WHAT’S THE
DVD-HD931?

The best deserve to use the best. Samsung is
proud to present the DVD-HD931 with the best
performance
ever. This prestigious unit is only for those who pursue the
ultimate in digital
performance.

HDTV Compliant

Samsung DVD-HD931 is extensively different
from other DVD players you have experienced. It is a high tech
product having a perfect HDTV compliance that has been limited
with other normal DVD players.
DVD-HD931 is a new concept
product which is compliant with HDTV formats. Even a normal
DVD title it displays a video source with the resolution on
the level of HDTV by adopting a Scale-up technology that was
developed by Faroudja Lab. in Genesis
Inc.

High Quality Picture

Realization of Perfect Picture by
Faroudja Lab. Technology (DCDi™)
: By adopting the
Genesis’s FLI2310 chip where Faroudja technology was
materialized, it perfectly corrects vibration, stairs,
cut-off, and other standard operational errors that may occur
in a picture.

Adoption of the DNIe chip developed
with Samsung’s own distinctive technology.
: By adopting
DNIe (Digital Natural Image Engine), DVD-HD931 displays a
clean Picture. This is done by reproducing a digital source
which passes through an FLI2310 chip as it is without any loss
of picture quality.

Adoption of DVI Video Output
: No
reduction of picture quality or distortion can occur when
adopting DVI that supports Digital Image
Perfection.

Superior Sound

HDCD & DVD-Audio Playback
Capability
: Unlike a normal DVD player playing only an
ordinary CD, Samsung DVD-HD931 enables you to hear HDCD &
DVD-Audio formats of significantly improved
quality.

Dolby/DTS Digital Output
: It
streams out Dolby Digital and DTS 5.1 Channel streams and
enables you to hear the same degree of the original sound that
would be heard at a movie theater.

Deluxe Design

Adopting of Slim Design (55mm)
:
With high-class, simple and slim design that is 55mm in
height, it is exquisitely designed to blend with any interior
decoration.

Half Mirror Design
: With a
mixture of simple silver and half mirror colors, it crafts the
complete image of perfection.

HOW DOES THE
DVD-HD931 WORK?

Samsung DVD-HD931 operates based on digital
processing. In order to display a high-quality picture, it
performs video processing, including Video Format Conversion
using FLI2310 chip by Faroudja Lab. technology, Samsung’s DNIe
Chip, and DVI technology that supports Digital Image
Perfection.

Video Format Converter

A normal DVD player transmits a video signal
to 480i output when playing a DVD Title (480i/480p). Even with
a progressive scanning DVD player, it simply outputs a video
signal of 480i-to-480p. However, Samsung DVDHD931 enables you
to enjoy an HDTV compliant picture with an ordinary DVD Title,
thanks to its scale-up to 720p/1080i.

Video Enhancement

Samsung DVD-HD931 exhibits a remarkable
enhancement in picture quality by adopting DNIe (Digital
Natural Image Engine) chip, Samsung’s unique digital
processing chip.

DNIe Chip
: It is located between
the FLI2310 chip and DVI circuitry. It receives the digital
video output signal processed by FLI2310, corrects for picture
quality, and then outputs a digital video to
DVI.

DVI (Digital Visual Interface)
Adoption

DVI is an interface to enable the digital
transmission of video signals between various digital devices.
Using a DVI, Samsung DVD-HD931 transmits a digital video
signal and displays a vivid picture on a digital type TV
having a DVI.

Digital Image Perfection
:
Generally, with an analog type display device an analog video
signal should be input to the VIDEO IN.
However, when
playing a DVD title, the data transmitted to a display device
is digital. Therefore, either a digital-to-analog converter
(DAC) or an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is required.
During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to
a loss of signal and noise. In order to resolve this
disadvantage, DVD-HD931 has utilized DVI technology which
enables the digital signal to a digital display device without
any converting process.

FAROUDJA LAB.
TECHNOLOGY PROCESSING

Overview

Since the original source of a DVD title is
usually a movie made from film reels, it produces 24 frames
per second and requires a conversion to a 60-field video
signal of 30 frames (NTSC) per second when viewing a DVD title
on TV. In order to compensate 6 frames, the following 3:2
pulldown process is required.

Motion Adaptive
De-interlacing

Motion Adaptive Technologies produce the
finest progressive output available. They detect the amount of
motion and use an appropriate mix of spatial and temporal
processing with the highest resolution for still areas that
have no motion artifacts in moving
areas.

DCDi™ (Directional Correlational
De-interlacing)

Samsung DVD-HD931 performs directional
interpolation on each pixel with DCDi™ technology, which
detects the angle of an outer tilt by pixel, and then
de-interlaces a video signal according to the angle. By this
cutting-edge process, it reproduces a soft and natural picture
without any coarse outline.

Directional Correlation
De-interlacing, known as DCDi™ is state-of-the-art video
processing technology incorporated for even higher picture
quality assurance.

DCDi™ eliminates the jagged edges
that appear when standard interlaced video is viewed on
progressive-scan displays. This means progressive-scan DVD
players that feature DCDi™ technology produce images that look
more smooth and natural.

DVI (Digital Visual
Interface) VIDEO OUTPUT

Digital Image Perfection with
DVI

Samsung DVD-HD931 displays a remarkable
picture by adopting DVI, a graphic interface standard recently
coming into focus. Current most analog interfaces are not
appropriate for future Digital Display devices. Therefore the
DDWG (Digital Display Working Group), including many PC &
electric appliances related companies handling DFP (Digital
Flat Panel), established DVI as a standard interface
appropriate for future Digital Display
devices.
