Description:
Samsung's 27-inch TXM2798HF DynaFlat high-definition digital TV monitor offers full 1080i input capability for use with a DTV set-top box or a DVD player. The set uses a 4:3-aspect ratio DynaFlat HDTV screen with an anti-distortion, anti-glare picture tube. The Pro Chip Plus NTSC-to-480-progressive-scan line-doubling system converts incoming analog sources (VCR, cable, non-progressive-scan DVD) to a progressive-scan 480p display, eliminating conventional TV scan lines for a "flicker free" picture. Total DSP (Digital Signal Processing) converts standard analog broadcast TV signals to digital and compensates for varying signal strengths, while Defining Filter three-line combing technology removes blurred edges between colors and reduces dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line). The set also includes an Invar shadow mask for heightened contrast. The TXM2798HF also offers 3:2 pulldown. DVD mastering introduces a common distortion when adjusting 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this distortion, removing the redundant information to display a film-frame-accurate picture. Velocity-scan modulation improves the definition at picture edges, creating sharper images by slowing the CRT (cathode-ray tube) beam's horizontal scanning during demanding work--say, when rendering transitions from light to dark parts of an image--and speeding it up when scanning easily rendered sections, like broad dark areas. Other features include two-tuner split-screen picture-in-picture, 10 watts per channel audio power (plus 25 watts for a built-in powered subwoofer), BBE high-definition sound (improves speech intelligibility and restores the dynamic range of compressed musical passages), V-Chip parental controls, and plug-and-play setup, which uses automation and a simple menu to select the source (broadcast or cable), set the clock, and map the active channels. Inputs consist of dual DVD/DTV component-video input (Y/Pb/Pr), an RF input (for an older VCR or cable box), and three rear and one set of side audio/video inputs (including one S-video input) to accommodate a camcorder, game console, or other sources. The set comes with a universal remote control.
