Highlights
Blu-ray Disc/ DVD player
DivX Plus HD USB2.0 Media Link, DVD video upscaling
Blu-ray Disc playback
Blu-ray Discs have the capacity to carry high
definition data, along with pictures in the 1920 x
1080 resolution that defines full high definition
images. Scenes come to life as details leap at you,
movements smoothen and images turn crystal
clear. Blu-ray also delivers uncompressed
surround sound - so your audio experience
becomes unbelievably real. The high storage
capacity of Blu-ray Discs also allow a host of
interactive possibilities to be built in. Seamless
navigation during playback and other exciting
features like pop-up menus bring a whole new
dimension to home entertainment.
DVD video upscaling
HDMI 1080p upscaling delivers images that are
crystal clear. DVD movies in standard definition
can now be enjoyed in high definition resolution
- ensuring more details and more true-to-life
pictures. Progressive Scan (represented by "p" in
"1080p') eliminates the line structure prevalent
on TV screens, again ensuring relentlessly sharp
images. To top it off, HDMI makes a direct digital
connection that can carry uncompressed digital
HD video as well as digital multi-channel audio,
without conversions to analog - delivering
perfect picture and sound quality, completely
free from noise.
Netflix
Instantly watch TV episodes and movies as often
as you want on your Philips TV. All you need is
an internet connection (either Wi-Fi or
Ethernet) and a Netflix membership package
that includes streaming, and you are ready to go.
Direct remote Netflix and Vudu
To speed up the process, and make it more
user-friendly, there are Netflix and VUDU
shortcut buttons on remote control that allow
you to do the basic commands necessary both
for watching your video and for controlling the
general interface.
DivX Plus HD Certified
DivX Plus HD on your Blu-ray player and/or
DVD player offers the latest in DivX technology
to let you enjoy HD videos and movies from the
Internet direct to your Philips HDTV or PC.
DivX Plus HD supports the playback of DivX
Plus content (H.264 HD video with high-quality
AAC audio in an MKV file container) while also
supporting previous versions of DivX video up
to 1080p. DivX Plus HD for true HD digital
video.
Dolby TrueHD
Dolby TrueHD deliver the finest sound from
your Blu-ray Discs. Audio reproduced is
virtually indistinguishable from the studio
master, so you hear what the creators intended
for you to hear. Dolby TrueHD complete your
high definition entertainment experience.
Subtitle Shift
Subtitle Shift is an enhancement feature that lets
users manually adjust a movie's subtitle
positioning on the television or computer
screen. Using the remote control, users can shift
the subtitles up and down on the screen. On
widescreen displays, such as 21:9 cinema and
projectors, the subtitles sometimes get cut off.
In order to see them clearly, the user has to
change the display aspect ratio, which defeats
the purpose of the widescreen. With the
Subtitle Shift feature, the user can retain the
correct display aspect ratio and have the
subtitles ideally positioned on the screen.
