HDMI DivX playback
HDMI for simple AV connection
HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia
Interface. It is a direct digital connection that
can carry digital HD video as well as digital
multichannel audio. By eliminating the
conversion to analog signals it delivers perfect
picture and sound quality, completely free
from noise. HDMI is fully backward-compatible
with (Digital Video Interface) DVI.
Video Upscaling up to 1080i
With Video Upscaling you can increase the
resolution of SD (Standard Definition) video
signals that DVD uses to HD (High Definition)
so you’ll be able to see more details thanks to
a sharper, more true-to-life picture.The
resulting HD video output signal can be fed to
an HD display through HDMI (High-Definition
Multimedia Interface).
High definition JPEG playback
High definition JPEG playback lets you view
your pictures on your television in resolutions
as high as two megapixels. Now you can view
your digital pictures in absolute clarity, without
loss of quality or detail - and share them with
friends and family in the comfort of your living
room.
Progressive Scan
Progressive Scan doubles the vertical
resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably
sharper picture. Instead of sending a field
comprising the odd lines to the screen first,
followed by the field with the even lines, both
fields are written at one time. A full image is
created instantaneously, using the maximum
resolution. At such a speed, your eye perceives
a sharper picture with no line structure.

Multi-format playability allows you to play
most disc formats for maximum disc
compatibility and viewing pleasure.

RW, and DVD recordable discs. DivX Ultra
