New Denon DVD Players to Feature HQV Video Processing Engine.


SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States
San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850.
, Calif. -- Denon has announced the introduction of two new DVD players that will feature HQV HQV Hollywood Quality Video (processor)  processing. The Denon DVD-3930CI (MSRP MSRP Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price

 $1499) features Realta HQV(R) processing, and the DVD-2930CI (MSRP $849) features Reon-VX HQV processing.

"In 2005 we launched our flagship DVD player, the 5910, featuring HQV processing, and it received rave reviews and won almost every single industry award, including Digital Entertainment Group's 'DVD Player of the Year,' and 'Product of the Year' from Audioholics.com and Electronic House magazine. With this incredible success, it only made sense for us to move HQV processing to the next level of our product line," said Jeff Talmadge, Denon's Director, Product Development and Systems Integration.

The Denon DVD-3930CI offers many of the same leading-edge characteristics as Denon's acclaimed flagship player, the DVD-5910CI, including Silicon Optix's Realta HQV video processor. Key to Realta's image-enhancing power is its ability to perform over one trillion video-processing operations per second. Realta features no-compromise deinterlacing, 3:2/2:2 and advanced cadence detection, motion-adaptive noise reduction, 1024-tap scaling, detail enhancement, and advanced keystone correction Keystone correction, colloquially also called keystoning, is a function that allows multimedia projectors that are not placed perpendicular to the horizontal centerline of the screen (too high or too low) to skew the output image, thereby making it rectangular. .

Denon's DVD-2930CI is the first DVD player to feature the new Silicon Optix Silicon Optix Inc (2001) is a privately held fabless semiconductor company that manufactures video/image digital processing integrated circuits. Originally a division of Genesis Microchip, Silicon Optix was spun off in 2001 by Paul Russo, the CEO of Genesis Microchip at the time.  Reon-VX HQV processing. Reon-VX features no-compromise deinterlacing, 3:2 and 2:2 cadence detection, motion adaptive noise reduction, powerful scaling, detail enhancement and advanced keystone correction.

"Both the Denon DVD-3930CI and DVD-2930CI do the best job in the industry of taking regular DVDs and having them approach high definition quality. While high-definition players have just been launched, the format war continues, and the first players have had their share of issues. These players offer a great alternative to the HD players, delivering close to HD quality for your existing library of DVDs," continued Denon's Talmadge.
