| 17 | |wm_encoding_utility:interlace| | |interlace| | |To display video by using a half-resolution image known as a field. Interlaced video uses two video fields to make a single frame of video. Each field of video contains alternating lines of an image: field 1 displays the odd numbered lines and field 2 displays the even numbered lines. Interlacing saves bandwidth when the video is transmitted as a television broadcast or on cable.| |

| 19 | |wm_encoding_utility:key_frame| | |key frame| | |A frame of video data that contains all the data necessary to construct that frame. In contrast | delta frames contain data relating to changes from the last key frame | and do not contain enough information to construct a complete frame.| |
| 20 | |wm_encoding_utility:multiple_bit_rate| | |multiple bit rate| | |Describes a file or stream that contains the same content encoded at several different bit rates. As network traffic changes | a Windows Media server can switch to a lower or higher bit rate to optimize content delivery.| |
| 21 | |wm_encoding_utility:national_television_standards_committee__ntsc_| | |National Television Standards Committee (NTSC)| | |The standards body that is responsible for setting television and video standards in the United States. The NTSC standard for television defines a composite video signal with a refresh rate of 60 half-frames (interlaced) per second. Each frame contains 525 lines and can contain 16 million different colors.| |
| 22 | |wm_encoding_utility:ntsc| | |NTSC| | |See definition for: National Television Standards Committee (NTSC)| |
| 23 | |wm_encoding_utility:one_pass_encoding| | |one-pass encoding| | |The ability to pass content through the encoder once. Compression is applied as the content is encountered.| |

| 32 | |wm_encoding_utility:sampling_rate| | |sampling rate| | |The frequency at which audio or video is sampled | or recorded | into a digital format. Each sample represents the audio or video signal at a particular moment in time. The higher the sampling rate (that is | the more samples taken per unit of time) | the more closely the digitized result resembles the original.| |

| 34 | |wm_encoding_utility:stream| | |stream| | |Data transmitted across a network and any properties associated with the data. Streaming digital data enables clients to begin rendering the data immediately instead of waiting for the entire file to be received.| |

| 36 | |wm_encoding_utility:telecine| | |telecine| | |The film-to-video conversion system that adds frames to video to compensate for the differences in frame rates between film and video. When converting 24 fps film to 30 fps NTSC video | an additional 6 frames per second are added.| |

| 38 | |wm_encoding_utility:two_pass_encoding| | |two-pass encoding| | |The ability to pass content through the encoder twice. During the first pass | the encoder analyzes the content.
