A Guide to Digital TV

•What is Digital Television?

Digital television (DTV) is a new way of transmitting high quality video and audio to your TV set. Using DTV, broadcasters can transmit high definition TV (HDTV) images, Dolby digital surround audio, and new services such as multicasting (transmitting more than one program on the same TV channel) and datacasting. Several of these services can be combined into a single digital broadcast.

Digital Television Services

•Digital Picture Quality

DTV programs are transmitted in two different formats. The first is Standard Definition Television (SDTV) and the second is High Definition Television (HDTV).

•SDTV program formats include 480-line interlaced (480i) and 480-line progressive (480p) video. 480i programs are essentially a digital version of our current analog TV programs, while the 480p format offers improved image detail over 480i. Some 480p programs are broadcast in widescreen and are comparable to progressive-scan DVD movies in image quality.

•HDTV program formats include 1080-line interlaced (1080i) and 720-line progressive (720p). Both HDTV formats are always broadcast in widescreen, and offer much higher picture quality than SDTV.

•Dolby Surround Sound

With DTV, you can listen to a variety of Dolby digital audio formats from Dolby Surround 2.0 to Dolby Digital 5.1 surround, using your home audio system. Many HDTV programs are now broadcast with DD 5.1 soundtracks.

HL-S4666W, HL-S4266W, HL-S5666W, HL-S5066W, HL-S6166W specifications

The Samsung HL-S series of DLP televisions, including models HL-S6166W, HL-S5066W, HL-S5666W, HL-S4266W, and HL-S4666W, represent a prominent line of HDTVs that gained recognition for their picture quality, innovative technologies, and user-friendly features. These models, which vary by screen size and specifications, come equipped with a range of characteristics that cater to diverse viewing preferences.

One of the key features of the HL-S series is its DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology, which provides bright and vibrant images. DLP uses micro mirrors to project images, resulting in high contrast ratios and smooth motion handling, essential for action-packed movies and sports. The 1080p resolution offered by the HL-S models ensures that viewers enjoy a detailed and sharp picture, making it ideal for high-definition content.

Another notable aspect of the HL-S series is the incorporation of Samsung’s proprietary technology, including the "Clear Motion Rate" feature. This technology effectively reduces motion blur, providing a clearer picture during fast-moving scenes. With a 3D comb filter, these TVs can enhance color accuracy and image crispness, making scenes appear more realistic.

In terms of design, the HL-S models boast a sleek and modern aesthetic, with a thin profile that enables easy placement in various room settings. The front-facing speakers enhance the overall audio experience, complementing the high-quality visuals delivered by the DLP technology.

Connectivity options are abundant in the HL-S line, featuring multiple HDMI ports, component inputs, and a PC input, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of devices, such as gaming consoles, Blu-ray players, and computers. The inclusion of a built-in digital tuner means users can easily receive over-the-air broadcasts without needing additional equipment.

Moreover, these models are known for their long lifespan and minimal maintenance compared to traditional CRT televisions. Their energy-efficient design makes them a cost-effective choice over time, reducing electricity usage without sacrificing performance.

Overall, the Samsung HL-S6166W, HL-S5066W, HL-S5666W, HL-S4266W, and HL-S4666W televisions represent a blend of advanced technology, stylish design, and practical features, making them a popular choice among consumers looking for high-quality viewing experiences. Whether for movie nights, sports, or gaming, these DLP TVs deliver strong performance and impressive visuals that stand the test of time.
