As part of Toshiba's TheaterWide™ Series, this HD LCD TV has a 23" screen with built in DVD player. With built in speakers and a 1366x768 pixel screen, you'll be sure to enjoy quality sound and picture with this space-saving flat screen TV.

Looks Great, Fits Nicely

The 23HLV85 delivers the ultimate in convenience by combining a 23" HD LCD display with a built-in slot-loading DVD player, speakers and 181 channel tuner. No more worrying about hooking up your DVD player and making room for a TV plus other components. A virtual surround sound feature provides a full audio effect from stereo sources. Of course with a full range of connections (HD component video, S-Video, coaxial digital audio, HDMI digital), you could hook up this TV/DVD player to your system, but it's capable of a superb performance all by itself. With the 15 Pin D-Sub input it's also possible to use it as a computer monitor! That's nice right, but, if for you image is everything, you'll be glad to know it provides superb functionality and a stunning picture with a 720p True High Definition screen. It's perfect for viewing high definition, standard television signals and DVD movies.

Image Is Important

Perhaps most important to this screen is that it's a LCD projector. A LCD projector works like a flashlight to create an image. The white light is separated into red, green, and blue beams, which are fed separately through the panels, recombined to create the full color image, then enlarged to fill your screen. The panel resolution of 1366 x 768 makes this a screen which produces detailed pictures. This LCD projector is lightweight, but provides rich colors and sharp contrast for a huge, high-quality image. The HD Dynamic Contrast feature of the 23HLV85 increases contrast and color saturation to create deep, rich images. It's intelligent circuitry analyzes both the dark and bright areas of the picture, and separately optimizes the dynamic range in each area of the picture. Contrast ratio is extremely important to Toshiba and is part of the reason their TVs have such great picture quality. Contrast ratio is the proportion between the brightest and darkest sections of an image. The higher the contrast ratio, the clearer the image and the better the picture. For example, 500:1 is better than 200:1. The higher contrast ratio of 500:1 on this TV/DVD player produces the well-defined, realistic images while the 3DYC Digital Comb Filter with Vertical Contour Correction also help keep images looking their best. There's a Movie and Sports Mode and a Cinema Mode to make your favorite activities more enjoyable and the TheaterWide Modes are ideal for HDTV signals and enhanced DVDs. There are five options to chose from so you can crop the pictures as you like. Isn't it nice to know that quality doesn't have to be sacrificed for convenience?

Sounds Good To Me

Quality images may be what you desire most, but the audio features on this TV/DVD player aren't anything to sneeze at either; it's features create a dramatically improved home theater sound. The SRS WOW technology creates a more enveloping sound with enhanced bass and better dialogue reproduction. This system is a combination of three unique sound field enhancements: SRS 3D TruSurround to create a wide, three-dimensional sound field from two TV speakers, TruBass for boosting bass for dramatic low frequency effects, and, FOCUS to raise the sound image vertically for clearer voices, even at lower volume levels. SRS WOW technology takes the performance of the television's existing speakers to a whole new level-without additional speakers. And for those of you who just hate it when loud commercials unexpectedly blast you out of your socks, the StableSound feature maintains the volume within a preset range, regardless of the source signal.

Easy Entertainment

Like all of Toshiba's TV combination models, this one also offers very user-friendly features and advanced functionality that make operation a breeze, including an illuminated universal remote control for easy operation in a dark living room. It's ergonomically designed and pre-programmed to operate all functions of the TV, and key functions of most cable boxes, VCRs and DVD players. The HDMI (High Definition MultiMedia Interface) is the next generation of DVI (Digital Visual Interface) and provides the best interface between a DVD player and compatible products (like DTV). This single interconnecting cable can combine multi-channel audio, uncompressed digital video, inter-communication between devices and simple control rules. The 23HLV85 is also stacked with convenient features-like a Tri-lingual color icon on-screen display to ensure you can have a friendly interaction with your TV, an on/off timer so you can do things like fall asleep with the TV on, and wake up to the news. It's also family-friendly. The easy front inputs will let you effortlessly plug in your camcorder or video game. The V-chip let's you censor TV programs for your children while GamerTimer lets you set the television to shut off (and stay locked until you enter the lockout code) after a specific period of time so you won't have to fight with the kids about how long they've been using it. The easy front inputs will let you effortlessly plug in your camcorder or video game.

Disc Playback

The 23HLV85 will play DVD, DVD-R/RW, VCD, CD, and CD-R/RW discs. It even plays WMA and MP3 files burned to CD-R and CD-RW media. The built-in JPEG viewer allows you to display digital photographs on the LCD screen. Just load the CD with your favorite photographs and create a custom slide show simply using the included remote control.
