Description:
The 42HP82 42-inch plasma television is primed for movie and sports fans, as well as for use as a centerpiece for home theater and home computing. The set offers a widescreen, portrait-thin chassis, full high-definition quality, and picture improvements for interlaced video signals (such as those from VCRs, cable boxes, and non-progressive-scan DVD players). Heading the great features is IDSC Digital 720P, which coverts all 480i and 480p signals (as from progressive-scan DVD players and DTV set-top boxes) to 720p. Frame, line, and pixel doubling are all used to create progressive, full-frame images from standard interlaced signals (such as composite-video signals from DVD players, VCRs, and camcorders). The set's amazing specs--including 1000:1 contrast ratio, 550 cd/m2 brightness, 0.89mm x 0.67mm pixel pitch, and 1,024 x 768 pixel resolution--put most LCD monitors to shame. A ColorStream HD component-video input provides the ultimate picture quality from high-resolution component-video signals (as from DVD players or satellite receivers). PC inputs include 15-pin RGB input, a DVI 1.0 input with high-bandwidth digital content protection (HDCP), and an RS-232 interface. TV modes consist of 480p, 480i, 525p, 525i, 625i, 625p, 720p, 1035i, and 1080i. PC modes consist of VGA, SVGA, XGA, SXGA, UXGA (4X3), W-VGA, and W-XGA (16x9). Cinema Mode (3:2 pulldown) circuitry identifies original film-based content from DVDs, then reassembles the frame sequence to more accurately reproduce the original 24-frame-per-second material. Four TheaterWide modes enable full-screen viewing of varying widescreen movie formats. Color temperature control provides three user-selectable color temperature settings for achieving the optimal white balance. This allows the customer to achieve the best picture quality in any viewing environment or personal picture preference. Digital Noise Reduction circuitry optimizes poor NTSC signals from antenna or cable.
