About Blu-ray
Blu-ray is the latest version of the popular 5” optical
disc format that began with the CD. Blu-ray was made
possible by the development of a practical violet laser
whose light wavelength is shorter than the red lasers
used by CD and DVD players. This allows for a more
focused spot that can read smaller and more densely
packed pits that generate the “digital 1s and 0s” that
represent the picture and sound that is then decoded
by the player for viewing.
Blu-ray Disc has over 5 times the data capacity of
DVD. HD programs are protected by multiple layers
of DRM (Digital Rights Management or ‘Copy
Protection’) and can only be transmitted from Player
to TV Display by the encrypted HDMI interface.
High Definition playback requires that the entire
signal path be capable of digital bandwidth of 150
Megahertz. This means you’ll need the very latest
TV and AV Receiver as well as Category 2 HDMI
cables. Be sure the entire system supports “1080p”.
Get it all right and the result is stunning... especially
on screen sizes 50” and larger!
