OAV means (O)riginal (A)nimation (V)ideo, and is a Japanese term for a direct-to-video release. Animerica uses OAV, but in Japan this alternates between OAV and OVA (original video animation), and occasionally a U.S. release title will use the term OVA. The meaning is exactly the same. Sub- Refers to Subtitled Dub- Refers to it being present with no subtitles because it is suited for your language. The Anime on Adult Swim is an example.
