The Real Cinema experience, at home
Way out west in Tinseltown, your favorite films are recorded at 24 frames per second. Unfortunately, most television content is recorded at 30fps, so most televisions are designed to display motion pictures at this speed. Until now, the solution has been to interpolate, or add, artificial scenes into 24fps content in order to "stretch" it to fit a TV's 30fps capability. Recent demands on the part of movie lovers for an authentic home-cinema experience have lead to technological advancements making a 24fps experience possible at home. High definition video like that recorded onto Blu-ray Disc contains 24p (or, progressive-scan 24fps video content) that brings true film into your home. But wait! There's still one more piece the puzzle. While true 24fps film makes it from Hollywood to your Blu-ray player, just like a movie-house feature film, it needs a screen to be enjoyed . . . i.e. your flat panel needs to be able to display 24p content. Enter the 37LH30 with 24p Real Cinema video processing. These technology makes your new LH30-Series LCD fully capable of displaying 24fps video thanks to specific video processing that reproduces film-based images as video content.
Vroom, vroom
Video processing isn't video processing without an engine. An XD Engine, that is. This LG-exclusive technology uses advanced video processing to optimize black levels and panel brightness, to enhance color, and to reduce image noise and artifacts. Additionally, XD Engine technology provides de-interlacing of analog signals, making these compatible with the performance level of modern flat panel technologies. From style on the outside to advanced technologies on the inside, your home HD experience begins with the LG 37LH30.
The other half
The advanced HD video performance offered by the 37LH30's panel is only half of the story when it comes to the complete home-theater experience. "What's the other half", you might ask? Audio. LG's 2009 line of HDTVs features a unique invisible speaker system that uses minute vibrations from speakers embedded into strategic areas behind the front cabinet to convert the entire front bezel into the speaker system. You get a clean, polished look coupled with an audio soundstage enhance by a wider sound field. Don't just see the kiss, hear the music swell . . . Don't just watch the car chase take a corner, hear the tires squeal.
The other other half
Now, just wait a second. LG's dedication to the audio half of your home-theater experience doesn't stop with invisible speakers. The 37LH30's Clear Voice II technology automatically enhances and amplifies the sound of the human voice's frequency range during scenes when background noise swells, assuring that you catch every last syllable of crucial dialogue.
A side of PC, please
Coming to the rescue in this multiple-component, integrated-system world, the LG 37LH30 serves up an extra helping of connectivity with a PC input. Surf the net, download online movies, play games or get a little work done, all on 37 inches of stunning HD LCD.
