HDTV Resolution from Analog Media
What is an Up-Converting DVD Player? Not to get to technical, it is a DVD player that has the ability to convert ordinary DVD resolution into high definition resolution (720p/1080i) with the use of a HDMI cable.
Previously, DVD players only needed to provide low resolution outputs because televisions were analog and were only capable of low resolution. Today the demand for high resolution output is greater because more and more televisions are digital and are capable of HDTV (High Definition Television) resolution.
If you are someone that wants high end features in your DVD player such as the ability to provide clean and clear video and audio to your HD television the Oppo DV-970HD is one such Up-Converting DVD player.
For those that have not yet upgraded to HDTV, the DV-970HD is compatible with the standard resolutions of 480i and 576i. Don't let these numbers scare you. Television resolution is dependent upon how many lines of "interlaced" resolution that is available on the screen. For example, the higher number of lines making up the image the greater the resolution as in 480/576 (standard) versus 720/1080 (digital).
