Highlights

Progressive Scan

Progressive Scan doubles the vertical resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably sharper picture. Instead of sending a field comprising the odd lines to the screen first, followed by the field with the even lines, it writes both fields at the same time. A full image is created instantaneously, using the maximum resolution. At such a speed, your eye perceives a sharper picture with no line structure.

DivX Ultra Certified

With DivX support, you can enjoy DivX encoded videos in the comfort of your living room. The DivX media format is an MPEG4- based video compression technology that enables you to save large files such as movies, trailers and music videos on media, e.g. CD-R/ RW and DVD recordable discs. DivX Ultra combines DivX playback with great features including integrated subtitles, multiple audio languages, multiple tracks and menus into one convenient file format.

Karaoke scoring

Add a dash of fun to your Karaoke sessions with Karaoke Scoring. Allow your performance to be judged for further improvement, or for friendly competitions. Karaoke Scoring automatically rates your singing and gives you a humorous picture that is tied to how well you did. The fun never ends.

Plays it all

Play virtually any media format you want - whether it is DivX, MP3, WMA or JPEG. Experience the unbeatable convenience of great playability, and the luxury of sharing media files on your TV or home theatre system - in the comfort of your living room.

HDMI for simple AV connection

HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. It is a direct digital connection that

can carry digital HD video as well as digital multi-channel audio. By eliminating the conversion to analogue signals it delivers perfect picture and sound quality, completely free from noise. HDMI is fully backwards- compatible with DVI (Digital Video Interface).

High definition JPEG playback

High definition JPEG playback lets you view your pictures on your television in resolutions as high as two megapixels. Now you can view your digital pictures in absolute clarity, without loss of quality or detail - and share them with friends and family in the comfort of your living room.

HDMI 1080p

HDMI 1080p upscaling delivers images that are crystal clear. Movies in standard definition can now be enjoyed in true high definition resolution - ensuring more details and more true-to-life pictures. Progressive Scan (represented by "p" in "1080p") eliminates the line structure prevalent on TV screens, again ensuring relentlessly sharp images. To top it off, HDMI makes a direct digital connection that can carry uncompressed digital HD video as well as digital multi-channel audio, without conversions to analogue - delivering perfect picture and sound quality, completely free from noise.
