Product details: VIDEO ENHANCEMENTS 10-bit 27mHz D/A Converter Every Toshiba DVD Player features a 10-bit Digital to Analog Converter (DAC). This system - four times more effective than conventional methods - transforms 8-bit data to 10-bits, thus preventing critical signal loss and ensuring superb reproduction and fidelity of highly detailed images. ColorStream® Component Video Outputs Toshiba, the first to introduce the benefits of component video, equips every DVD player with ColorStream® Component Video Outputs. It is the ideal connection between a digital video source and an analog display device. When connected to one of more than 30 Toshiba component video equipped TV's, the ColorStream® connection delivers outstanding detail and resolution, unmatched color purity, and a reduction of moire and other NTSC artifacts. Video Black Level Expansion and Pluge This essential image enhancing feature brings expanded contrast and the deepest blacks ever to all of our DVD players. The Black cutoff level is preset at 7.5 IRE (normal mode), adjustable to 0 IRE (expanded) for wider grey scale contrast. In addition, every Toshiba DVD player is capable of reproducing "Blacker than Black" Pluge signals - critical for setting proper - picture brightness levels. AUDIO ENHANCEMENTS HDCD® Decoding and Precision Filtering Toshiba DVD players outperform every CD player you've ever owned. With built-in HDCD® Decoding and a compatible HDCD® disc, audio resolution is extended to 20-bits. The result - a clean, dynamic and natural music presentation. Best of all, the built-in HDCD® precision filtering will also enhance the sound of your CD library . Built-in Dolby® Digital Decoding with 5.1Ch. Outputs For added flexibility and connectivity to your home theater audio system, selected players include the necessary compliment of analog audio outputs (six) to connect to your Dolby® Digital-Ready Receiver. User-controlled parameters included in the players allow you to customize the performance of your system to accommodate for speaker size, time management (delay) and bass management. 24 Bit/96kHz Audio Resolution Experience the high resolution performance of 2-channel 24-bit/96kHz encoded DVD audio discs. Utilizing higher word lengths and sample rates, they create a richer and more nuanced audio performance with smoother, less digitized transitions. Your regular DVDs and CDs will sound their very best. Spatializer N-2-2 Virtual Surround Sound Haven't made the investment in a Multi-Channel Surround Sound System yet? Relax - Spatializer N-2-2 patented 3-D digital signal processing enables you to enjoy the ambiance of a 5.1 channel encoded DVD from a two channel speaker system! You'll hear expansive wrap-around sound effects and a solid center channel image for stable, accurate dialogue reproduction - all from your stereo system or stereo television set - without incurring the "listener fatigue" that characterized earlier simulated surround sound systems. CONVENIENCE FEATURES New! Dual Disc Twin-Tray Transport Break out the popcorn and sit back for a double feature experience just like at the movie theater. The new Dual-Disc system allows you to load two DVD discs into the player at the same time and play them in succession. Or you might want to enjoy a movie followed by a CD - and vice versa. The options are yours. Additionally, while one disc is playing you can remove or replace the other one without stopping. It's the ultimate in double feature convenience. 4-Power Picture Zoom Zoom in for a closer look at your favorite subjects or analyze Hollywood special effects close up - all with a simple press of a button.

Enhanced digital processing of the zoomed video signal - another Toshiba first - permits a clear view during moving or freeze-frame playback.

A numeric readout corresponding to the scene provides you with sophisticated insight into how the movie was actually produced and encoded. Icon-Based On-Screen Display Intuitive and easy to navigate, colorful on-screen menus allow for easy operation. To control settings and features, simply highlight the desired function then use the cursor control to make your selection. With just the push of a button, you have quick and easy access to all of the features on your DVD player. Fluorescent Dimmer Selected models offer three brightness settings that let you dim the display to preserve the low light ambience of a home theater environment. Parallel Audio/Video Outputs Parallel Video Outputs that let you connect your Toshiba DVD player via Composite, S-Video or Component Video outputs and view simultaneous images from each connected monitor. This feature is ideal for multi-room applications. For added ease of connectivity all models feature Parallel Audio Output of analogue and digital audio signals. Plays DVDs, Video CDs and CDs For maximum convenience, the SD3109 can also play Video CDs and conventional Audio CDs. REMOTES Ergonomic Remote with Fluorescent Keypad Toshiba has consistently won the praise of reviewers for superior and intuitive remote control design. This year is no exception. Ergonomically designed with critically placed fingertip controls make for quick and easy learning and operation.
