What is the difference in video quality from HDMI DVD player versus Progressive Scan Player?

I have an HDTV and looking for a new DVD player. How does the picture quality on a progressive scan DVD player compare with one of the new HDMI DVD players? Will the HDMI produce near-HD quality? Is it worth the extra $100-200 for the player and the special cable?

Progressive scan refers to the way the image is displayed. The image is non-interlaced providing a sharper image quality and is not directly related to HDMI, HDMI is the video connection.

HDMI is a high definition output provided by some DVD players, especially high end ones. HDMI is an all digital output again that preserves image quality. The competitor to HDMI is DVI which is similar in that, it too outputs an all digital signal.

There are two types of HDMI, type A is backwards compatible with DVI, type B HDMI is designed to support image resolutions higher than 1080p which is where most high definition TVs max out.

Basically what I'm saying is that progressive scan is how the image is displayed and HDMI is the output signal, the two combined together provide the best image quality.

Whether you use DVI or HDMI is of almost no consequence but you will want to pick one or the other (or whichever one is supported on your TV).

Let me try this again, any DVD player equipped with HDMI outputs will support progressive scan and the same goes for a player that has a DVI video connection.

Yes, it is worth the extra cables and player price.

project board and pcb?

i have a stepper motor with its deriving circuit
on the project power, the circuit does work with a single power supply (+5 1A), however the same circuit on PCB doesn't work with the same power supply, it needs 2 different supplies (+5 1A, and +5 500mA). where +5 1A supply used as motor supply, and +5 500mA used for the deriving circuit
i want to know why, and how to solve this problem

There is a good reason for the two supplies, even though the voltage is the same.

The stepper motor is driven with pulses that have a very high dv/dt (due to MOSFET switching, which is common for these circuits). So every time the motor driver activates, a sharp current spike is produced and the supply voltage undergoes a similar small negative voltage spike, large enough to confuse your driver logic.

In theory, you could power both from the same source, but practically you will find it VERY difficult to provide the clean voltage that your control circuit needs, while the power driver is causing the supply to vacillate.

The best way to do this with one supply is to have a power source with much more capacity (stiffer) than what is just sufficient for the combined loads, and then heavily filtered with high-frequency devices, that are carefully placed in the circuit to maintain a minimum of ESR.

It is usually cheaper to have two smaller supplies.

Sharp LC-52D62U 52-inch HD LCD TV

Introduction:

The Samsung LN40B550 is an extraordinary flat panel LCD-HDTV with a beautiful 40 inch widescreen display. The device offers 1080 pixilated vertical, progressive scanning, has Wiselink capabilities, and is a set that is connectivity intense. Whether for the office or for the home, this set is excellent when it comes to viewing angles, and it can be viewed easily when wall mounted or set up on an appropriate stand.

The LN40B550 is 26 inches high when it is used with its included swivel stand and 24 inches high when it is wall mounted. It has a 40 inch wide screen and it is 3 inches deep without its base. With the base the product weighs nearly 40 pounds: without it, the set weighs 32.8 pounds in all.

Display Properties:

• 1080 vertical resolution
• 1920 x 1080 pixel maximum resolution
• Aspect Ratio: 16 to 9
• Contrast ratio: 70k to 1, dynamic
• Widescreen Size: 40 inches

What Is Included?

The LN40B550 is sold along with an optional swivel base. Integrated into the housing of this superlative LCD-HDTV is Samsung's remarkable Touch of Color® design; the latter of which contrasts a deep rich, hint of red against the deep, shiny black of the housing along the bezel edge of the set's cabinet. The device comes complete with a user friendly manual too.

Product Capabilities:

The Samsung LN40B550's interior holds an embedded, sensitive HDTV tuner which is capable of detecting digital signals and interpreting them for viewing. This device is not offered in a cable ready version so a cable box or satellite system is required for such programming. The programming images are automatically enhanced by color enhancers, and the impressive contrast ratio makes sure that every image is sharp, crisp, and perfectly presented.

