HDMI is fully backward compatible with PCs, displays and consumer electronics devices incorporating the Digital Visual Interface (DVI) standard. Both HDMI and DVI were pioneered by Silicon Image and are based on TMDS®, Silicon Image's powerful, high-speed, serial link technology.
BRAVIA Engine
The combination of the BRAVIA ENGINE and the unique high spec S-PVA panel, allows the BRAVIA LCD-TV to deliver rich, deep natural colour, like no other.
Live Colour Creation is Sony’s answer to bringing you realistic pictures with radiant colours and deep accurate tones. With the ability to capture true colours of the source, you’ll be amazed by the wide range of colours that’s presented for your viewing pleasure.
HD-Ready
Accepts high definition & DVD progressive signals, in addition to standard NTSC/PAL signals.
Enhance the excitement of watching sports and movies on your BRAVIA! Motionflow actually creates artificial pictures which it inserts into fast-moving sequences to effectively double the number of pictures, or frames, that make up the sequence. This enables BRAVIA to display even the fastest sports scene with total precision and smoothness.
Watch as your entire entertainment system comes alive with the push of a single button! With BRAVIA Theatre Sync, each entertainment device synchronises itself with the others so that a single command can bring every system online and playing your favourite programmes instantly.
24P True Cinema™
While conventional televisions (and most DVDs) operate at 50Hz, modern film-makers record their films onto Blu-Ray Disc™ using 24 frames per second (24Hz, or 24P). With 24P True Cinema, your BRAVIA will automatically recognise these films and select the correct format for playback so you see and hear the film just as in the theatre.
S-FORCE Front Surround
After years invested in developing totally virtual surround sound technology, Sony has created S-Force front surround. This amazing technology utilises a complex process of sound delay to bring a surrounding sound atmosphere to any space whatsoever from just two front speakers!
Watch two separate pictures from different sources on the screen at the same time!
The Wide Colour Gamut CCFL (Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamp) 2nd Generation improves the vibrancy and richness of reds, greens and blues and uses an additional phosphor coating for brighter backlighting. With an improved tri-colour enhancement, you receive richer reds, more natural greens and clearer and deeper blues for more detailed colours than ever before.
Theatre Mode
Collaborating with Sony Pictures Entertainment, Sony has created Theatre Mode, Sony’s authorised picture setting for films that accurately balances the colours of dark scenes and with the right amount of “film-grain”. You can now experience every movie exactly the way the director intended!
