Ciao, Mauro CB
<MODE Copia_e_incolla ON>
Dear Mauro CB,
SIM2 Multimedia, the leading manufacturer in home theatre applications,
announces a new version of the HT200 DLPTM technology-based model - the
HT200DM (Dual Mode) - the latest addition to the Grand Cinema series. The
award-winning HT200 will also have a version with new features that will
take this Grand Cinema projector to a higher level.
The new HT200DM projector - based on the new 480p DLP™ component set by
Texas Instruments - has been designed specifically to match the 16:9
widescreen standard. The HT200DM provides two different resolution modes
(selectable by remote control):
1. the 16:9 widescreen standard with a resolution of 848 x 480 pixels - the
HT200DM delivers top quality, distortion-free images without artefacts
resulting from digital down-scaling.
2. the normal 4:3 video format with a resolution of 800 x600 pixels – best
for computer image display or traditional 4:3 video sources (VHS, etc.).
Also, the HT200DM is equipped with a new 6-segment colour wheel (instead of
the 4-segment normally used) that, by increasing the frequency of the
coloured images, mitigates the colour separation artefacts (also called
"rainbow effect") which are visible to a small part of the population. The
colour wheel is customised to SIM2 specifications having a larger Red
segment and smaller Green and Blue segments. Indeed, this new,
state-of-the-art colour wheel further improves the colorimetry of the image
displayed.
So if you are looking for excellent colour balance and saturation, and you
have top quality video processing equipment and DVD players, the HT200DM
will deliver every bit of information in those signals onto your screen.
Indeed, handling clear, content-rich signals is where the HT200DM shines.
The HT200DM will be unveiled for the first time at the 2001 Home
Entertainment Show (New York, 11-13 May 2001). Availability is forecasted
for June 2001.
Powerful and fully compatible with a wide range of multimedia signal
sources, yet very small, light and stylish, SIM2's HT200DM provides the
ideal solution for users who want to have a future-ready projection system
in place to meet the growing demand for 16:9 images without pre-processing.
With these new special features, SIM2 continues to raise the bar of
excellence in projector performance.

Eh, caro Romano, che vuoi farci, io l'ho prelevato, l'ho portato da te, l'ho
riaccompagnato, m'ha fatto pure perdere per Roma vantando il suo senso
dell'orientamento (:-D!!!!!) e nonostante tutto ancora parla di DLP!
Uff, certa gente, che si deve fare.........
;-)))))))))))
ciao Mauro, ricordati la faccia estasiata con tanto di occhiali sollevati
sulla testa che avevi a casa di Rò!!! E ogni volta che ti viene in mente un
DLP pensa al cotton fiock!!!!!

Possibile che per noi poveri "PAL" non ci pensi mai nessuno?

Ci avranno anche pensato ma la limitazione sta nella matrice
(che rimane ancora poco piu' di una 4:3 a 800x600).
848x480 e' una matrice 16:9 ricavata da una 4:3 "estesa",
il vantaggio sta nel fatto che non vi e' ricompressione verticale
(con una matrice pura di 800x600 invece avresti in 16:9 una
risoluzione di 800x450 con ricompressione verticale, sempre
nell'ottica di voler sfruttare il maggior numero di pixel della matrice).
il corrispondente in PAL sarebbe: 1024x576... ossia la matrice di un HT250
(1024x768 matrice 4:3) ... i DLP con matrice NATIVA in 16:9
(e risoluzione di 1280x720) dovrebbero arrivare verso fine anno.
Altrimenti e' necessario ricorrere a lenti anamorfiche...
ciao!
