This is not useful information. It basically just rephrases the name of the
define without actually telling me anything.
I would expect to see here at least the following:
- what the DPCM abbreviation stands for
- a link or bibliography reference to the relevant standard (if there is any)
- a high-level explanation of what this do and what the difference is between
simple and advanced.
If this is part of a video compression standard, then this control would probably
belong to the MPEG control class as well.

Hans
