Bonusview Functions


Make the Most of Blu-ray Discs	Blu-ray Discs are one of the best ways to take advantage of the great entertainment that high-definition video and audio makes possible. Since a single-layer disc holds 25GB of data, a Blu-ray Disc stores five times more data than a standard DVD, providing superb picture resolution and surround sound. The BD-S2900 offers compatibility with the latest Blu-ray Disc format and the finest audio and video quality, as well as the latest features like Picture-in-Picture (Secondary Video/Audio) and Virtual Package.

Secondary Video (Picture-in-Picture)/Audio	Secondary Video lets you view a smaller picture inside the main picture (with compatible Blu-ray Discs). Secondary Audio lets you hear the smaller picture’s audio as well. Both can be selected from the BD-S2900 remote control.

Virtual Package	This feature lets you combine information from a Blu-ray Disc with local storage information on an SD card to enjoy additional content and services as they become available.

High Picture/Sound Quality


1080p/24fps-Compatible HDMI Output	1080p is the highest level of video resolution, and the BD-S2900 can output these video signals directly to a receiver via the HDMI output. Generally, these signals are sent at 60 frames per second (FPS) but the BD-S2900 can also transmit 24fps signals, which is the same frame rate that movies are shot at. This provides a much sharper picture, with smoother motion.

12-Bit Deep Color	HDMI also supports a technology called Deep Color, which increases the number of bits available for transmission, meaning more colors! In fact, with 12-bit compatibility, the BD-S2900 can provide 4,096 shades of each of the three primary colors. That means 4,0963 for a total of 68.7 billion possible colors, which in practical terms results in much great color fidelity, smooth tonal transitions and ultra-fine gradations between colors. It also enables many times more shades of gray, for higher contrast ratio.

HD Audio Bitstream	The digital audio signals from high bit-rate audio signals (Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio) are output directly from the player to the receiver (via an HDMI cable), without conversion to PCM. By using a receiver with HD audio decoders, the sound you hear will be exactly the same as the originally recorded material.
