CEA CEA-CEB12-A Document Information:
Title
PSIP Recommended Practice
Consumer Electronics Association
Publication Date:
Oct 1, 2003
Scope:
This bulletin, CEA-CEB12-A, provides guidance for the
development and implementation of Advanced Television Systems
Committee (ATSC) Program and System Information Protocol
(PSIP)-compliant receivers, cable-ready DTV receivers, personal
recorders and other consumer electronics devices. It includes
recommendations and suggestions for device functionality.
CEA-CEB12-A should in no way prohibit consumer device manufacturers
from including additional features, and CEA-CEB12-A should not be
interpreted as recommending an upper limit to device
performance.
Numerous possible PSIP implementation scenarios could be
considered. However, CEA-CEB12-A does not include an exhaustive
classification of the possibilities; rather, some simpler scenarios
are addressed.
CEA-CEB12-A assumes that the user sets up the receiver without
professional assistance, and that setup is menu-driven, simple, and
mostly automatic. It is possible, however, that receivers may be
professionally installed and set up by trained technicians.
CEA-CEB12-A does not currently address receivers that have
built-in satellite receiving capability, nor receivers that can
access EPG databases using phone lines. Nor does it address cable
set-top boxes, satellite boxes, VCRs, DVD players, or other
auxiliary devices or connections.
CEA-CEB12-A uses the terminology defined in ATSC A/65B, and
should be read in conjunction with ATSC A/65B.
NOTE—Designers should be aware that there are FCC regulations
that may apply to functions described in this CEA-CEB12-A; and
while every reasonable attempt was made to have this CEA-CEB12-A
conform to those regulations in place as of the date of
publication, implementers are cautioned to read and understand all
applicable regulations.