Viewing angles are diverse when one is using the LN40B550; when mounted on a wall, or when positioned on the base, this set already has a viewing angle of 178 degrees in four different directions. The swivel base increases the diversity of positioning as well. If the consumer wants to have this device wall mounted, the separate equipment for mounting will need to be purchased since the equipment is not sold with the HDTV.

This HDTV has splendid connectivity features; the LN40B550 has a total of four HDMI input devices, two component video inputs, and two composite inputs as well as one personal computer input. This HDTV does lack, however, any S-video inputs and DVI inputs. Dual speakers consisting of 10 watts are affixed into the cabinet of the Samsung LN40B550, and they offer surround sound effects.

The Samsung LN40B550 has a response time equivalent to 5 milliseconds, making it a second faster in terms of response time to the Samsung 32 inch and 37 models: this makes this set even better for high impact and action packed scenes. Consumers also get parental controls via the included V-chip inside the Samsung LN40B550, and this device is trilingual, has gaming modes, and an on screen navigate-able menu, as well as a sleep timer and alarm.

eBay does not have my model PC with the components I have in it, because I added a good deal myself.

With the increasing popularity of HDTV, watching a DVD movie at home is a great entertainment experience. The picture is sharp, clear, and vibrant. But what about the sound? After all, that is one of the real attractions of going to a movie theater, the wraparound sound that lets you hear every detail. So is there a way to bring that kind of audio into our homes too? Absolutely!

Actually surround sound has been around for a while now in one form or another, but it just never had a platform to bring it into the mainstream before HDTV and digital media like the DVD became so prevalent. But now by combining the right equipment, a person can actually very closely simulate the movie theater experience right in the comfort of their home whenever they want.

For surround sound, you will need three things, (1) a digital source that has surround sound already encoded into it such as a DVD or a HDTV broadcast, (2) equipment to decode that surround sound signal, and (3) at least 6 speakers including a subwoofer to take full advantage of the most popular 5.1 surround sound format. It's called 5.1 because it use 5 channels of sound to drive 5 separate speakers, and the .1 stands for the low-frequency subwoofer.

Once you have the equipment you need to establish a surround sound setup that will be right for your home. Much of the seating area will be determined by the size and type of TV that you have. If it is a 40" HDTV, which is a very common size, you can probably sit about 5-8 feet away and not notice any degradation in the picture quality. Just experiment with the seating distance until it seems comfortable though. Then the two front speakers usually flank the TV, but make sure that they are wide enough to form a triangle with the seating area so everyone will be in the sound sweet spot.

The two back speakers are often placed somewhere around the seating area and faced either to a side or rear wall. The middle speaker needs to be situated somewhere close to the TV, and the subwoofer can be put anywhere in the room that you like, since it puts out such low frequency bass that seems to come from everywhere.

Every room has different listening characteristics though due to it's configuration and furnishings, so feel free to experiment around until you find the combination that works best for you. A surround sound installation may seem challenging, but it's just simply getting the right equipment and placing the speakers where they produce the best overall sound.

I am sure that at one time or another you have gone to the movies to watch a great movie. By the time that you are midway through the picture you begin to think that it would have been great if you could have watched this moving picture in the solace of your own home. Well now this choice is open to you. All that you actually need to make this dream a realism is to select the best home theater systems that you can.

At this point you are likely thinking that your home theatre will cost more than a yearÂ’s worth of flick trips. Well if you go about selecting the best home theater systems based on money entirely then yes you will find that your home theater is going away to be expensive.

Now what you truly need to get the best home theater systems experience in your homes are a few simple items. You will need a TV that can let you see a motion picture in a big way. Speakers that will give you excellent caliber sound. A high quality Videodisk player and a way of experiencing the sound and exhilaration of surround sound.

