Product Description
Movie and music lovers, rejoice! This Toshiba SD3800 DVD player delivers everything you've been dreaming of. Digital Cinema Progressive delivers the smoothest, most film-like images to any progressive scan television, such as an HD-compatible one, and ensures maximum resolution. Parallel video output lets you connect your player via composite, S-video, and/or interlaced component video outputs and watch simultaneous images from each connected TV. The MP3 audio compatibility expands the players' functionality to include playback of custom music collections encoded via MP3 digital audio format onto CD-R or CD-RW media. NAVI graphical user interface uses graphical icons (instead of simple text) in a convenient menu display for quick access to key player functions. Superb performance and comfort - that's what marks this DVD player.
Amazon.com Product Description
Get the most from your DVDs and CDs with Toshiba's SD-3800 single-disc DVD player, whose ultimate Super ColorStream Pro progressive-scan component-video outputs produce seamless, flicker-free images with high-definition and HD-ready TVs. Built-in MP3 decoding let you compile music on your PC and listen to it on your stereo or TV, and you can even watch customized digital-picture slideshows using recordable CDs filled with standard JPEG image files.

Whether your living room is currently home to an HDTV or you're merely thinking of "someday," the SD-3800's Digital Cinema Progressive feature delivers the full potential of your DVDs. Progressive scanning, referred to as 480p for the number of horizontal lines that compose the video image, creates a picture using twice the scan lines of a conventional DVD picture, giving you higher resolution and sharper images while eliminating nearly all motion artifacts.

Digital Cinema Progressive also includes 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. Conventional composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television.

Grayscale in video is measured and tracked on a scale of 0 (black) to 100 (white) IRE units. A picture's NTSC video black cutoff level is traditionally assigned a 7.5 IRE value. The SD-3800's "expanded" mode lets the player output a 0 IRE signal for richer, deeper black tones in every image. PLUGE (Picture Line Up Generation Equipment) delivers black as well as below-black signals to televisions with exceptionally high contrast ratios.

The Toshiba Digital Photo Viewer lets you enjoy digital photographs on your television. The viewer supports a variety of popular digital formats, including Konica, Fuji Photo, Kodak Picture CD, as well as standard JPEG files created on a home PC. An intuitive onscreen display assists you in creating customized slideshows with just a few simple clicks of the remote. You can set the viewing time for each "slide," zoom in on parts of images, and rotate and pan the photos.

Onboard NAVI user interface uses graphical icons (rather than simple text) for quick access to key functions. The system includes an onscreen "virtual remote control," an angle viewer for titles encoded with multiple camera angles, preview for creation of thumbnail chapter views, strobe for a breakdown of a particular scene, and capture, which lets you choose custom wallpaper.

A set of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's digital-audio outputs (one each coaxial and optical) for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. The player's internal digital-to-analog converters work at 24-bit, 192 kHz resolution to ensure optimum sonic quality from a range of digital program material.

Enhanced Audio Mode (E.A.M.) offers three sound settings: normal (off), 3-D (virtual surround sound enhancement), and dialogue expander (which enhances center-channel frequencies in the range of human voices during playback of multichannel content). Other playback options include picture zoom (which lets you magnify a select area of an image) and parental lock.
