Benefit: Provides greater contrast and richer black tones.

Benefit: Enables the display of digital photographs captured in the JPEG format. Simply load the CD with your favorite photos and create custom slide shows with a few simple clicks of the player's remote control.

Benefit: This interactive DVD feature allows you to select an area of the picture you want to zoom in on and magnify it. Enhanced digital processing during moving video or freeze-frame playback produces superior color fidelity and resolution, even when you're zoomed in. Also can be used to expand letterbox-only films to increase the viewable area on-screen.

Benefit: Provides smoother, clearer picture from discs encoded at 24 frames per second. Especially useful for highly detailed or fast-moving images.

Benefit: Since all of the audio decoding is done internally, you are assured that all of today's most popular formats are processed including the signature Dolby Digital®, Digital Theater Systems (DTS®), as well as Dolby's latest matrix surround system, ProLogic II - offering a full-bandwidth stereo surround output.

Benefit: This feature packs a punch with 400 total watts of power. 60-watts per channel for all five main channels (Left, Center, Right, Left Rear, Right Rear), and additional 100-watt output is reserved for the sixth (subwoofer) channel.

Benefit: Play recordable Compact Discs (CD-R & CD-RW) with music stored in either the Windows Media™ Audio or MP3 file formats can be enjoyed.

Benefit: These outputs allow the highest quality video signal to be sent from the DVD player to a component video equipped progressive scan TV. When this connection is utilized with today's HD-compatible sets, typical NTSC artifacts-like video noise, dot crawl, and flicker-are virtually eliminated, resulting in a lownoise, highly detailed picture with unequaled color purity.
