Draft
Blu-ray 3D Disc playback
Full HD 3D provides the illusion of depth for a
heightened, realistic cinema viewing
experience at home. Separate images for the
left and right eyes are recorded in 1920 x 1080
full HD quality and alternately played on screen
at a high speed. By watching these images
through special glasses that are timed to open
and close the left and right lenses in
synchronization with the alternating images,
the full-HD 3D viewing experience is created.
DivX Plus HD Certified
DivX Plus HD offers the latest in DivX
technology to let you enjoy HD videos and
movies from the Internet direct to your Philips
HDTV or PC. DivX Plus HD supports the
playback of DivX Plus content (H.264 HD
video with high-quality AAC audio in an MKV
file container) while also supporting previous
versions of DivX video up to 1080p. DivX Plus
HD for true HD digital video.
DVD video upscaling
HDMI 1080p upscaling delivers images that are
crystal clear. DVD movies in standard
definition can now be enjoyed in 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 analog - delivering perfect
picture and sound quality, completely free
from noise.
Dolby TrueHD
Dolby TrueHD deliver the finest sound from
your Blu-ray Discs. Audio reproduced is
virtually indistinguishable from the studio
master, so you hear what the creators
intended for you to hear. Dolby TrueHD
complete your high definition entertainment
experience.
USB 2.0
The Universal Serial Bus or USB is an industry
standard that allows high-speed, easy
connection of peripherals to PCs, consumer
electronics and mobile products. The USB 2.0
provides better and faster performance - up to
40 times quicker than the USB 1.0 and with a
data transfer rate of up to 480 Mbps from the
original 12 Mbps. When plugged in, everything
configures automatically. With USB 2.0, simply
plug in your USB portable devices or hard disk
drives, select the movie, music or photo and
play away.
EasyLink
EasyLink lets you control multiple devices with
one remote. It uses HDMI CEC industry-
standard protocol to share functionality
between devices through the HDMI cable.
With one touch of a button, you can operate
all your connected HDMI CEC enabled
equipment simultaneously. Functions like
standby and play can now be carried out with
absolute ease.
Subtitle Shift
Subtitle Shift is an enhancement feature that
lets users manually adjust a movie's subtitle
positioning on the television or computer
screen. Using the remote control, users can
shift the subtitles up and down on the screen.
On widescreen displays, such as 21:9 cinema
and projectors, the subtitles sometimes get cut
off. In order to see them clearly, the user has
to change the display aspect ratio, which
defeats the purpose of the widescreen. With
the Subtitle Shift feature, the user can retain
the correct display aspect ratio and have the
subtitles ideally positioned on the screen.