So letÂ’s start at the root of your home theatre needs. As I said you will need a television system with a screen that is large enough to see the whole picture. Now you might be cerebration that you need a movie theatre size Television system screen to get that best home theater systems look and feel. This is not inevitably true, up to now if you have such a Television screen then you just need to fine tune your TV so that you can get sharp and clear pictures.

On the other hand if you need a slightly large sized Television system then look for one that is about Twenty-seven inches or bigger so that you can bask seeing all of the action. Buy this Television based upon the budget that you have. Find out if this new television receiver set will be able to play assorted moving-picture show formats and if there is a home projector system that is included with the TV.

Sometimes you will find that there are TV sets that have some of the best home theater systems that you can buy. Not only do these TVs show larger clear pictures, but you get excellent caliber surround sound and you can play your Videodisk movies as if you were at the cinemas.

The only other items that you will need to complete your chore of having the best home theater systems in the vicinity is that of speakers. These speakers must be able to play different formats of sound and carry through high quality Dolby Digital surround sound.

Now imagine that you are in your home with one of the best home theater systems that you can find. You are feeding hot buttered popcorn just like in the cinemas when suddenly you find yourself deep in enemy territory all courtesy of your home theatre system.

I recently purchased a Sharp aquos 42d62u LCD TV and get bad motion blurr on HD sports channels. Any solution

Watching one of the bowl games last night on FOX and it was particularly bad - eventually just tough to watch. Any suggestions??

I own the 64u that has a 4ms response time and have never had any motion blur or ghosting. With your 62u at 6ms you shouldn't be getting any either. I would agree with the others and say it is probably the signal you are receiving. Try another source and see if you have the same issues.

I recommend getting the DVD player separately. A lot of times the DVD player will break before the TV, meaning that you're stuck with repairing it.

Since you can get a DVD player for cheap and just replace it, why be stuck with one inside your TV?

You can get a nice 26" for under $500. Look for one with a PC input, like LG...that way you can hook up your PC when it's time to do some work (yeah right) and you'll have a great PC monitor!

Once you have chosen a TV, check out this site to see if you are getting the best deal. They will do the work for you and find the best prices, including coupon codes, from reputable retailers.

LCD HDTV has become a trend in the home entertainment industry because of its sleek and thin design. It has gained recognition because of its innovative features and impressive picture quality. HDTV manufacturers continue to progress and modify the good features and make it even better. However, regardless of the development, the consumers are given an option to purchase a good LCD HDTV at a very reasonable price, which suits their lifestyle and needs. Here are some pointers to consider in choosing an LCD TV.

When you shop for a television, first thing that you would probably ask is the resolution. Nowadays, 1080p resolution is the best for consumer home theater. Some companies promote a 1080i LCD HDTV that has an actual widescreen resolution of 1,366 by 768 pixels, which greatly differs from the 1080p. 1080p resolution has 1,920 by 1,080 pixels.

Sometimes specifications that are worthless like contrast ratio and pixel response time. These specifications are problematic because there are many variations and each is calculated in notably different ways. Sales people tend to focus on whatever specification calculation offers the most impressive looking result.

Regarding pixel response time, what you need to know is if a particular LCD TV is optimized to reduce the smearing of an image when showing a fast motion video. Currently, the 120-Hz display technology is the feature that best addresses this problem. It is a premium LCD feature but its advantages are instantaneously recognizable.

Contrast ratio is the ratio of measured light output when displaying white to its measured light output when displaying video black, also called the black level. There are several types of contrast ratio calculations. These are sequential, intra-frame, and dynamic. But these calculation results are often useless when comparing one LCD HDTV to another. It is better to focus on which model makes the deepest and darkest representation of video black because the LCD TV that has a darker black level has the more detailed, enhanced saturation, and more appealing image.

An LCD HDTV screen can produce more than twice the light output of a Plasma TV. The extra brightness that an LCD HDTV can provide helps in maintaining picture detail by improving the dynamic range of the image in a well-lit environment. To minimize distracting light reflections, a lot of LCD HDTVs have a matte finish. However, there are some new LCD HDTVs that are incorporating glossy top filters that enhance apparent contrast and color saturation by making video black appear pitch-black dark. Glossy LCD screens make a slightly crispier picture than a matte finished outside filter can produce.

