Virtual Dolby Digital using SRS TruSurround*8

Logo:

SRS TruSurround creates a realistic surround-sound effect from any Dolby Digital or Pro Logic encoded source using just two speakers. SRS TruSurround is a process certified by Dolby Laboratories for Virtual Dolby Digital sound. See Virtual Surround on page 54.

Multiple video output formats that can be selected to best suit your TV or monitor

This player features two composite and two S- video jacks, component video and two AV connector terminals. The AV connector can output an RGB signal (although it is not possible to output RGB and component video at the same time).

Dual PureCinema progressive scan for both PAL and NTSC video formats

When connected to a progressive scan- compatible TV or monitor using the component video outputs, you can enjoy extremely stable, flicker free images, with the same frame refresh rate as the original movie (see page 26, 57).

Super Fine Focus digital filter

This improves the quality of the video output by reducing video noise and increasing the horizontal resolution to 540 lines.

MP3 compatibility

This player is compatible with CD-R, CD-RW and CD-ROM discs that contain MP3 audio tracks. See also Compressed audio compatibility on page 9.
