DV-981HD scales standard definition DVDs up to 1080p HD-quality

OPPO Digital an award-winning consumer electronics manufacturer, announced the DV-981HD, its new flagship universal up-converting DVD player. The DV-981HD excels in translating standard definition video stored on DVD discs to high definition format suitable for display on HDTV and home theater projectors. Featuring an HDMI output and DCDi by Faroudja video processing technology, it delivers a breath-taking picture with vivid color, fine details, and life-like picture quality. The player also plays high-resolution audio formats such as DVD-Audio and Super Audio CD (SACD) for enveloping acoustics.

Designed for HDTV enthusiasts, the DV-981HD delivers exceptional core video performance as it improves picture quality with progressive scan, film mode detection, TrueLife enhancement and motion adaptive noise reduction. Available up-converted output resolutions include 480p/576p, 720p, 1080i and even true HD 1080p. The true HD 1080p output offers up to 6 times more details than a traditional progressive-scan DVD player. It is also compatible with discs and TVs in both NTSC and PAL formats.

Not only is the picture gorgeous, but the sound is equally impressive. The high bandwidth HDMI output enables transmitting multi-channel high resolution digital audio to a compatible A/V receiver or TV. Additional audio outputs include digital coaxial and optical, as well as gold-plated 5.1-channel and stereo analog outputs powered by a 24-bit/192kHz high resolution audio D/A converter. Its ability to truthfully reproduce sound from DVD-Audio, SACD, HDCD, music CD and Dolby Digital or DTS sound tracks makes the OPPO DV-981HD a true universal player.

“With the confusion over up-converting DVD players and compatibility with the various output connectors, consumers are looking for products such as the Oppo DV-981HD that combine superb up-conversion to HD with easy connectivity,” stated Colin Dixon, senior consultant for the Diffusion Group.