An LCD TV produces a picture by channeling the output of a very bright backlighting system through a series of optical filters. The capacity to control an LCD TV's backlight can help minimize eyestrain in a dark viewing environment. In addition, the brightness level of an LCD HDTV's backlight correlates to its power consumption. Lower backlight output to dark-room viewing levels can result in one-half to two-third less power consumed. Also, lower backlighting extends the lifespan of the lamp module.

Lastly, you should consider video port needs, particularly HDMI. High-Definition Multimedia Interface is the standard for digital video transfer in home-theater. The main benefits are the clarity of a digital signal and the audio and video that are streamed over a single cable connection. Common appliances that can be connected to an LCD HDTV through HDMI are DVD players and game consoles. Most LCD HDTV provides two to four ports.

Look for these different features when you are purchasing an LCD HDTV. This technical knowledge will help you decide which LCD HDTV meets your needs.

When you walk into the home theatre system area of your local consumer electronics outlet, the multitude of choices are daunting. Everything is gleaming under the fluorescent lights, very new and very shiny, each system seemingly saying "buy me, buy me". Before you get to that point, there are many things you need to understand and realize to help you make the best possible decision for your home and your wallet.

First you need to determine which room of your home will house this home theatre system. Note that if you are going for the very large screen like 50 or 60 inches or more, the best viewing is from about 10 to 12 feet away. So putting a screen of this size into a small room is going to disappoint you because the screen will not look sharp or crisp. On the other hand, if you go with a smaller screen like a 36 or 42 inch screen, this would be adequate for a small family room or even a larger bedroom.

You need to decide on what type of display you want. LCD and plasma displays will provide the clearest and sharpest images. DLP and rear projection systems can cost less, but a major disadvantage in these systems is the viewing angle -- DLP and rear projection do not provide as clear a picture when viewing the screen from an angle. Again, examine your target room where your system will be located, and determine the typical viewing angle for the viewers which should help you decide the best display technology to use.

Another important component is the receiver. Some receivers for home theatre systems have inputs for your cable TV or satellite dish connection, as well as inputs for a variety of other things, such as your DVD player, your VCR, your surround sound system, and perhaps even a PC input. Some even have a built-in radio, although these are becoming less common. One of the newer additions to receivers is the ability to play XM radio, although XM radio will require a monthly subscription. So with all these choices, you need to evaluate what is important to you, as well as what you will actually USE. There is little sense, for example, in equipping the receiver with XM radio if you will never or rarely use that option.

No home theatre system is complete without a good speaker system. Ideally, the surround sound should be Dolby 7.1 or at least Dolby 5.1. If you are going to spend the money on a great home theatre system, it makes little sense to "cheap out" with the speakers and audio system, since after the picture, the SOUND is the other component that lights up your internal sensory perceptors as you are enjoying your system. You can even go the extra mile with your surround sound system if you want to go whole hog, and use the "bass shaker" attachments that are available with some systems. These gadgets attach to your recliner or sofa, and when a scene comes on with an explosion or car wreck, these gadgets actually SHAKE the recliner or sofa, adding to the realism of the movie.

I suggest you make yourself a list, or maybe even a paper spreadsheet that you take with you when you shop around. Put a column for must-have features, a column for nice-to-have features, and perhaps yet another column for a feature you find that is specific to a particular brand. And definitely SHOP AROUND for your home theatre system! Create a budget for yourself that will NOT be exceeded, regardless of how loudly a particular system is screaming at you to buy it. Watch for systems to go on sale, which they do on a frequent basis, and you can save yourself a wad of cash. If you are buying the components separately, my recommendation would be to buy them all from the same store. That way if there is a problem, you will not have the issue of "finger pointing" from the various stores trying to blame each other.

