Highlights

DVP5900/37

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
res

olution 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.

192kHz/24 bit audio DAC

192KHz sampling enables you to have an
accurate representation of the original sound
curves. Together with a 24-bit resolution,
more information is captured from the original
analogue sound wave form, giving a much
richer audio reproduction.
