Description:

Enjoy movies and music to the max with Toshiba's SD-2815 five-disc DVD player. ColorStream component-video outputs (for use with compatible TVs) virtually eliminate NTSC artifacts like video noise and dot crawl, while built-in MP3 and WMA (Windows Media Audio) decoding gives the freedom to compile music on a PC and listen to it on your stereo or TV.

Component-video splits the video signal into three separate components, which reduces the amount of signal processing required of a television. Conventional composite- and S-video outputs bring compatibility with nearly any television. The "expanded" mode in the player's black-level setting produces richer, deeper black tones in every image. Using parallel video output you can connect each of the player's outputs to a different TV and watch simultaneous images from each connected set, making it ideal for multi-room use.

The player offers full menu navigation via the front-panel controls so you can operate the player even when the remote has been misplaced or is unavailable. The SD-2815 also lets you place up to nine digital "bookmarks" to save favorite locations or scenes on the currently loaded discs. The bookmarks provide quick access to scenes you want to watch again or show to friends.

In the audio realm, two sets of left/right analog-audio outputs channel audio to Dolby Pro Logic receivers and stereo televisions. Both Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1-channel surround-sound signals can be routed through the player's coaxial digital-audio output for direct connection to a full-featured audio/video receiver. The player's internal digital-to-analog converters work at 24-bit, 96 kHz resolution to ensure high quality reproduction from a range of program material. Playback options include picture zoom, dialogue enhancement, 3-D Virtual Surround Sound (simulated surround for two-channel listening), and parental lock.