The smart shopper is the one who gets the quality system and doesn't pay "sticker price" for it. Be informed, know what you want, be willing to learn if you run across an intelligent salesperson who knows what he is talking about, and stick to your budget. You will be able to enjoy your investment in this superb home theatre system for years to come.

The “powers” of colloidal silver have been heralded for thousands of years only to be quieted by penicillin and other bacteria killers conjured up in the pharmaceutical labs, given Latin names and used to fight every bacterium originated disease known to man.

The results of shunning this natural “nano-sized” (nano = one billionth of a meter) antibiotic has been that diseases have evolved to have a resistance to the man made antibiotics and now scientist are scrambling to find replacements for the antibiotics that have survived less than 100 years.

There are critics that hypothesize that the large pharmaceutical companies are pressuring the regulatory agencies to prevent nano-sized silver products from being sold directly to the public without the giants taking their cut. Websites have sold silver nanoparticles in solution known as colloidal silver without the ability to mention what the product will cure or testimonials from those that have had positive results.

Wall Street Journal announces that the “War Against Germs Has Silver Lining”.

Curad USA, makers of hospital bandages lined with nano-silver particles now has released Curad Silver Bandages for the home use instead of a Band-aid. Curad claims “that silver reduced bacterial growth like Staph. aureaus, E. coli, E. hirae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa”.

Samsung Electronics has introduced a refrigerator and new laundry washing machine that uses silver ions to sanitize the laundry and eliminate 99% of odor causing bacteria (sold at LoweÂ’s and Best Buy). Plank, a Boston company, has launched a new soap for Yoga users that lists silver as the main active ingredient. The company has a toothpaste and shampoo in R&D that is imbued with silver.

Asia has become the largest consumer of products that uses the nano-silver as a antimicrobial ingredient. Colloidal silver is known to kill virus, is it possible they are guarding against bird flu?

While some agencies strive to prevent you from buying colloidal silver online, the EPA is clear that we NOW have silver in our drinking supply and has, for health purposes established a daily reference dose for silver in drinking water at 350 micrograms (u.g) and a critical dose at 1400 u.g. In contrast, international health bodies, such as the World Health Organization, have not established such standards for silver since its toxicity is very low.

Silver “becomes more active against microbes when it’s made into small particles because they can cover more surface area when they come into direct contact with bacteria,” according to Andrew Maynard, physicist and chief scientific adviser for studies on Emerging Nanotechnologies underway at Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington.

Adidas, and Polartec have licensed silver coated nylon fabric known as X-Static (Noble Biomaterials Inc.) to incorporate antimicrobial silver in athletic and outdoor clothing for their ability to kill odors and promote thermal properties. Brooks Sports sells a line (HVAC) of socks, caps and shirts that use silver to differentiate them from all others.

ARC Outdoors uses silver infused fabric from NanHorizon Inc. to produce antimicrobial socks for the U.S. military. SmartSilver is brand of odor-eliminating underwear, stocking caps and gloves that kills bacteria on contact using nano-silver. ARC sells to Wal-Mart, Bass ProShops, CabelaÂ’s and wants to expand to hospital products such as sheets and surgical scrubs.

Sharper Image has introduced a plastic food storage container that is infused with nano-silver particles that they claim will keep food fresher, longer.

So what diseases will colloidal silver display benefits for? Bacteria and virus are known to be killed by silver suspended in a liquid of nanoparticle size called colloidal silver. In addition to the bacterial growths like Staph. aureaus, E. coli, E. hirae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa mentioned by Curad and Maynard, yeast, fungus and virus have all died in tests using colloidal silver. So is yeast infection a yeast? Yes. Is ringworm a fungus? Yes. Is acne caused by bacteria? Yes. Is sinusitis caused by a bacteria infection? Yes. Is silver used in infants eyes? Yes. Is silver used for burn victims? Yes. Is colloidal silver an immune system support? Yes. Will colloidal silver be the answer for bird flu? Is bird flu a virus?

