Does anyone out there know of a webpage or resource that has a compiled list of the variety of video/audio/broadcast-related acronyms that are currently being used (and are exponentialy multiplying)? I think it would be a real handy thing to have. Just curious.

There are probably hundreds, post here and I'll try to answer and define as many as I can.

Thanks for the help guys. I actually thought that it would be a great idea to have a acronym database - a webpage for anybody to check out if they have an acronymn that they can't figure out. Could be especially helpful to those who are newer to the video world. It seems like it wouldn't be too hard to put together.

Not a site dedicated for video but this will have a lot of the acronyms on it:

Not a lot of people know about the <acronym> HTML tag, but it's useful to use in your web pages when you have acronyms that deserve quick explanation.
