Main Features  

·  DVD-Audio Decoding And Playback  via the 6 Channel Audio Outputs. This new audio format, an extension of DVD-Video technology, fulfills the promise of excellence in digital audio reproduction. Stereophiles will be delighted by the resolution and warmth of 2-channel 24-bit 192kHz recordings. DVD-Audio also includes the capability for multi-channel audio, creating a new sound palette for jazz fusion, new age, contemporary urban, and many more genres of music. Multi-channel audio reproduces the ambience missing from previous recordings, so listeners can actually hear the “air” in the theater as the openness and subtle reflections become more evident. Live recordings sound more authentic than ever—you’ll hear the audience in the background and the band onstage. And DVD-Audio supports text displays, slide show displays, and even full-motion video.

·  Super ColorStream Pro™ Progressive Output offers significant enhancement to the picture quality of progressive video outputs. Utilizing a new digital filter, it enables four times oversampling of color signals, producing unsurpassed color detail and purity. A 54MHz video encoder ensures low noise and an artifact-free picture. As a result of these advancements, player resolution is extended to 540 lines, with incredible color resolution and picture detail.

·  480-Progressive Signal Output provides 480-line progressive (non-interlaced) full frame resolution performance to compatible 480-p capable displays. The result is a more film-like image, with enhanced brightness and contrast, deeper color resolution and fidelity. As DVDs are mastered in 480-p, you can enjoy the flicker-free images the movies are engineered with.

·  High-Mass Vibration Resistant Copper Shielded Chassis provides distinct sonic and performance benefits. Damping of vibration is achieved by the increased mass of the cabinet, and by using specially combined materials. Because it resists the influence of magnetic flux, a copper-shielded chassis reduces distortion in the video image. Sonic performance reveals a distinct absence of unwanted colorations.

·  ColorStream Pro™ Progressive Component Video Output  delivers the ultimate in DVD picture performance and integrity to compatible display devices, such as multiscan-capable Toshiba TheaterWide™ projection televisions. DVD discs are mastered as 480p signal. Connecting a DVD player with ColorStream Pro™ to a compatible display device produces a flicker-free image with enhanced vertical and temporal resolution. The near film-like images of a 480p picture are brighter and the 60 frame per second display takes advantage of the full resolution capability of a DVD disc, delivering film-like images.

·  Dolby Digital® and DTS™ Optical & Coaxial Outputs When connected to a receiver or amplifier with a Dolby Digital or DTS decoder through either the optical or coaxial digital outputs, you can enjoy the phenomenal experience of video through five discrete full range channels, whether for stunning sound effects or crystal clear dialogue.

·  Dolby® Digital (AC-3) Decoder allows you to experience the thrills of today's stunning Hollywood soundtracks right in your family room. By decoding five discrete audio channels, plus a separate subwoofer channel for dynamic low bass performance, Dolby Digital delivers crisp dialogue, breathtaking movement across the soundstage, and thunderous special effects.

·  DTS® Compatibility  allows the DVD player to pickup and output DTS (Digital Theater System) 5.1 channel audio signals for decoding by DTS-decoding receivers. The sound of DTS is three-dimensional with a wide dynamic range and a minimum of compression artifacts.

·  S-Video and Composite Video Outputs provide connection flexibility in conjunction with the ColorStream® component video outputs.

·  10-Bit 54 MHz Video D/A Conversion with Super 4:4:4 Processing  reduces artifacts, providing an improvement over conventional systems by a power of four. This new DAC employs a 54MHz clockspeed, and built-in 4:4:4 filtering to provide unsurpassed color purity, color detail, and resolution.

·  24-Bit 192 kHz Advanced Delta Sigma Audio DACs  designed in conjunction with Analog Devices ®, produces stunning resolution from PCM-encoded 24-bit 192kHz content. Dynamic range levels (the headroom between the quietest and the loudest elements on the disc) are extended to an incredible 117 decibels, and total harmonic distortion is reduced to less than 0.0008%. A key element to obtaining this performance is the adaptive multiport parallel configuration, which allows two-channel content to be parallel-processed through the three independent audio DACs. This system is provides the ability to decode high-resolution 24-bit 192kHz two-channel DVD-Audio content.

·  3-D Digital Noise Reduction is a frame-correlative and frame-buffer technology precisely identifies and digitally filters randomly occurring noise in the video signal without sacrificing picture detail or resolution. 3-D DNR reduces the effects of motion-based artifacts and “blocking noise.” Most important, 3-D DNR enhances screen transparency and represses image flicker.

·  Angle Viewer allows for increased usability with Multi-angle encoded DVDs. Scenes in filmed entertainment may be shot from multiple camera angles, each providing a unique perspective. DVD allows, at the director's discretion, up to nine different camera angles to be recorded on a disc. The Angle Viewer lets you display thumbnail samples from each available angle on-screen—in conjunction with a live image. The compass cursor on the remote control allows you to select the camera angle you prefer to view.

·  Audio Direct/Video On Switch allows you to turn off the video circuitry when operating the unit as an audio-only player, reducing cross-talk noise and interference from video signal processing.

·  Discrete Internal Circuitry provides less noise, higher fidelity, and cleaner signal paths by physically separating the power supply, digital circuitry, and analog A/V processors within the chassis.

·  Dolby Digital® 5.1 Channel Surround Sound Compatibility  delivers all the incredible sound that Hollywood can put on a DVD to a receiver equipped with a Dolby Digital decoder. Dolby Digital provides six separate discrete audio channels: left, right and center front, right and left surround, and a low frequency subwoofer channel as a listener option. Dolby Digital is the first perceptual coding scheme designed specifically to code multichannel digital audio. It divides sizes optimized with respect to the frequency selectivity of human hearing. This makes it possible to sharply filter coding noise and reduce data consumption while delivering dynamic theater quality sound. Unlike Dolby Pro-Logic surround, Dolby Digital channels are entirely discrete, with five full frequency (20-20KHz) channels and one low frequency effects subwoofer (20-120Hz) channel. DVD players with Dolby Digital capability are also compatible with Pro-Logic surround and two channel stereo systems.

·  Metal Faceplate  enhances overall chassis stability while providing long-term elegance.

·  Virtual Remote Control allows one to simply press the VIRTUAL key on the handheld remote control which displays a Virtual Remote Control on-screen, overlapping a portion of the video display. The user may navigate the optional commands of the “Virtual Remote” by pressing the compass cursor keys and the ENTER key on the handheld remote. Besides basic playback commands, the user may display the operating status of the player and change languages. This feature is ideal for basic menu navigation in a low-light home theater environment, and is also a positive enhancement for people who require a larger visual display to execute commands.

It's like getting a high-end CD player to go along with the great DVD performance.  

Video Features  

·  Bit-Rate Meter provides a display of the average bit-rate being used to decode the video from scene to scene, giving you an quantifiable indication of the effort put into the mastering process. Serious moviephiles will enjoy using it to compare transfers of various films.

·  Double Speed Playback with Audio allows you to rapidly scan through the disc while the audio remains intelligible.

·  Video Black Level Expansion with Pluge is an essential image enhancing feature for expanding contrast and producing the deepest blacks available in any video format. The Black cutoff level ranges from 7.5 IRE NTSC standard to 0 IRE for wider gray scale contrast, which delivers more vibrant colors. Plus, the system is capable of reproducing "Blacker than Black" Pluge signals , critical for setting proper picture brightness levels.
