What Is High Definition And How Is It Different From Standard Definition?

High Definition or "HD" is a technological leap forward from standard definition, with up to 6x the picture resolution, so that what you see is sharper and more realistic.  Regular TVs and the TV channels you watch at home are typically in standard definition (unless you watch HD channels).  DVD are also in standard definition.  Standard definition (480i & 480p) is lower quality than high definition.  Many older TV sets are standard def, and can only show standard def content (programming).  Many new TVs are called High Definition TVs (HDTV).  They are capable of showing high def content in: 720p, 1080i, and 1080p, all high definition formats, but 1080p provides the highest picture quality of them all.

 

 
HD Quality Pioneer's new BDP-LX70A Blu-ray Disc player is designed to deliver 1920 x 1080p output, the highest of the three high definition signals, providing consumers simple access to amazing audio, video and interactive content.
 
Hollywood studios are now releasing some of the latest movie titles on Blu-ray Disc and adding interactive features not possible with DVD because of its limited space capacity.  
 
Pioneer's BDP-LX70A offers backward compatibility with standard DVDs so consumers can maintain their existing DVD movie collection as they begin a new Blu-ray Disc collection.  
 
24 FPS Most movies are originally captured on film at 24 frames a second and transferred to Blu-ray discs at the same rate. The BDP-LX70A outputs this format without any artificial manipulation (eg 3-2 pull down) allowing you to see the movie exactly as the director planned.
 
HD Home Networking Pioneer's full-featured BDP-LX70A Blu-ray player takes home networking to another level with the Home Media Gallery enabling users to experience their PC based movies, music and photos via the BDP-LX70A and their screen.
 
Connecting via the Ethernet port, the DLNA technology (Digital Living Network Alliance) enables a link with the PC that allows for the sharing of content. Users will be able to access and easily transfer content currently stored on a Windows XP PC using Windows Media Connect.  
 
In addition to favourite photos, music and movies, users can download new content straight to their computer for immediate viewing on a television through the BDP-LX70A Blu-ray player. The unit's playsforsure™ compliance provides compatibility with all existing Windows Media Player 11 software.  
 
HD Connectivity For even easier set-up options, the unit features single wire connection through HDMI for the transfer of both video and audio in HD. HDMI output ensures the best quality picture and sound for both standard definition and Blu-ray Disc content.
 
The Pioneer BDP-LX70A Blu-ray Disc player is designed for easy operation with a visually rich high definition graphic user interface (GUI) for user-friendly navigation.  
 
“Combining Blu-ray technology with Pioneer's newest 1080p KURO plasma screens and 1080p AV receivers, we are ushering in a new dimension of high-definition home entertainment that creates an experience never before seen or heard in the home,” Anning said.  
 
Heritage of Optical Disc Expertise Pioneer has been an innovator of optical disc technology since it brought Laserdisc, the precursor to DVD, to market in 1980.
 
Pioneer went on to introduce the first DVD burner for computer use in 1997, the first DVD recorder as a VCR replacement in 1999, the first DVD burner priced for home computer users in 2001 and surpassed 5 million sales of DVD burners in 2003.
