Enhanced-definition television, extended-definition television, or EDTV is a United States Consumer Electronics Association marketing shorthand term for certain digital television formats and devices. Specifically, this term defines formats that deliver a picture that is superior to that of standard-definition television, but not as detailed as high-definition television. The term refers to devices capable of displaying 480 or 576-line signals in progressive scan as opposed to interlaced scanning, commonly referred to as "480i" or "576i". High-motion is optional for EDTV. In other countries the outlook may be different. For example, in Australia the 576p digital TV system is officially recognised as high definition, although HD broadcasts in Australia have to be a minimum of 720p.
