Bullet points
(*1)
• HDMI
HDMI is the only interface in consumer electronics that can carry both uncompressed high-definition (HD) video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all
HD formats including 720p, 1080i and even 1080p. An all-digital, uncompressed
signal translates into the highest quality video and audio, seen and heard, direct
from the source. DVD-1740 scaling circuit supports up to 1080p.
• Progressive Scan
Progressive Scan technology represents a cast improvement over the interlaced
scanning method used in TV broadcasts and other conventional applications, as
it can process around twice as much video data to produce a sharper, noise-free
picture with finer details. High-definition video images are faithfully displayed with
optimum naturalness and beauty.
The DVD-1740 has a feature of manual IP detection mode selection. Even if a DVD-Video
disc was mastered with wrong progressive flag or without a flag, the user can select
a mode (Auto1, Auto2 or Video) to enjoy higher performance of picture quality.
• Picture Adjustment function
Brightness/Contrast/Colour/Gamma Correction/Sharpness
• DVD-R/RW Playback
With the spread of DVD recorders, consumers are increasingly recording TV programs onto DVD discs. These discs can be played back on the DVD-1740.
• CD-R/RW and DVD-R/RW (MP3/Windows Media Audio/JPEG/
Kodak Picture CD/DivX) Playback
The DVD-1740 supports the CD-R/RW and DVD-R/RW formats. It plays
finalised CD-R/RW and DVD-R/RW discs (single-session or multi-session) containing MP3/WMA9 audio files. It also reads still photos in the Kodak Picture CD
or JPEG format taken by a digital camera. WMA (Windows Media Audio) is an
audio compression format developed with Microsoft technology. It claims to offer
the highest quality sound available in the industry. If WMA is used to compress a
music CD on a PC, for instance, using the new Encoder 8, the quality of sound at
48 kbps is said to be equivalent to that of the original CD.
