Confederate Flags

I have a question for a history buff or anyone who might know the answer!

I have always thought that this is the Confederate "Stars and Bars":




And this was their battle flag:




But it seems that when people talk about the flag some Southerners fly in their yards and the flag that flies over the South Carolina capitol building, the flag to which they refer is the one I know as the "battle flag", yet they call it the "Stars and bars"

Am I wrong about which flag is which? Or does "Stars and Bars" refer to any Confederate flag? Are the terms interchangeable?
