Advanced video processing featuring
"VRS™ by Anchor Bay" technologies
With the DV-983H, OPPO has incorporatedAnchor Bay’s latest VRS
(Video Reference Series™) technology. An ABT102 chipset
provides AutoCUE-C™, Progressive Cadence Detection™, and
Precision De-interlacing™. An ABT1018 chip handles Precision
Video Scaling™, frame rate conversion, aspect ratio control and
video zooming. These technologies combine to generate a clearer,
smoother, and true-to-life picture free of artifacts.
High definition up-conversion up to 1080p
“Full HD” resolution
The new generation of full HD 1080p televisions have up to 6 times
more pixels than what is encoded in traditional DVD discs. The
1080p output from the DV-983H is a pixel-perfect match for 1080p
TVs.
HDMI output with exceptional core video
performance and high resolution audio
support
HDMI is an all digital interface for the cleanest possible connection.
It delivers high-quality digital video and audio through a single cable.
The HDMI audio output supports bit-stream and uncompressed
multi-channel high-resolution audio, greatly simplifying connectivity
for users with modern A/V receivers.
DVD-Audio, Super Audio CD (SACD) and
DVD-Video universal playback
The OPPO DV-983H plays back standard DVD as well as DVD-
Audio and SACD high resolution audio discs. It is a universal device
for all of your favored home entertainment contents (note: Blu-Ray
and HD-DVD are not supported.)
7.1 Channel audio with Dolby Digital
Surround EX decoding
Movie soundtracks that have been encoded with Dolby Digital
Surround EX technology are able to reproduce an extra channel
which has been added during the mixing of the program. This
channel, called Surround Back, places sounds behind the listener in
addition to the currently available front left, front center, front right,
surround right, surround left and subwoofer channels. The additional
channel provides the opportunity for more detailed imaging behind
the listener and brings more depth, spacious ambience and sound
localization then ever before.
Optimized high-fidelity audio circuitry
Taking inputs from audiovisual enthusiasts and world-famous high-
fidelity audio equipment partners, OPPO designed the DV-983H with
a focus on the precision rendering of Super Audio CD, DVD-Audio,
HDCD and regular CDs. Its digital-to-analog (D/A) converters
feature 192kHz high sampling rate and 24-bit resolution. The driving
stage uses carefully selected op-amps and capacitors. Each section
of the audio circuitry is powered by its own isolated power regulator,
and the main power supply unit is electro-magnetically shielded.
Combining these premium components in an optimized design, the
DV-983H reduces quantization distortion and accurately reproduces
the analog waveform, resulting in a faithful, natural, detailed and rich
sound.
High resolution picture slide show
The high resolution picture slide show fully utilizes the increased
resolution of your HDTV to display digital pictures. Now you can
enjoy your digital photos without a loss in quality or details.
USB 2.0 interface for video, picture and music
playback
The DV-983H comes with a USB 2.0 interface to connect with
external USB devices. The multi-format video, picture and music
playback functions take the entertainment experience far beyond
just discs.
