* BRAVIA Engine Full Digital Video Processor
BRAVIA S-Series LCD televisions use Sony's BRAVIA Engine full digital
video processor for crisp and clear images. Several special picture
enhancement technologies are integrated into the processor to create
better gradations with more detail, enhance contrast, and dynamically
improve color performance. Digital Noise Reduction Circuits: Reduces
block noise and mosquito noise by using pixel-level filtering to
reproduce a clean and clear picture. And Motion Vector Noise Reduction
reduces just the noise in the video signal for video further reducing
unwanted noise and blur artifacts. Digital Contrast Enhancer circuit:
Improves contrast by enhancing all areas from dark to bright in parallel
with texture control providing a three dimensional picture. Color
Reality signal processing enables the expression of all the colors of
life in vivid detail for dark and bright scenes. Details in dark areas
of the picture are there, just like they are supposed to be.
* Live Color Creation (featuring WCG-CCFL)
Live Color Creation is a special Sony function that achieves precise,
wide color reproduction using a combination of advanced chroma signal
processing algorithms. A special wide color gamut backlight (WCG-CCFL)
is coupled with Sony's Live Color Creation circuitry. The benefit is
clear blues, natural greens and overall vibrant colors in all scenes.
* Xross Media Bar (XMB) On-Screen Menu System
Xross Media Bar is Sony's Emmy Award winning on-screen navigation that
provides quick access to various set up functions and features. For
instance selecting different types of media is made fun and easy by
scrolling horizontally across icons until you find the type of media you
are looking for. After selecting the media type, a list of its content
appears as vertical thumbnails. Key set up menus and features work the
same way. The main benefit of the XMB is that users can navigate through
on-screen menus without taking their eyes off of their TV.
* DMex Compatibility
DMex compatibility allows the connection and operation of a whole new
category of products that is being developed by Sony (sold separately).
The first of these products is the optional BRAVIA Internet Video Link
module.
* BRAVIA Theatre Sync-2
BRAVIA Theatre Sync reduces the hassle and time consuming job of
powering up, changing the signal routing, and adjusting other functions
to the simple push of one button. All you need to do is to connect
BRAVIA Theatre Sync capable products to each other via one HDMI cable.
The rest is easy. For instance, the One Push Play function activates by
touching the play button on the remote and BRAVIA Theatre Sync takes
over from there. The BRAVIA Home Theatre System and TV turn on. The DVD
input on the BRAVIA Theatre system and TV activates. The TV mutes. And
finally the DVD plays. There are two other BRAVIA Theatre Sync functions
- One-Push Theatre Settings, which provides optimal picture and sound
settings for movies and One-Push System Shut Down for turning off the
entire home entertainment system.
* BRAVIA Internet Video Link
The first DMex product to be introduced to the market is the DMX-NV1
BRAVIA Internet Video Link module (sold separately). The DMX-NV1 can
stream available Internet video from select content providers directly
to your TV with a broadband connection3 without the need for a PC.
* S-Force Front Surround
S-Force Front Surround is a virtual surround sound experience made
possible using just two front speakers in select BRAVIA models. To
accomplish this, Sony spent several years studying how our ears work. By
understanding exactly how we recognize the origin, direction, volume and
timing differences in sound right and left ear, Sony was able to create
complex audio processing that delivers dynamic virtual surround sound
without the need to bounce sound off walls and back to the listener.
* HDMI and PC Connectivity
Designed for maximum versatility, Sony's BRAVIA S-Series Digital LCD TV
line is equipped with a comprehensive range of input interfaces. The
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first industry-
supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI
technology supports enhanced or High Definition video, together with
multi-channel digital audio to provide matchless image and sound
reproduction. The HDMI and PC inputs (HD-15-pin) offer easy connection
to your PC, allowing you to use your high resolution BRAVIA S-Series
Digital TV as a computer monitor.
* Light Sensor-2
Intelligently adjusts the screen brightness to match the ambient light
in a room, ensuring a comfortable viewing experience. In a dim room for
example the screen automatically reduces brightness making it much more
comfortable for viewing.
* Freeze Function
Sony's Freeze Function is a useful function that allows you to
temporarily freeze the picture in a separate screen while the
programming continues to display. This comes in handy when you want to
copy a recipe, phone number, etc. that flashes too quickly across your
screen. Simply touch the "Freeze" button on the remote control and copy
the details down at your convenience.
