How Do You Choose A DVD Player?
Many people buy DVD players without paying much attention to the important parameters that affect its performance. Be sure to select a DVD player that has your choice of features. • Buy a Blu-ray disc player if you can. The blu-ray discs store excellent quality pictures and music as their recording contains more information than ordinary DVD recording. It is better to buy an HDTV and a blu-ray player, if you can afford it. Its prices are falling sharply. If you own a standard analog TV, then the standard basic DVD player is sufficient. The analog TV accepts analog inputs and cannot display high quality digital information. When you buy an HDTV you can simply up-convert the existing standard DVD player. The up-conversion process (or upscaling) enhances the standard DVD signal to a high-definition format. The resulting signal gives almost HD [High Definition] signal quality. • Look for common formats. Modern DVD players can play a wide range of media files. The common formats are DVD-R/R
