PAL playback on NTSC TV:

This is a special feature available on very few DVD players. Most other region free players will play back all region discs but if the disc is Pal you will not be able to play it on a normal American (NTSC) TV. This dvd player will play any disc on an NTSC (American) TV. Unlike many DVD players with a built in converter, this DVD player will not stretch Pal widescreen DVD movies when playing on an NTSC TV.

True hardware Progressive Scan:

The dvd player has true progressive scan which provides best picture quality into a HDTV. Also has 3/2 Pull Down. Also provides excellent picture quality on a regular non HDTV. Uses a high end hardware progressive scan chip. This DVD player may be set to output a progressive scan or interlaced video signal from component video output. Instead of splitting each video frame into two sequential fields like interlaced scan, progressive scan displays the entire frame in a single sweep. Where a standard DVD player's 480i output displays 30 frames (60 fields) per second, a progressive-scan player's 480p output displays 60 full frames per second. Progressive-scan picture quality is more film-like, with more fine detail and less flicker.

MP3 Player

Yes, for the music lovers. You can record hours of music on one disc and play it in this dvd player. Hundreds of songs can fit on cd-rom in the MP3 format. You can now hook this up to your music system and listen to hours of music all from one disc.
