Sanyo DP26648 Wide Screen Integrated Digital LCD HDTV

HDTV  (High Definition Digital TV)
720 horizontal lines of progressive scanning (720p) provide an exceptionally clean and detailed picture when the DTV is receiving a High Definition signal. Equipped with combined integrated analog (NTSC) and digital (ATSC) tuner to receive DTV off-air (terrestrial) signals and Clear QAM unscrambled digital cable channels.

Off-Air Digital Signals (terrestrial)
An increasing number of TV stations are broadcasting DTV versions of some of their regular programming at the same time as their NTSC broadcasts using different channels assigned to them by the FCC. This unit can receive and decode all 18 ATSC digital television formats. All broadcasters are scheduled to switch to DTV broadcasts by February 2009.

Almost all the digital channels can be received using a UHF antenna. Indoor antennas like rabbit ears or bowtie types should work if you are near the broadcast tower. But you will need a proper outdoor antenna if you are located 30-40 miles from the tower. Antenna height and an unobstructed line of sight affect signal reception. Buildings, steeples, towers, and other structures taller than four stories within four blocks of your location can mask or deflect signals.

Wide Screen 16:9 Aspect Ratio Flat Picture
The 16:9 ratio Wide-Screen gives the viewer a full picture of movies and broadcasts, rather than a normally cropped picture in the 4:3 ratio.The 16 by 9 format means that you can watch movies the way you would watch them in the theater while the true flat screen reduces reflections from room lights and windows for outstanding clarity and quality images from corner to corner.

HDMI ( High Definition Multimedia Interface) Audio /Video Input
Digital connection for uncompressed video plus multi-channel audio with HDCP copy protection. Superior to DVI because HDMI benefits include uncompressed video bandwidth of up to 5 gigabytes per second, one connector instead of several cables and connectors, and communication between the video source and Digital TV.

2-Sets Component Video Input (Y-Pb-Pr / R-L)
Three component video inputs take advantage of  DVD players and other devices with component video outputs. Video signal is divided into three separate elements; red (Pr), blue (Pb) and luminance or image brightness (Y) with dedicated Audio (R/L) jacks. Superior to both composite and S-video because it delivers a quality picture with greater resolution, better color accuracy, and less color bleeding..

3D Y/C Digital Comb Filter
Provides high resolution and picture sharpness while eliminating "dot crawl." Also offers sharper, clearer, more detail-perfect color picture reproduction.
