Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Philips 26PF9976 gives you the quality of a high-definition perfectly flat TV married with the convenience of a digital video recorder--without a bulky hard drive and with the ability to easily transport and view your recordings elsewhere. With the LCD TV's built-in digital flash-media recorder you can record and share your digital videos, MP3 music, and JPEG photos--even pause TV as you're watching. The set's multiformat media slot handles Smart Media, SD (Secure Digital), MMC (MultiMedia Card), Memory Stick, Compact Flash, and micro-drive memory. You can enjoy high-quality movies and even a JPEG slideshow while tuned to your favorite MP3 music file.

The 26PF9976 also gives you a high-performance, widescreen (16:9) image from a casing with a depth of little more than 4 inches. The 26-inch set offers high brightness (450 cd/m3) and high contrast (400:1), as well as integrated TV and FM radio tuners for cable or broadcast reception of all your favorite programs and stations. Hook it up to an optional DTV receiver or progressive-scan DVD player and you'll enjoy vivid, detailed images from 1080i, 720p, and 480p sources, which render at up to 720p resolution on the set's native 1,024 x 768-pixel screen.

LCD technology allows screens to be thinner and televisions to be lighter and more energy-efficient than ever before. The result is television that not only fits on a wall, but fits in places conventional televisions cannot. The 26PF9976's comes outfitted with Digital Crystal Clear technology, a suite of picture innovations including Dynamic Contrast, a 3D digital comb filter, color-transient improvement (CTI), and green-/blue-stretch color enhancement.

A feature called Active Control Plus continually adjusts picture settings at over 60 times per second for all inputs, correcting both sharpness and noise reduction, even adjusting for changes in ambient viewing light.

PIP features include standard picture-in-picture (a second source image inset within the main image), picture-by-picture (split-screen viewing), and picture-in-graphics (video source over PC image).

The set pumps 5 watts per channel x 2 RMS (10 watts x 2 peak power), and onboard Dolby Virtual Surround simulates enveloping surround sound from any 2 speakers. FM tuning options include 40 convenient presets, RDS (Radio Data Service) for visual station and song identification, and auto/manual station setting. The unit's .125-inch headphone jack affords private listening.

Audio/video inputs include a direct-digital HDMI input, 1 component-video, 2 S-video, and 1 composite-video connections, as well as a VGA computer input. A convenient side-panel input simplifies spontaneous hookups, and an RJ-45 data port lets you hook the TV up directly to your computer for simplified data transfer from its digital media recorder.

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) 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 an audio and/or video monitor, such as a digital television (DTV). HDMI supports standard-definition (SD), enhanced definition (ED), or high-definition (HD) video, plus multi-channel digital audio--all using a single cable. It transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports up to 8-channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to accommodate future enhancements and requirements.
