Glossary Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) — A standardized compr ession and encoding scheme for lossy (low quality) digital audio. Higher bit rates provide higher quality . Part of the MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 specifications. The SMD101 supports AAC-LC (MPEG-2 part 7, MPEG-4 part3, sub-part4 and part 14, MP4 audio). Advanced Video Coding (A VC) — [...]

Elementary Stream — Raw H.264 video or raw AAC audio, not wrapped by additional headers. Encoder — A hardwar e device or software program used to compr ess (encode) or change a signal from one format to another or convert an analog signal into a digital data str eam. The SME100 is an encoder that converts analog audio and video into digital [...]

Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) — A TCP/IP communications pr otocol used by hosts and adjacent routers on a network to establish multicast gr oup memberships. When the SMD101 is connected to a streaming media server , the IGMP multicast protocol is used to pull RTSP streams. The IGMP multicast pr otocol conserves network bandwidth be[...]

Network Address T ranslation (NA T) — A network protocol that allows multiple devices to have their own, individual, private addresses, but they shar e one public IP address (IPv4) for connection to the internet or other networks. Network Time Protocol (NTP) — A pr otocol used for synchronizing the clocks of computer systems over networks. Pari[...]

Static IP address — An IP addr ess specifically (instead of dynamically [see "DHCP"]) assigned to a device or system in a network configuration.
