TECHNOLOGY & BENEFITS

VIDEO

>> High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI™) - HDMI™ (High-Definition

Multimedia Interface) is the first industry-supported, uncompressed, all- digital audio/video connection. HDMI™ provides the best interface between a DVD player and compatible products, such as a digital television (DTV). When matched with a compatible TV, this single interconnecting cable combines: Multi-channel audio, uncompressed digital video, intercommuni- cation between devices and simple control Protocols. This single cable connection ensures that all signals remain in their pure digital form and secure by use of High Definition Copy Protection (HDCP) regardless of signal output resolution.

>> Video Upconversion - 720p/1080i - HDMI™ can support uncompressed digital video up to HDTV level resolution. Thus, the player makes use of this conduit by up-converting the standard DVD picture resolution to nearly HDTV-quality with output resolutions of 720p or 1080i. This makes a DVD player with an HDMI™ connection the perfect match for today’s digital televisions. And because this conversion is performed in the player, the signal remains free from excessive digital-to-analog conversion artifacts.

>> ColorStream Pro® Component Video Outputs - These outputs allow the highest quality video signal to be sent from the DVD player to a component video equipped progressive scan TV. When this connection is utilized with today’s HD-compatible sets, typical NTSC artifacts-like video noise, dot crawl, and flicker-are virtually eliminated, resulting in a low-noise, highly detailed picture with unequaled color purity.

>> Digital Cinema Progressive (3/2 Pulldown) - Delivers the smoothest, most film-like images to any progressive scan television, such as an HD- compatible one, and ensures maximum resolution.

>> 9-In-2 Card Slot - Media card playback, will accept Secure Digital, Mini Secure Digital, Memory Stick®, Memory Stick Pro™, Memory Stick Duo™, Memory Stick Pro Duo™, XD Picture Card, Compact Flash and Multimedia Card. By taking advantage of these different media formats; the DVD player will allow functionality for JPEG, WMA and MP3 files.

>> HD JPEG – Thanks to a specialize chipset (MPEG Decoder and Scaler) and the HDMI™ interface with an HDTV display, Megapixel JPEG images are displayed in their enhanced resolution, versus the image compression that takes place with component interfaces.

>> 4-Head/19-Micron Head System - Offers superior slow motion effects over conventional 2 head VCR designs. Toshiba’s 19-Micron Heads match precisely the width of the SP and SLP azimuths and read only the signal recorded on each azimuth (not adjoining tracks). The benefit is significantly enhanced SLP performance that is so good, it rivals the quality of tapes recorded in the SP Mode.

>> S-VHS Quasi Playback - This features will allow tapes that were recorded in a Super VHS deck to be played back in the Toshiba deck without a significant reduction in quality.

AUDIO

>> WMA & MP3 Playback - Recordable Compact Discs (CD-R & CD-RW) with music stored in either the Windows Media™ Audio or MP3 file formats can be enjoyed.

>> VHS Hi-Fi Stereo - Delivers the highest quality stereo sound from tapes

recorded with a high fidelity soundtrack. Can be used in conjunction with a surround sound receiver to create signature Dolby® Surround, Dolby® ProLogic, or Dolby® ProLogic II Surround sound in a home theater environment.

CONVENIENCE

>> Auto Clock - This feature ensures that your VCR never blinks “12:00” again. A special data stream in your local broadcast source (where available) automatically sets the clock display and keeps it accurate even when time changes to daylight savings and back.

>> Commercial Skip - After a program has been recorded, pressing the SKIP button once during playback will automatically advance the tape 30-seconds forward bypassing recorded commercials. Pressing the skip button on the remote again will advance the recorded tape for another 30-seconds for a total of 60-seconds.(30 sec x 6 Maximum).
