Take your favorite entertainment on the road with you and keep your kids
entertained during long car trips with the slim-profile Toshiba SD-P2800
portable DVD player with 9-inch LCD screen with 180-degree flip and
swivel functionality. Its active matrix TFT LCD has a 480 x 234-pixel
resolution with a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio for watching movies in
the format they were made to be watched, built-in stereo speakers, and a
single headphone jack. You can view movies on an external TV set via the
component video output, which provides optimal connection for watching
progressive scan DVDs. It also offers AV and S-Video output connections
for TV sets that don't have a component input. And it provides Dolby
Digital surround sound decoding via the digital coaxial audio output
connection. It includes dual headphone jacks so you can share your movie experience
with a partner, a rechargable battery with up to 4 hours of battery life,
and a cigarette lighter adapter for powering the player while in the
car. In addition to DVD movie and CD audio discs, it's also compatible
with DVD-R, CD-R/RW and VCD discs. You can play discs burned with MP3
and WMA digital audio files, and it's also DivX Home Theater
Certified--meaning that it's compatible with video burned to disc using
both the DivX video format. You can also view photo slideshows from
Kodak Picture CDs with JPEG images. The integrated multi-format memory
card slot is compatible with Secure Digital (SD), MultiMedia (MMC),
Memory Stic, and XD Picture Card formats, enabling you to view JPEG
images and unencrypted MP3/WMA audio.
With the Digital Picture Zoom interactive feature, you can select an
area of the picture you want to zoom in on and magnify it. It can also
be used to expand letterbox-only films to increase the viewable area
on-screen. Other convenience features include slow motion (1/8, 1/4,
1/2), parental locks, and 3D virtual surround sound. It includes both
input and output composite AV jacks.
Tech Talk
DivX is a compressed digital video format (like MP3) that's
based on the MPEG-4 video compression standard. It can reduce the video
from a DVD (MPEG-2) to around 10 percent of its original size while
still retaining good video and audio quality, enabling you to store
several two-hour length movies on burned DVD media.
Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input,
which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color
difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased
bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture
with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get
with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will
need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.
