Premium Performance for Vision and Sound

BLU-RAY DISC PLAYERS

This is an advanced function newly added to the Blu-ray Disc
specifi cations that creates a range of exciting new entertainment
possibilities. It introduces attractive functions such as Picture-in-Picture
(which displays a second image in a sub-window) and Audio Mixing
(enabling you to switch the sound between the main and sub-windows).
The BONUSVIEW allows new kinds of bonus movie content.
* Actual functions vary depending on the BD media.
PICTURE-IN-PICTURE
With Picture-in-Picture, a small sub-window is displayed over the
main image thus opening a world of additional opportunities.
AUDIO-MIXING
The Audio-Mixing function lets you choose which soundtrack you would
like to listen to: the one from the content playing in the main window,
the one from the sub-window, or both at the same time.
FUTURE FUNCTIONS
The future is expected to bring a host of imaginative new features.
For example, you may be able to purchase and download additional
content from a website onto an SD card, and play the movie on the
Blu-ray Disc and the content on the SD card at the same time, for
new entertainment possibilities.
TECHNOLOGY
P4HD processes more than 15 billion pixels per second
and applies the optimal processing to every pixel. It
can render progressive images superbly, expresses
motion smoothly, and draws crisp diagonal lines.