Viva Colloidal Silver!

Could someone explain to me how to get xbox live? 10 points best answer!?

Hiya,
So, my brothers have xbox live gold account. I don't want gold but I want silver (the free one). I have had my account on xbox for awhile and I think I am ready to connect with friends and well, the main reason being xbox live on viva pinata . So, my internet connection thing is all set up, I just wanted how to do it and any tips . Thanks!

The silver membership doesn't allow you to play online - you have to buy the gold one to do so. you can buy monthly, 3-month or yearly. Monthly -you pay too much especially if you're going to keep buying them. the best is yearly . it equals ourt to about 5 -5.50 a month instead of the 7-8.50 (depending where you live) a month for just the monthly card. to buy gold you can buy the cards for different retailers or you can add your credit card - and buy directly from your xbox.

i don't think the siler membership allows you to do much - that's why they give it to you free!

There are three types of projector technologies available on the market. DLP (Digital Light Processing) and LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) are the most widely available technologies, whilst LCoS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) is a more recent technology that is becoming more popular.

DLP and LCD have few differences. DLP projectors are subject to the ‘rainbow effect’. This is due to the colour wheel they use to generate an image. This effect means that a very small amount of people will see flashes of solid colour. Faster colour wheels have reduced this substantially. DLP projectors can be a little awkward about where they are placed relative to the screen. LCD projectors are easier to place but also come with their own difficulties. LCD can suffer from ‘screen door effect’, the images sometimes look as though you are looking through a mesh panel. Experts tend to prefer DLP projectors as the black levels and contrast give a better cinematic picture but LCD projectors have a small price advantage.

The other type of Office Projector is LCoS. This is a newer technology than either DLP or LCD and is becoming increasingly popular. The LCoS technology has neither ‘rainbow effect’ nor ‘screen door effect’ and gives outstanding picture quality. However, it does tend to be more expensive than either DLP or LCD.

Another thing to look at is the resolution of the digital projector. SVGA (800p x 600p) and XGA (1024p x 768p) are the most popular. The XGA gives better, sharper text and graphics. SVGA is still available and cheaper than XGA and would give perfectly adequate pictures for the usual PowerPoint presentation. With the increase in wide screen laptops, the resolutions that fit them have changed. WVGA resolution (854p x 480p) matches that of DVD movies. There are other resolutions of similar size that come under the umbrella of WVGA. Many widescreen business projectors have WXGA resolution that matches many 14-15inch laptops. SXGA+ matches the larger computer screens and laptops over 17 inches.

Brightness is measured in lumens and basically, the larger the room the more lumens are required. Contrast ratio for most graphics and text is fine at 400:1 but for movies needs to be more than 1000:1.

Lamps can be quite expensive and they do need to be replaced periodically. Not surprisingly the lamps are rarely covered under the warranty for more than 90 days.

Portability of your Office Projector is something to be considered. Projectors generally weigh about 2-3 pounds but can go up to around 10 pounds.

If I am on a budget, is a 480p home theater projector acceptable for now? and upgrade in a few years?

I am looking to get a home theater projector, but I don't want to spend more than 600. Preferably 5.

I think you are saving $200-$300 in the short term and spending $600-$800 more in the long term (by essentially buying two systems in a relatively short period of time.)

If you have credit, most major retailers offer 1-3 years interest free financing. While I do not normally recommend people finance a purchase like this in your situation it seems like a better solution than to buy two systems and spend more money in the long run.

---------------

That being said - in terms of quality on the 480 (the heart of your question)... by using regular DVD's you won't gain much (if anything) by having a higher resolution system. Only very high end DVD players will really translate the standard DVD up to your HD in a noticeable way, and even then there is very little they can do anyway.

If you do not plan to get an Xbox360 or PS3 there is not a huge advantage quality wise on going to the higher resolution. If, however, you are going to be watching HDTV and sports, then you really should get at least a 720 now and not waste time or money on the 480.
