>> High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI™) - HDMI™ (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video connection. HDMI™ provides the best interface between a DVD player and compatible products, such as a digital television (DTV). When matched with a compatible TV, this single interconnecting cable combines: Multi-channel audio, uncompressed digital video, intercommunication between devices and simple control Protocols. This single cable connection ensures that all signals remain in their pure digital form and secure by use of High Definition Copy Protection (HDCP) regardless of signal output resolution.

>> Video Upconversion - 720p/1080i - HDMI™ can support uncompressed digital video up to HDTV level resolution. Thus, the player makes use of this conduit by up-converting the standard DVD picture resolution to nearly HDTV-quality with output resolutions of 720p or 1080i. This makes a DVD player with an HDMI™ connection the perfect match for today's digital televisions. And because this conversion is performed in the player, the signal remains free from excessive digital-to-analog conversion artifacts.

>> DivX® Home Theater Certified - DivX® Home Theater Certified allows playback of DivX (.div/.dvix), .AVI and MPEG4(.ASF) compressed files downloaded from the internet from a personal computer and stored on a CD-R/-RW. The support extends to full version of DivX 3.11, 4.12 and 5.x as well as DivX PRO, with video resolutions of 720 x 480 @ 30 fps and 720 x 576 @ 25 fps. Audio support for a multitude of formats including: MP3, AC-3 (2 ch and 5.1 ch), WMA, LCPM, ADPCM and Ogg Vorbis.

>> HD JPEG - Thanks to a specialize chipset (MPEG Decoder and Scaler) and the HDMI interface with an HDTV display, Megapixel JPEG images are displayed in their enhanced resolution, versus the image compression that takes place with component interfaces.

AUDIO

>> WMA & MP3 Playback - Recordable Compact Discs (CD-R & CD-RW) with music stored in either the Windows Media™ Audio or MP3 file formats can be enjoyed.

>> Super Audio CD Multi-Channel Playback - Offers playback of SA-CD discs recorded using Direct Stream Digital (DSD) encoding technology. The frequency response delivered by DSD is almost five times greater than that delivered by a normal CD. And, up to 70-80 minutes of both stereo and multi-channel DSD content can be encoded on a disc. Enjoy a dynamic range of 120dB compared to 96dB on CD for an exciting audio experience.

>> 5.1 Channel Output with Bass Management - Onboard decoding of Dolby®Digital, DVD-Audio, and SA-CD content with control of independent channel parameters including control for bass reproduction.
