Latest I/P Converter from Silicon Optix, Inc.
The DVD2930CI uses the latest 10-bit I/P converter "REON-VX" developed through a joint development effort that merged image processing algorithms of Silicon Optix, Inc., and Denon video technology on the foundation of an image processing device. This 10-bit processing offers high conversion performance and dramatically improves motion detection capability. Multi-Directional Diagonal Filter (MDDF) technology, used for the first time in the DVD2930CI, which accurately detects and corrects the directionality of lines on a per-pixel level to avoid "jaggies" that easily appear when video sources are I/P converted, ensuring smooth picture playback.
More Natural Color Correction
The Denon Pixel Image Correction feature that incorporates original Denon enhancement technology and makes high-definition video correction possible, has been advanced to even greater heights in the DVD2930CI. Denon Pixel Image Correction performs detection and correction through 10-bit processing to significantly improve contour correction. This new contour correction circuit uses enhancement processing technology that also considers the influence of pixels surrounding the target pixels. It uses new algorithms to sample and analyze a total of 9 pixels of video data around, and including, each target pixel. Video images are detected and processed in vertical, horizontal, and diagonal directions at a highly detailed per-pixel level to produce contours that are visually more natural and processed to suppress ringing noise and other artifacts that easily occur during enhancement. By performing the type of processing that is most effective for the current video image, the picture is free of degradation and appears more natural.
1080p Output For HDMI
"REON-VX" also works as the high-performance video scaler in the DVD2930CI. This high-precision 10-bit scaler works with HDMI digital video output signals. This scaler executes optimum conversion to suit the output to the independent HDMI transmitters. You can enjoy the best picture quality for your particular applications. This scaler can also output PC resolution VGA/XGA/WXGA and SXGA.
Dual Discrete Video Circuit (DDVC)
The DVD2930CI's video circuit features Denon's own DDVC technology designed to enhance the quality of video signals. The use of dedicated circuits -- one independent block for composite and S-video signals, another block for component signals, and a dual DAC configuration with built-in video encoder -- has made it possible to reproduce detailed video images with greater precision. In order to bring out the maximum quality from both video and audio signals, the DVD2930CI has a discrete configuration in which the video, audio, and digital blocks that comprise this universal player are all completely isolated from each other in terms of their circuit configuration, boards, and power supplies. Denon engineers have used the expertise gained from their development of earlier universal players to design a configuration that thoroughly suppresses mutual interference among the circuits and prevents noise from affecting the video and audio signals.
High-Speed, High-Precision 12-Bit, 216-MHz Video DAC
To ensure that high-grade video signals from the latest high-performance I/P converter are reproduced with utmost fidelity to the original images, the DVD2930CI has an extremely fast and accurate 12-bit, 216-MHz video DAC. Oversampling of 8x for Progressive and 16x for interlaced signals results in sharp, detailed pictures. Composite, S-video and component signals each have their own dedicated video DAC, a design that enhances the reproduction of low-level video signals and reproduces high-definition images that are faithful to the original. In addition, Noise Shaped Video (NSV) technology is used to improve the S/N of video signals and further boost their linearity.
Picture Quality Adjustments
Besides the DPIC feature, a total of 15 picture quality adjustment are possible, including contrast, sharpness, white level, chroma level, noise reduction settings, and gamma. Up to five combinations of settings can also be stored in memory, giving you the freedom to adjust picture quality in considerable detail according to individual preferences.
AL24 Processing
The DVD2930CI employs Advanced AL24 Processing, the ultimate analog wave-form reproduction technology developed by Denon, for use during PCM signal input (during stereo signal processing). In addition to the data expansion of existing AL24 Processing Plus technology, algorithms developed by Denon for use in large-capacity calculation processors such as DSPs and FPGAs are used to interpolate data along the time axis and up-converted sampling is used to achieve natural interpolation without losing original data. Greater optimization in digital filtering has also been achieved for ringing-free pulse response and for music data and attack sounds. This results in more natural reproduction of spacial information such as the delicate nuances in the music, the locations of the performers, and the breadth, height and depth of the concert hall. For multi-channel linear PCM audio playback, AL24 Processing Plus technology works to faithfully reproduce the original sound of recordings.
All Channel Equal 24-Bit, 192-kHz Audio D/A Converter
The DVD2910CI uses a 24-bit, 192-kHz audio D/A converter that is well protected from noise caused by fluctuations in current from the power supply. Since the level of quantization noise within the frequency range is uniform for all frequencies, this D/A converter ensures that all the sound you hear is as clear and noise-free as possible.
