HD ready

The HD ready label classifi es the technical features of LCD TVs and their ability to show high resolution television pictures (HDTV). The European Information, Communications and Consumer Electronics Technology Industry Association (EICTA) has defi ned the guidelines for HD ready certifi cation:

In a 16:9 wide-screen format, the display must have a physical vertical picture resolution of at least 720 lines.

The electronics must be able to process analogue as well as digital signals for high resolution video pictures.

A high-quality component input (YUV) with a progressive picture display must be available for analogue picture signals.

HDMI or DVI connections can be used for digital picture signals.

The digital connections must be coupled with the HDCP copy protection system.

Full HD with 1920 x 1080 pixels

Full HD means “high defi nition television”. This refers to the characte- ristics of a HDTV compatible television which is able to generate the highest possible HD resolution of 1:1. The best televisions have the highest possible resolution in High Defi nition, namely 1920 x 1080 pixels in full screen.

Motion Compensation

Digital 3D comb fi lter

On old TV sets the picture often shows shimmering colour distortions in fi ne structures such as found on coarsely-woven or checked material. To minimize this distortion, a state-of-the-art 3D comb fi lter is integrated as part of Grundig's picture improvement concept for the HD Evolution LCD TVs.

Digital ColourTransition Improvement (DCTI) and Digital Luminance Transition Improvement (DLTI)

In addition to the digital 3D comb fi lter, there is the Digital Colour Transition Improvement (DCTI) and the Digital Luminance Transition Improvement (DLTI), which are also part of the Grundig picture improvement concept. DCTI improves the colour display on the screen as it counteracts the “blurring” of colours. DLTI heightens the black and white contours on the television picture and improves the differences in brightness on the screen.

Larger viewing angle

The larger viewing angle of 178° allows you to enjoy the picture quality of the Grundig HD Evolution LCD TVs from practically any camera angle without losing any colour or brightness. Just what you

HDMI/DVI

HDMI (High Defi nition Multimedia Interface) is the digital connection of the future. An HDMI cable transmits signals for digital pictures, digital surround sound and digital appliance control. The digital picture connection must have the state-of-the-art HDCP copy protection system (High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection). Digital Video Interface (DVI) is an interface for digitally transferring video data – for LCDs with DIGI 200 chassis and for digital audio signals. Using a DVI input on the television, signals from digital sources such as a HDD recorder or a DVD player are processed. Complete digital transmission means you gain signifi cant improve- ments in the picture quality compared to a SCART cable connection. Converting from digital to analogue and back to digital is no longer necessary when using DVI.

Progressive Scan (YUV)

Progressive Scan is technology for the picture structure on television sets. The television is fed with real full frames instead of the usual alternate fi elds. The picture is then sharper and smoother and

ickering is completely eliminated. To get this connection, television sets require a source that can transmit the Progressive Scan pictures (such as a DVD player) either an analogue VGA or YUV input (Component Video) or a digital DVI or HDMI connection.

Grundig has been the fi rst to achieve the technology for Full HD with Motion Compensation, which provides outstanding picture quality for natural motion and even for fast movements, such as in sports. For every two movement phases, the device calculates a third and inserts it between them. This makes the picture smoother, sharper and more detailed. Above all, this eliminates the blurring and jerking motions which often occur during fast camera movements.

Digital Reference Plus II technology

The picture improvement technology, Digital Reference Plus II optimises the control for each individual pixel in the signal proces- sing, and simultaneously recognises and removes picture faults.

Virtual Dolby® Surround

Virtual Dolby® Surround is technology developed by Dolby that simulates the sound of a surround system on your television loudspeakers. Dolby Surround Effect was created as an innovative, electronic solution which is integrated in the television and only requires two loudspeakers.

System remote control PR 100/TP170 C

Four in one – the system remote control replaces up to four remote controls and can operate all the functions of your television, DVB receiver, HDD/DVD recorder and DVD player. The remote control is specially designed for our high-class range of televisions.
