All SDTV formats are interlaced, and SDTV pictures are not as sharp as progressive scan EDTV or HDTV (Enhanced Definition or High Definition). SDTV Vs. digital video. HD Leeza produces pristine digital images with picture adjustments for brightness/contrast, color, position/size, standard/custom aspect ratios, and more - so video gurus can tweak to their preferences. HD Leeza uses Key Digital's proprietary "Clear Matrix Pro" advanced motion-assisted scaling/deinterlacing algorithm with film-mode. It scales to standard and custom aspect ratios, and "Dynamic Non Linear Stretch" is also provided for custom aspect ratio control. HD Leeza scales to ALL popular native resolutions, so users can find the "sweet spot" for their display to perform at its finest. Ideal for high-end home HDTV (High Definition TV) A set of digital television (DTV) standards that offer the highest resolution and sharpest picture. Although some HDTV sets are available in standard (rather square) screen sizes, the overwhelming majority of sets are wide screen, which eliminates installations, HD Leeza is also chosen by Fortune 500-grade companies to bring out the best in HDTV and SDTV retail store displays (like plasma, D-ILA See LCoS. , DLP(R), LCD, LCoS, and CRT projectors). HD Leeza has a user-friendly on-screen display with IR remote. An RS232 port (with discreet command protocol) allows control by systems like Crestron and convenient Internet firmware upgrades.
