DVD-2800MK2
Supports Ultra-High-Quality Progressive Scan Video with 12-bit, 108-MHz Video D/A Converter
The DVD-2800MK2 is endowed with a new PureProgressive
playback than the critically acclaimed PureProgressive
playback is also ensured by the DVD-2800MK2's high-accuracy 12-bit, 108-MHz video D/A converter, Super
Sub Alias Filter, Noise Shaped Video (NSV) and other features. High-quality sound with a superior dynamic
range, S/N ratio and stunning transparency has been made possible with the DVD-2800MK2's 24-bit, 96-kHz
audio D/A converter as well as a highly rigid vibration-resistant chassis, hybrid loader mechanism and other
technologies that preserve the extremely high quality sound from sources like DVD.
New PureProgressive Circuit

The DVD-2800MK2's interlace to progressive converter is the new
SiI504 Converter with PureProgressive
The SiI504 features faster moving picture detection and improved
film/video mode recognition capability.
High-speed processing: This Sil504 Progressive Converter is
capable of processing 6 billion operations per second, providing the
finest in motion-adaptive de-interlacing.
Moving picture detection: PureProgressive
detection, which converts 24-fps Film based material to 60-fps
TV/Video playback, while also detecting Video based material, animation
and graphics. PureProgressive is capable of reproducing DVD-Video
TM
discs containing both Film and Video material, as well as high picture
quality progressive video sources, while avoiding the flickering
caused by detection delays of these different formats. In processing
moving video signals, a conventional progressive converter performs
detection on a full frame-by-frame basis, while PureProgressive
stores 4 fields of video signals in a 64-Mbit SDRAM buffer, enabling
the detection and processing on a pixel-by-pixel basis to achieve
greater precision in discriminating between moving and still pictures.
Improved 2:3 pulldown detection: There are cases in which 2:3
pulldown data signals on DVD-Video discs are not in sync.
The PureProgressive TM converter will quickly detect the non-sequential
points and perform appropriate corrective measures at high speed to
minimize picture flickering.
It is now also possible to select Level Detection or Flag Detection
as the detection method used for Film and Video material. If an incorrect
flag was recorded or the difference between the video level and noise
level is very small and distinctions on the disc are difficult to detect,
this selection ensures optimum detection capability and minimizes
picture quality degradation.

TM technology of the DVD-2800. High-quality picture
Since a high-speed video D/A converter is indispensable to superior
circuitry from Silicon Image. quality digital video playback, the DVD-2800MK2 uses a 12-bit,
TM
108-MHz video D/A converter that ensures highly accurate playback
of delicate, low-level video signals to give you a vivid picture that is
faithful in every detail. A filter with flexible shutout characteristics that
is used for the analog filter in the latter stage further contributes to
high-quality picture reproduction. The DVD-2800MK2 also uses two
features 2:3 pulldown separate video D/A converters to process Progressive and Interlaced
TM
signals, effectively eliminating mutual interference between these two
types of signals.
When interlaced video is detected, DVD-2800MK2 uses the 27-MHz,
10-bit video D/A converter, so that with either video format, delicate
nuances are D/A converted with optimum accuracy.
TM
The NSV feature works in the digital domain to reduce noise in the video
signal frequency band in order to enhance video signal linearity.
The DVD-2800MK2 uses a Super Sub Alias Filter for the digital filter to
optimize picture quality. This filter achieves attenuation characteristics
of -3 dB in the ultra-high frequency band when the horizontal image is
6.25 MHz. Even at 8.25 MHz, the apparent outer limit of DVD-Video,
the attentuation characteristic secured is above -60 dB, ensuring an
ultra-high picture quality with superior horizontal line resolution.
The DVD-2800MK2 is equipped with 1 set of Component video
outputs for both Progressive signal (Y, Pb, Pr) and Interlaced signal
(Y, Cb, Cr) output. Wideband relay switching is employed when
switching between Progressive and Interlaced Output, for optimum
picture quality in either mode.
