Actually DTV is based on the work of the NTSC. Y, Cb, Cr is essentially a digitized version of Y, Pb, Pr. These signals are the luma, and the B-Y and R-Y signals respectively, which would either be fed to digital MPEG2 encoder (for say broadcast or authoring a DVD) or would be fed to an NTSC color encoder to create an analog composite video.
