Product Description
With screen sizes ranging from 14 - 42 inches and a selection of 4: 3 LCD, 16: 9 HD LCD and 16: 9 HD Plasma models, Toshiba's flat panel series includes TV models to fulfill a broad range of needs and tastes. Toshiba engineers focused on two key issues; creating true-to-life picture quality, and designing sleek, sculptured cabinetry that will accentuate the finest home decor.The Toshiba 42HP83 model features many of the exclusive Toshiba technologies that are found in its CRT based TV sets such as DVI-HDTV inputs for uncompressed, pure digital video, Toshiba's new CrystalScan HDSC all-time HD scan conversion system, CableClear DNR+ video noise reduction which reduces video noise for a clean, crisp image, as well as Cinema Mode (3: 2 Pull Down), color temperature control, color detail enhancer, HD Dynamic Contrast and movie and sports modes.While priding itself on superior picture quality, Toshiba's expanded flat panel line reveals a new focus on cosmetic design. In particular, the 16: 9 HD flat panel models showcase a stunning arch design, a new modern look that when hung on the wall, resembles a piece of fine art. All of Toshiba's flat panel sets may sit on a table, or be mounted on a wall. The sound quality of Toshiba's flat panel TVs is as dynamic as its picture. In addition to the MTS Stereo/SAP with dbx and SRS WOW Sound Enhancement Technology, the widescreen models also feature Virtual Dolby creating a realistic surround experience without additional speakers. Convenience features such as new HD Window Multiscan POP, and an Illuminated A/V universal remote control that can operate up to six components including DVD and audio devices round out the package.
Amazon.com Product Description
Note: Toshiba 42HP83P 42" TheaterWide HD-Ready Plasma Flat-Panel TV is no longer being manufactured. You may want to consider purchasing the newer Toshiba 42HP84 42" TheaterWide HD-Ready Flat-Panel Plasma TV instead.

With its 16:9 widescreen, portrait-thin chassis, full high-definition resolution, and picture improvements for sub-HD sources such as VCRs, cable boxes, and non-progressive-scan DVD players, Toshiba's 42HP83 42-inch plasma television is primed for both movie and sports fans.

With a plasma screen you get vivid colors like you've never seen before, extremely wide viewing angles (wider, even, than LCD screens), and easy placement due to a plasma monitor's slim size--the 42HP83 is a mere 4.9 inches deep, perfect for desk or wall mounting (a table stand is included). Brightness tends to be extremely uniform across plasma screens, which are also impervious to the picture distortion and negative color balances that afflict CRT monitors when placed in close proximity to lighting or sound systems. The set's amazing specs include an LCD-shaming 1,000:1 contrast ratio, 340 cd/m2 brightness, and 1,024 x 768 resolution.

Heading up the great features is CrystalScan HDSC, which coverts all signals--including 480p--to full 1080i resolution. 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 process reduces jagged-line artifacts for a smoother, more natural image. Selectable 540p, for those who want to display a progressive-scan image from a progressive-scan source, is available via the handy onscreen menu.

HD Dynamic Contrast continually analyzes picture information and enhances those parts of the picture with the most detail information which results in a sharper, deeper, more film-like images. The 42HP83's 3D Y/C (4 MB, 10-bit) digital comb filter further enhances resolution by removing blurred edges between colors and reducing dot crawl (tiny, moving dots of color along a sharp color separation in a vertical line, as in a depiction of a character's striped T-shirt).

A pair of ColorStream HD component-video inputs provide the ultimate picture quality from high-resolution component-video signals, like those from DTV set-top boxes, progressive-scan DVD players, or satellite receivers. Other connections include a direct-digital DVI input with high-bandwidth digital content protection (HDCP), three each composite- and S-video inputs, and a composite-video output (with both fixed- and variable-level audio outs) for use with a VCR or surround receiver.

HD Window multiscan 2-tuner POP (picture-on-picture) accepts 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i signals and can even display two different-resolution signals simultaneously. The split-screen function lets you adjust the size of the POP boxes and will even let you view both 16:9 and 4:3 images at the same time. The set's seven MultiWindow system makes it possible to see the main picture while viewing your favorites or doing a channel scan in seven smaller boxes.

When hooked up to the IR output, the supplied TheaterLink IR dongle lets you operate up to six video components by simply pointing the remote at the TV screen, even if the components are hidden away in cabinets or out of view.

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 picture modes enable full-screen viewing of varying widescreen movie formats, while color temperature control provides three selectable temperature settings for achieving an optimum white balance.

What's in the Box
TV, table stand, remote control, remote batteries, IR dongle (for use with set's TheaterLink IR capability), user's manual, and registration/warranty information.
