Watch TV How And When You Want
Enjoy high-quality TV with the VAIO XL3 Digital Living System. It's TV on your terms. With built-in NTSC and ATSC TV tuners and CableCARD support, you can watch and record Analog and Digital TV directly to the hard drive for on-demand viewing (includes premium and over-the-air HD content). The VAIO XL3 Digital Living System is also Digital cable ready. It features an OCUR receiver, which is a Digital cable receiver and interface that accepts a TV CableCARD. The CableCARD removable security module, which must be obtained from your local service provider, allows you to access the Digital cable channels to which you subscribe without the need for a set-top-box. Windows Vista Home Premium with Media Center functionality acts as your DVR, letting you record and catalog your favorite TV programs to the hard drive. These innovative tools let you consolidate your entertainment center by replacing your HD DVR and Digital cable set-top-box with the VAIO XL3, the ultimate entertainment PC for your living room.
An Amazing Capacity For Entertainment
The VAIO XL3 Digital Living System isn't just for watching TV or movies. You can connect it to the optional VGP-XL1B3 (sold separately) 200 disc CD/DVD Changer/Recorder for a new, interactive entertainment experience. Load up to 200 CDs and rip them all to your XL3. Or load up to 200 DVDs and watch them all from your XL3. Discs inserted into the XL1B3 Changer/Recorder are automatically detected by your PC, which downloads metadata for each disc, including box art and artist information, making browsing your CD/DVD collection easy and fun. And with multi-DVD burning, you can conserve PC hard drive space by automatically archiving your favorite TV programs to DVD. Got more than 200 discs to load? Never fear, just get another XL1B3 and daisy chain it together via Firewire link. You can connect as many as you need to store your discs. How's that for simple?
Video Playback Beyond High Definition
Whether you're watching a Hollywood title in HD or enjoying Crystal Clear video captured from your compatible HDV camcorder, the VAIO XL3 Digital Living System is capable of playing high definition Blu-ray Disc movies in stunning clarity and incredible full HD 1080 Resolution. And since the Blu-ray Disc optical drive is backwards-compatible with the format of your CDs and DVD collection, you can still enjoy your existing entertainment library on the VAIO XL3.
Intuitive Content Management
The VGXXL3 Digital Living System makes it easy and intuitive to manage and enjoy your content. With the included wireless remote control and keyboard, you can opt to interface with the unit the way you do with a traditional PC or choose the experience of controlling your files and discs from the comfort of your couch. And the optimized Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium system makes content management a breeze. The VGXXL3 can access meta data, so you can view the contents of your entertainment library with cover art, liner notes and track listings.
Traditional PC Functionality
In addition to being the ultimate A/V entertainment center, the VGXXL3 Digital Living System is an incredibly powerful PC, delivering robust performance for running multiple demanding applications simultaneously. Sure, you can browse the Web and check your e-mail.
