An industry standard for connecting

high definition components, High

Definition Multimedia Interface™

transmits uncompressed digital video

and audio content over a single cable,

replacing the multiple cables required

with analogue AV connections.

Insight: High Definition TV

Get Ready for HDTV

• The display will accept HD signals

via component video and DVI or

HDMI interface.

The Technical Bit

As there is no conversion from digital

to analogue and back again (as with a

SCART lead for example), the original

digital quality is upheld.

High Definition TV is coming soon.

For example, in the UK both commercial

broadcasters and the BBC are already

filming some programmes in High

Definition. BSkyB has announced plans

to start HD broadcasts in 2006 while

many movie studios have committed to

producing movies on HD DVD. You will

need an HDTV receiver or HD DVD

player, but most importantly, you will

need a High Definition compatible TV.

• Current digital TV broadcast system

(PAL) offers 576 active lines of

picture information, sent as an

interlaced signal, reproducing around

210,000 pixels.

• HD component inputs that will accept

the following video formats:

a) 1280 x 720p and b) 1920x1080i

(at 50 and 60Hz).

HD Ready: three high-spec LCD TVs

with high resolution screens, 2x HDMI

and Component Video inputs, plus

integrated digital receivers (p.8)

HD Ready: three striking LCD TVs

with high resolution screens and HDMI

input (p.10)

HDMI™ dramatically simplifies home

cinema system installation and offers

numerous additional benefits including PC

compatibility, automatic format adjustment,

as well as automatic configuration of the

system to turn on or off the components

necessary to view a DVD, listen to a CD

or watch cable or satellite TV.

• There are three main HDTV

standards: 720p, which offers 720

lines of image, progressively scanned;

1080i, providing 1080 lines of

interlaced image; and 1080p, which

provides 1080 lines of progressively

scanned lines.

• A DVI or HDMI input with HDCP

copy protection support.

Available Now!

Toshiba already has a range of TVs and

projectors capable of displaying High

Definition broadcasts in all their glory

when they are available. In the

meantime, you can make the most of

the products’ high specifications and

their benefits.

What is HDTV?

• High Definition broadcasts carry two

million pixels of data signal - that’s

around eight times more picture detail

on the HDTV screen versus current

Digital broadcasts.

Insight:

Very simply, High Definition Television

is a digital system that gives you picture

quality that is vastly superior to current

broadcast systems. The improvement

in clarity, depth and sharpness of

images is instantly visible.

Screen Technology

High Resolution

Thanks to Digital TV, DVD and High Definition TV, the audio-visual quality of programmes available

is generally far superior to anything we have experienced in the home before. However, you need

to have the right equipment to enjoy this new level of home entertainment.

The resolution of a screen dictates

the amount of picture information you

will see. The more image data available,

the more detail in the display and the

greater your viewing experience. That’s

why all the widescreen LCD TVs in this

brochure have a minimum panel

resolution of 1280 x 720 (almost 1

million pixels). Potentially each pixel

can display different information,

so enhancing the colour, tone and

ultimately, the three-dimensionality of

the image displayed.

HDTV provides an average of eight

times more data on a display screen

than a standard definition broadcast

thanks to the increased picture

A new European industry-wide technical

standard has been defined for products

which will be able to display High

Definition images.

As pioneers of DVD and the new HD

DVD technologies, we have shown our

continuing commitment to bringing the

very latest advances in AV technology

into your home for your ultimate

Detail – Active Vision LCD can

than a conventional LCD TV.

What is Real Digital Picture

Processing?

Real Digital adds yet another dimension

to the picture processing technology by

reducing the number of signal separations

that normally occur in an LCD TV.

• A minimum native resolution of the

display or display engine (in the case

of DLP projectors, for example) is 720

lines in widescreen format.

Signal processing in current LCD TVs

has to pass through numerous separate

signal conversions before it arrives at

the panel processing chip. This process

and Real Digital picture processing, while

our range of DLP™ TVs and projectors

bring the full impact of cinema style

viewing into your living room.

Contrast – Active Vision LCD uses a

dynamic contrast enhancer to adjust

contrast levels automatically. While it is

important for an LCD TV to have a high

performance panel, for the best results it

is absolutely essential to have a high

performance picture processing system.

Toshiba’s new Real Digital picture

processing reduces the signal

separation stages, therefore

maintaining the original detail of

the signal, and enhancing the

picture performance.

What is Active Vision LCD?

Active Vision is a high performance

picture processing system designed

to produce a stunning picture by

enhancing four core elements of a

television image:

If the HDMI™ interface is used, the

signal is carried directly to the panel

signal processor as a digital signal,

and no picture separation occurs.

A DVD Recorder is little short of the ultimate in digital entertainment versatility. TV, home video, family photos,

Which format?

Timeslip

There are several different recording

formats. A DVD recorder records

video and audio optically onto discs.

Discs are available in different formats

and can be either ‘re-writable’ (DVD-

RAM, DVD-RW) or used only once

(DVD-R). A DVD hard disk recorder

offers the added benefit of a built-in

hard disk drive (HDD), as well as a

removable disc option.

Now you can make the TV schedule

fit in with your own schedule thanks

to the brilliant Timeslip feature that

gives you the option to ‘Chase’ or

‘Pause’ TV.

Hard Disk models also allow you to
