Panasonic DMP-BD60 Single-disc black Blu-ray Disc player

Experience true cinema viewing right in your living room

There are a lot of differences between going to the movie theater and staying home watching a flick. But the differences don't have to be in the quality of the visual and audio experience. The increased resolution of Blu-ray Discs was a step in the right direction. Panasonic's DMPBD60 takes things a few steps further with technology like the PHL Reference Chroma processor and the p conversion processor. These two bits of electronic intelligence combine to create UniPhier, a precise digital video processor that produces sharp, crisp, natural colors that are extremely faithful to the original movie.

The ultimate playback source for high definition 1080p content

Blu-ray media offers a wide range of functions that foster the transition to HD including 1080p image quality, lossless Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, and versatile picture-in-picture applications. The DMPBD60 adds the new BD-Live function, which uses the Internet to further enhance your entertainment experience by allowing you to download additional contents and share the information with other BD-Live users. You can also use Viera Cast, an internet functionality that will let you access Amazon.com's huge library of Video On Demand titles. An included SD memory card slot gives you even more flexibility to watch HD videos or slideshows you've recorded on your own. Don't be tied down to one format. The DMPBD60 gives you the freedom to access HD content wherever you want it.

HD networking with an SD card

Networking is an essential product of the DMPBD60. The included memory card slot allows for easy transferring of images from an HD camcorder or digital still camera via an SD memory card. You can simply insert the SD card into the DMPBD60 to view images on a large screen HD flat panel television with AVCHD format video images or JPEG stills in full 1920 x 1080 resolution.

One-touch control from your TV's remote

With the DMPBD60's VIERA Link&trade HDAVI control, you can control your Blu-ray Disc player and all your Panasonic home theater components with your TV's remote. Simply press the VIERA Link button and select "BD Player" on the menu screen; the DMPBD60's menu will be displayed and you can begin playback.
