LB or LDB: Low-delay B – the variant of the LD conditions that uses B pictures.
LC: Low complexity – a set of coding capabilities designed for reduced implementation complexity (contrast with HE). Often loosely associated with LD.
LD: Low delay – one of two sets of coding conditions designed to enable interactive real-time communication, with less emphasis on ease of random access (contrast with RA). Often loosely associated with LC. Typically refers to LB, although also applies to LP.
LM: Linear model.
LP or LDP: Low-delay P – the variant of the LD conditions that uses P frames.
LUT: Look-up table.
MANE: Media-aware network elements.
MC: Motion compensation.
MPEG: Moving picture experts group (WG 11, the parent body working group in ISO/IEC JTC 1/ SC 29, one of the two parent bodies of the JCT-VC).
