How will I benefit from the H4000’s high definition video output?

If you own a HDTV (or any other high definition display device), you will only be able to play standard DVD titles to as high as 480p (NTSC progressive scan) or 576p (PAL progressive scan) resolution video input. However, your HDTV actually has the capacity to show images much greater than 480p or 576p. Therefore, you are not getting the most out of your HDTV’s resolution.

The H4000 upscaling DVD player allows you to upscale standard DVD titles as well as MPEG4 files to as high as 1080p resolution. With its range of resolution options, you are able to select from a large number of resolutions in order to that right match with your HDTV’s native resolution. The result is a noticeably sharper and clearer image on the screen.
