HDMI DVD Player provides the highest standard for both audio and video quality, this slim DVD Player includes many excellent features, such as HDMI interface and DivX Ultra Certification.

HDMI
High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is the first and only digital interface to combine uncompressed high-definition video, multi-channel audio and intelligent format and command data in a single digital interface. HDMI switching, providing the most advanced method of delivering high quality video signals to a home theater system to enable the reproduction of DVD and satellite TV sources with HD quality. Compatible with the HDMI Ver. 1.1 format, it can also decode digital audio signals from sources such as DVDAudio, CD, Dolby Digital and DTS.

DVD Video
DVD is essentially a large capacity optical video storage media that contains movies or other video content for home entertainment. DVD has become the standard for video publishing by most movie and video studios.

CD Digital Video
DVD Players equipped with CD Digital Video capabilities will be able to play video and sound media that has been compressed together and recorded onto a CD disc.

Video CD
DVD Players equipped with Video CD capabilities will be able to play video and sound media that has been compressed together using the MPEG 1 standard, and recorded onto a CD disc.

Dolby Digital
The most popular 5.1-channel home theater sound system. An improvement over Dolby Pro-Logic in that it offers: 1) Full frequency response in all channels (3Hz — 20kHz), 2) discrete surround channels, and 3) a separate track for bass only, called the Low Frequency Effects channel.

DTS Digital Out
DVD player equipped with dts surround optical-digital and coaxial-digital output.

DivX
DivX is the video compression codec developed by DivX Networks and based on the MPEG-4 compression format. Its balance of high video quality and low bit rate has made it very popular and quickly established it as the best home video format thus far. The ability to play it on newer DVD models continues to add to its popularity as DivX Networks advances its support to many new household products. This compression technology has the potential for expanding the ways we view video media in much the way MP3 has given us many new ways to listen to music.

5 out of 5 stars Nice player   October 11, 2008
I picked this player up 2nd hand for my bedroom. I'm bit of a Yamaha fanatic and got a good price. I was pleasantly surprised by the player, picture quality was excellent and it integrated perfectly with my Yamaha AV receiver as you would expect.

I also own an OPPO in my main room, it's definitely got the edge but I paid almost 4x the amount... If you want a good quality player for a reasonable price this is a good choice, I've not found any problems.....



3 out of 5 stars Good but could be better   May 29, 2008
The picture quality is unmatched to be sure. My only beef with this item is that it takes a long time between commands. For instance, to open the door takes a while. It takes a long time to load the DVD and the dial is not that bright. If you consider those items minor, but this set. Since you deal with them alot, it can be annoying.


4 out of 5 stars Great DVD Player!   February 11, 2008

I recently purchased a 50" plasma TV and wanted better picture from my DVDs. This is it! The picture from this player is so much better than I was getting from my old DVD player. I own DVD players that are S-Video as well as 480 composite video, and neither of them even come close. The only problem I have had is that DVDs that I recorded on my DVD recorder must have a slightly different audio format because they won't play audio over the digital audio output on this unit. I solved that problem though by turning on the HDMI audio output when I am playing these DVDs and it works fine. All in all, a great unit and I got it at a great price as well!

If you are a recent convert to HD as I was you will find this player to your liking. DVD's are sharp and the sound fantastic. And speaking of sound, check out the fact that this deck can play DVD Audio as well as SACD. You're not going to come close to the capabilities of this unit for the price. Terrific deal.
