Put simply, HD Digital Film Direct
means “Master Quality”: what you see and hear on your flat-screen is exactly as
the film-makers intended. Absolutely true to the original.
We’ve applied
this standard as a label (see the logo on the right) to those of our products
that accurately handle 24fps (frames per second) movie content; this will help
you make the right product choice for the true HD movie experience.
Films are typically shot, developed and encoded for cinema reproduction at
24fps.
Regular PAL broadcasting and DVD have always played these images back at 25
fps (50Hz).
This has the effect of speeding up images and raising the pitch of sounds and
voices.
But, the new high definition discs, like Blu-ray Disc, offer you access to a
digitised ”true to the original” copy of the theatrical movie content.
We offer a product range that is perfectly matched for bringing the real
cinema experience into your home: amplifiers, Blu-ray Disc players, home cinema
systems and flat-screen TVs with our trademark screening of 24fps source input
at 72Hz (3 images displayed per original frame).
