are expected to have cut their cable TV cord or ditched their satellite TV dish. 61% of U.S. adults aged 18 to 29 and 37% aged 30 to 49 do not have cable or satellite TV and use online streaming services as their primary way to watch TV. 71% of cord-cutters stated their reason for cutting the cord was the high cost of cable and satellite TV. A survey of cord-cutters found the longer they went without cable or satellite TV, the more satisfied they were with their decision to cut the cord. The average cable TV bill is a whopping $107 per month - nearly $1,300 a year! Most of us pay more. I will show you how to cut the cord and save $75 or more each month, even if you are paying as little as $100 a month for cable or satellite TV. Think it's not worth the time or effort? The average cord-cutter saves $104 a month - $1,248 a year! Are you tired of throwing good money away on high cable or satellite TV bills? Do you want to enjoy television without emptying your bank account? Let me show you how to how to watch TV without paying a cable or satellite TV bill. It's time you joined the revolution!

Writing for readers with a background in electronics, some knowledge of analog television, and a basic digital background, Benoit (Philips Semiconductors, France) intends this book as a summary and starting point rather than a handbook for experts. He describes the complex problems that had to be solved in order to define reliable standards for broadcasting digital pictures, and he explains the solutions chosen for the European digital video broadcasting (DVB) system based on the international MPEG-2 compression standard. The book ends with a description of a digital integrated receiver decoder, or set-top box, and a discussion of future prospects. Adapted and translated by the author from a 1996 work published in French (Paris: Dunod). The second edition adds a chapter on software interoperability.
