Highlights

SmartClone

Philips remains on the forefront of making
installation as simple as possible. SmartClone
offers USB cloning, or on select models,
revolutionary RF cloning, which allows all TV’s
on property to be programmed in as little as five
minutes. Additional hardware is required to take
advantage of RF cloning.

Pro:Idiom™ Plus

Pro:Idiom™ was created for the hospitality
industry to protect first run movies and other
HD premium content from piracy. Philips
Pro:Idiom™ Plus televisions offer secure HD
content protection not only for PPV hotels, but
now also for stand alone properties. (Additional
fees may apply for stand alone use) (Pro:Idiom™
is a trademark of the Zenith Corp.)

VTrack™ forensic watermark

Philips VTrack™ watermarking embeds an
invisible forensic watermark in the signal, which
can be detected via software to trace pirated
content back to the source of recording. Philips
VTrack™ is the first solution that protects first
run movies and other premium content from
optical piracy, helping preserve the early release
window that hotels have always enjoyed.

MPEG-4 for HD

MPEG-4 (Moving Picture Experts Group H.264)
compression technology allows more HD

content to be delivered than ever before.
Satellite providers are already using MPEG-4 to
offer the choice of up to 150 national HD
channels and 1,500 local broadcast HD and
digital channels. Cable, broadcast, and
telecommunications providers are expected to
also migrate to the format, but with these Philips
TVs you are ready today!

Five Star Service

Philips offers unmatched commitment to
keeping your guest rooms in working order.
Our products are so reliable that we offer a
two-year advanced exchange warranty. In the
event that something does go wrong, we
guarantee to ship a replacement set to you,
within 72 hours during the first year.

SmartPower² and ESP

Our second generation power saving
technology allows the backlight intensity to be
dynamically adjusted by the system to reduce
the power consumption by up to 60%, saving
substantially on energy costs. In addition, Philips'
Energy Savings Programmability (ESP) allows the
set to turn itself off when not in use to save even
more energy when guests or maids leave
televisions on for long periods while the room is
vacant.

RoHS & Flame retardant housing

In additon to being lead-free and RoHS
compliant, Philips TVs have a special housing of
eco-friendly, non-brominated flame-retardant
materials. Independent tests carried out by
emergency fire services have shown that
whereas TVs can sometimes intensify fires
caused by external sources, Philips TVs will not
contribute to the fire.

SmartWindow

SmartWindow allows your guests the added
convenience of working on their laptop PC's on
one half of the screen while enjoying the TV
content of their choice on the other half. The
perfect balance of work and leisure.

Ambilight 2 Channel

Ambilight makes an impressive contribution to
the overall viewing experience by producing
ambient light to complement the colors and light
intensity of the on-screen image. It adds a new
dimension to the viewing experience,
completely immersing you into the content you
are watching. It creates ambiance, stimulates
more relaxed viewing, and improves perceived
picture detail, contrast and color. Ambilight
automatically and independently adapts its
colors according to the changing content on the
screen.
