DVD Player DV-983H

DVD Player DV-983HAll thought the arrival of high-definition disc formats and HDTVs would signal the end for the DVD, but thanks to improving the quality scale upscaling DVD players he had not quite turned out that way. Key price; most budget DVD upscalers allow people to squeeze the most possible image quality from their existing collections of films without paying a high price ask Blu-ray player, which for many is cause enough to put true greetings from Ok - back burner.

This, of course, makes perfect financial sense, but that difficult to understand why anyone would be willing to buy a DVD player that costs the same, if not more, than Blu-ray player, when Blu-ray decks do very good work in scale upscaling DVDs themselves - as well as delivering true 1080p, of course. The answer lies in those two words, 'good' - we have yet to see welcomed Ok, that the player upscales DVD-ROM drive with panache quite the same as, say, Denon DVD-1940 or the Pioneer DV-LX50, and therein lies the point. If you want better DVD pictures she always best to leave it in the car, whose sole purpose is to cope DVD, and not one that makes it as a sideline nifty.

It is there DV-983H from the U.S. comes in. opportunities mark in more than £ 300 more expensive than your average DVD-player, but is astounding array of internal components designed to squeeze the best performance of the DVD, but as pride awe-inspiring element list. We were very impressed by opportunities in the previous two players (DV-980H and DV-981HD), but on paper it looks like this flagship model could blow them both out of the water. Let us know…

What will excite fans of serious home theater is the inclusion of Anchor Bay in the last video of Reference Series (VRS) technology, courtesy of ABT102 chipset which is de-interlacing and progressive cadence detection and ABT1018 chip, which primarily handles video scaling. These superior chipsets should take any kind of video in their step and make sure that the picture is free from scaling and deinterlacing artifacts.

Other features offered by ABT1018 chip include personnel conversion, which converts PAL to NTSC without loss of resolution, plus proportions and video scaling, which allows to adapt the source material to fill the screen or black trim.

On the outside deck design is not a radical departure from the previous two models of pride same brush black fascia, meaty quality and ultra-thin size. There are several differences - the menu direction pad was jettisoned and the port USB 2,0 (more on that later) was moved from front to back. But in general, this classy, that the machine looks and feels exactly as it should for the money. (via)
