This probably belongs in the anime forum, if anywhere.

Regardless, (s) means 'subtitled' and (d) 'dubbed', referring to whether a series' dialogue track is in Japanese with subtitles in English or has been dubbed into English.

Also just in case HYB means both the Sub & Dub versions are on the DVD/Blu-Ray.

Standard Definition. Well, when they are together, like Title(SD).

Does any one know what the "i" in a little rid circle mean in the encyclopedia next to some names in the credits?

That can appear elsewhere, and it just means that someone believes the info is incorrect and has submitted an error report regarding it.

Thanks, I wasn't too sure and thought it meant that it was simply lacking info.

Or Super Deformed if it's refering to model kits or character designs.
