Amazon.com Product Description

Bring vibrantly lifelike video to your home theater with the 50-inch Audiovox FPE5016P plasma HDTV, which offers a slimmer fit thanks to the two detachable side-mounted speakers and removable tilting base (which enables you to mount the set to a wall with optional VESA-compatible hardware). This set has a built-in 181-channel NTSC tuner as well as an ATSC tuner for over-the-air HD reception. You can also view high-definition programming (1080i/720p/480p/480i) when connected to an optional receiver or cable/satellite set-top box via the component video inputs. It also offers pure digital audio/video connectivity via a single cable with the HDMI input.

The FPE5016P has a 1366 x 768-pixel resolution, 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio, 165-degree viewing angle, and amazing 2500:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.)

The 3D digital comb filter constantly analyzes the three dimensions of picture height, picture width, and picture changes-over-time, to reduce dramatically edge image artifacts while improving transition detail. This set also performs automatic 3:3/2:2 pulldown detection--a handy feature for watching progressive-scan movie programs in their native 24-frame format. To adapt 24 frames-per-second movies to 30 fps video, frames in the original movie must be duplicated; 3:2 pulldown digitally corrects this duplication by removing the redundant information to display a frame-accurate picture.

It also features Faroudja's Emmy award-winning DCDi (Directional Correlational Deinterlacing) technology, which helps to eliminate the jagginess found in non-HD video content. FaroudjaÕs unique DCDi algorithm identifies all the moving edges in a scene and adjusts the angle of interpolation at each pixel so that the interpolation always follows the edge instead of crossing it, eliminating staircasing or jagged edge artifacts.

Other features include pre-programmed picture control/color temperature and sound settings, closed captioning, V-Chip parental controls, picture-in-picture (PIP) and picture freeze capability, and a USB 2.0 port for connecting an external digital audio or video device. It provides the following connections:

• Composite audio/video: 2 in, 1 out
• S-Video: 1 in
• Component video: 1 in
• HDMI: 1 in
• PC VGA: 1 in
• RF: 1 in

Tech Talk
Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.

HDMI is a lossless, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface to link any audio/video source (such as a set-top box, DVD player, or AV receiver) with your TV--all over a single cable. It provides up to a 5 GB per second bandwidth for transmitting pure digital video and audio signals with no degradation in the transfer. It can carry up to eight discrete audio channels, making it compatible with 7.1-channel surround sound systems. Signals are encrypted with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) to prevent recording. HDMI is fully backward-compatible with most DVI connections.
