{"abstract":"The Federal Communications Commission has adopted a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on compatibility between cable television systems and consumer electronics equipment. The NPRM is designed to resolve outstanding compatibility issues, in particular requirements for labeling digital television (DTV) receivers to describe their capabilities to operate with digital cable television systems and questions regarding licensing terms for copy protection technology. Resolving these issues will not only insure that consumers make informed purchasing decisions with respect to DTV equipment but also promote the overall transition from analog to digital television.","action":"Proposed rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION","name":"Federal Communications Commission","id":161,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/federal-communications-commission","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/161","parent_id":null,"slug":"federal-communications-commission"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2000/04/27/00-10448.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":76,"title":47}],"citation":"65 FR 24671","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2000-05-24","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Comments must be received on or before May 24, 2000, and reply comments on or before June 8, 2000.
