Save space and enjoy a wonderfully vivid picture with the stylish, 42-inch Philips 42PF9631D/10 widescreen LCD TV. It has a built-in analogue tuner for standard television broadcasts in addition to an integrated Digital Tuner for DVB-T reception. It features Philips' Pixel Plus for better detail, depth and clarity, which combines a whole range of enhancements to provide a better picture, including a dynamic contrast, blue stretch and green enhancement for the most natural looking colours. This set includes a tabletop stand, but it's also wall-mountable with optional kit (VESA compatible).
The 42PF9631D/10 has a 1024 x 1080i-pixel resolution, 176-degree viewing angle, a 1400 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating. Other features include progressive scan, 3D comb filter, Digital Natural Motion, Jagged line suppression, Widescreen plus, Pulse Killer Chip, Dynamic contrast enhancement, Active Control, Clear LCD, Pixel Plus 2 HD, 3/2 - 2/2 motion pull down and an anti-reflection coated screen
The 3D comb filter separates brightness and colour signals better in 3D domain to eliminate cross-colour, cross-luminance and dot-crawl distortion. It performs field-by-field comparisons of the television image to accurately separate the colour from the black-and-white information and remove both horizontally and vertically hanging dots, as well as dot crawl, resulting in a razor sharp image. This set also performs 3:2 pulldown detection and reversal, too--a handy feature for watching progressive-scan movie programs in their native 24-frame format. To adapt 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video, frames in the original movie must be duplicated; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this duplication by removing the redundant information to display a frame-accurate picture.
This TV has four built-in powerful stereo speakers that produce 15 watts per channel (for 30 watts of total power). Philips' Incredible Surround audio technology dramatically magnifies the sound field to immerse you in the audio. Using state-of-the-art electronic phase shifting, Incredible Surround mixes sounds from left and right in such a way that it expands the virtual distance between the four speakers. This wider spread greatly enhances the stereo effect and creates a more natural sound dimension--without the use of additional speakers.
It also includes the following connections: Ext 1 SCART: Audio L/R, CVBS in/out, RGBExt 2 SCART: Audio L/R, CVBS in/out, S video in, RGB outExt 3 : YPbPrExt 4 : HDMIExt 5 : HDMI Other connections : Analogue audio left / right out, S/PDIF in (coaxial), S/PDIF out (coaxial), Common Interface, PC in VGA & audio L/R inFront / Side connections : Audio L/R in, CVBS in, Headphone out, S-Video in, USB, Number of SCARTS: 2
HDMI makes an uncompressed digital RGB connection from the source to the screen. By eliminating conversion to an analogue signal, it delivers an unblemished image. The non-degraded signal reduces flicker and leads to a clearer picture. HDMI intelligently communicates the highest output resolution with the source device. The HDMI input is fully backward compatible with DVI sources but includes digital audio. HDMI uses HDCP copy protection.
