HDTV Monitor
HDTV is the latest and best television signal
available
. It produces picture quality more than
twice that of traditional analog broadcasts. In
order to effectively maximize the HDTV signal,
a television must incorporate advanced signal
input connectivity
Crystal Clear
Combining picture enhancements like
Co
ntrast plus and color improvement, Crystal
Clear improves picture depth.
Progressive Scan
Progressive Scan doubles the vertical
resolution of the image resulting in a noticeably
sharper picture. Instead of sending a field
comprising the odd lines to the screen first,
followed by the field with the even lines, both
fields are written at one time. A full image is
created instantaneously, using the maximum
resolution. At such a speed, your eye perceives
a sharper picture with no line structure.
3D Combfilter
The 3D comb filter separates brightness and
c
olor signals better in 3D domain to eliminate
cross-color, cross-luminance and dot-crawl
distortion - all of which detract from your
viewing pleasure. The 3D digital comb filter
performs field-by-field comparisons of the
television image to accurately separate the
color from the black-and-white information
and remove both horizontally and vertically
hanging dots, as well as dot crawl. The result is
a razor sharp image.
Active Control + Light Sensor
Active Control is a unique and intelligent way
o
f optimizing picture quality by measuring and
analyzing the incoming signal to automatically
adjust picture quality settings. Active Control
with Light Sensor uses a sensor to adjust the
picture brightness depending on the room light
conditions.
Virtual Dolby Surround
Virtual Dolby Surround is a processing
te
chnology for enhancing surround sound
effects. It will create the sensation of Dolby
Pro Logic without the necessity of additional
rear speakers. You become totally immersed
in your television experience.
4x3 Expand
4x3 Expand enables widescreen movies to be
view
ed on a 4:3 aspect ratio TV screen by
removing the black bars at the top and bottom
of the image. You are able to watch full-screen
movies without compromizing on picture
quality and resolution.
Smart Picture and Smart Sound
Philips preset modes for Smart Picture and
Smart Sound
provide you with direct access via
a single key on the remote control. You can
select optimized picture and sound settings for
the various picture and sound modes.

i
nterconnection standard for analog video. It is
sharper than S-video and composite video.

audio equipment, games and video cameras. It's
