Chapter 1 Introduction
With the conventional TV Box, you could only use your PC monitor to watch the TV program at a very low
resolution without any extra functions.
Thing’s nicely changed! With the new generation of TV Box, WinFast TV Pro II, you could use your
CRT, LCD, plasma or even projection monitor to watch the full-screen TV program, up to a sky-high
resolution of 1280*1024 in 24-bit color. Moreover, check below what extra functions you could enjoy
with WinFast TV Pro II.
1.1 Features
1. It supports extra high HDTV resolution, up to 1280 x 1024 pixels. Connecting 17” or 19” LCD Monitor, it
will achieve the best display effect.
2. It supports genuine 16:9 wide screen without any distortion.
3 .With a motion adaptive de-interlacing unit, it easily converts the conventional TV signals, which come
interlaced (scanned every other lines), into progressive ones (scanned every line). You’ll find that the
line flickering is reduced a lot. Our de-interlacing process, basically inserting new lines between the
two input lines, detects motion based on user programmable thresholds. It turns out that the zigzag
problem is greatly reduced.
4. It adopts a variety of new technologies including gamma correction, non-linear scaling, luminance/color
transient improvement, and sharpness enhancement.
It is true for the fact that you’ll happily enjoy the sharp, clear, saturated 3D video.
5. The top-class TV tuner is adopted to show the best picture quality.
6. With the multiple Audio/Video inputs, it can connect your A/V devices such as DVD player, VCR or DV
camcorder, and Game Consoles such as PS2 or XBOX.
7. It offers the Sleep Timer.
8. Remote Control is included.
9. The function of Favorite Channel enables you to switch between your favorite channels.
10. It supports OSD and Menu setting.
