I came to Wikipedia to look up some of the terminology in article Digital Video & HDTV.

Digitized Video Standards NTSC PAL SMPTE 259M CCIR 656 EU95 SMPTE 292M

Serial Digital Video Formats SMPTE 259M ITU-R601 CCIR 656 EU95 SMPTE 292M

Are "ITU-R601" and "CCIR 656" the same as CCIR 601? Did EU95 become DVB ?

[edit] Uncompressed digital video bit rate

The article mentions the bit rate of roughly 400 MBit/s. By my calculation, standard definition digital PAL would have a bit rate of around 160 MBit/s at 8-bit per sample and 4:2:2 color sampling.
