    Part 3: Other Key Features of owning an RCA Scenium HDTV Part 1: DLP— brilliance, in color, design, and technology RCA Scenium brings you brilliant pictures with Digital Light Processing (DLP) system — a brilliantly choreographed, engineering marvel that combines microscopic mirrors, light, and color to bring you the best and brightest pictures possible.
  • Page 4 Introduction Part 2: Why RCA Scenium DLP is better DLP is just part of the story. You have chosen to embark on the next generation of TV viewing— HDTV. There are many technological advancements that make HDTV better than analog TV, but there are basically three things about HDTV that bring you a superior viewing experience: (1) resolution, (2) aspect ratio, and (3) digital signal and sound.
  • Page 5 Integrated HDTV Tuner with Digital Cable Ready QAM RCA was the first to offer an integrated tuner with its HDTVs (which means there is no need for another box to receive digital programming). Now, we’ve gone one better— your HDTV’s tuner is digital cable ready (no need for a cable box to view unscrambled digital cable programming).
