26" black 720p LCD HDTV

Delivering an affordable HD video experience, the Toshiba 26AV502U's 26", 720p LCD panel features DynaLight™ dynamic backlight control for deeper blacks and enhanced detail. Additionally, TheaterWide® modes optimize this panel's performance for widescreen DVD video. Built-in digital and analog tuners make this LCD ready for video from any source, while two HDMI, two HD component video, and one PC input offer optimal connectivity.

A great introduction to the HD experience

With its clear, detailed 1366 x 768p resolution, the 26" Toshiba 26AV502U LCD HDTV brings you both high definition video and progressive-scan display for smoother, more lifelike motion images. Further, 10-bit internal digital video processing fuels your video experience with fast, accurate video processing that keeps pace with your favorite fast-action scenes. Finally, the DynaLight™ dynamic backlight control — delivering enhanced black levels for sharp, lifelike detail — teams up with three color-temperature control settings (warm, medium, and cool) for startlingly vivid and real video optimized to light conditions in your home theater.

Rediscover widescreen DVD video

The Toshiba 26AV502U's 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio and HD 720p resolution are great for watching high definition video content, but what about your DVDs? All DVD video has a 720 x 480 resolution, and most DVDs can be purchase in a standard or widescreen format. You of course, being a reputable videophile, purchased your entire DVD library in widescreen so as to enjoy the entire picture as the director intended. That, however, was when movie night was hosted on your old tube TV. Now that you've got the HD 26AV502U . . . what's to guarantee that your DVDs will look just as good on your new flat panel? The answer: Toshiba's TheaterView®. This technology allows the 26AV502U's panel to display enhanced widescreen television and DVD video. Three different modes adjust and optimize DVD video based on different recording and formatting methods for a truly theater-like home DVD experience.

A side of PC, please

Coming to the rescue in this multiple-component, integrated-system world, the Toshiba 26AV502U 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 26 inches of stunning HD LCD.

Get tuned in

Geared up and ready for the up-and-coming digital transition (the government mandated switch to all-digital television broadcasting) your new Toshiba 26AV502U comes equipped with digital ATSC and QAM tuners. These digital tuners make receiving and enjoying digitally broadcast content — whether from the air or from cable or satellite — easy and worry-free.

HDMI: advanced connectivity

Bringing you the absolute best in connectivity, Toshiba's 26AV502U features two HDMI connections. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the only interface in consumer electronics that can carry both uncompressed high-definition (HD) video and uncompressed multi-channel audio in all HD formats including 720p, 1080i and even 1080p. Your incoming media content comes in a variety of sizes, resolutions and formats, and with that in mind, HDMI systems automatically configure to display that content in the most effective format. Since HDMI carries all channels on video and audio, there is only one cable to plug into any HDMI-enabled source and display device. No more complicated cable set-up when installing your home theater system, and no more ugly cable mess behind your components. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on this single cable. Also, HDMI is fully backward-compatible with DVI. (Please note that a physical adapter, sold separately, is needed to make the conversion from HDMI to DVI.)

Avoid the 'No Wire' ire

The advent of HDMI has been monumental in the advancement of all your favorite audio and video gadgets. Don't miss out on all that your new 26AV502U offers — in terms of high-definition audio and video connectivity — by leaving a set of HDMI cables off the list.
