Toshiba 15DLV77 15" LCD TV with Built-In DVD Player Specifications
Now you can play your entertainment library on one versatile machine. Since the 15DLV77 has both a DVD player and a 15-inch screen, you won't have to worry about connecting different electronic components in order to watch your favorite program. This convenience is matched only by its smart, stylish design.
The Value of LCD TVs
Aside from their obvious aesthetic value, LCD TVs are much more practical in the home than CRT (tube-style) televisions. They take up a smaller footprint, and thus use up less floor space in the room. Also, LCD TVs are lighter and easier to move around when cleaning or redecorating. The 15DLV77 is little more than three inches deep and weighs just over 13 pounds. Best of all, LCD screens use less power than CRTs and plasma screens.
The unit has a 1024 x 768 pixel resolution, which puts it in the higher end of standard definition sets. Its traditional 4:3 aspect ratio makes it ideal for watching most DVD content. A built-in comb filter reduces digital artifacts produced by signal noise, making for more detailed images.
Full-Featured DVD Player
The 15DLV77 includes an integrated DVD player compatible with several disc formats: DVD Video, CD-R, CD-RW, VCD and DVD-R. This player is also DivX home theater certified, which means it display popular Internet video formats, such as DivX, AVI, and MPEG4. Want to view photos? Simply move your JPEG photos onto a CD-R or CD-RW disc and the 15DLV77 will provide you access to a slide show of your images with a few clicks on the player's remote control. Similarly, MP3 and WMA-encoded music files recorded to disc will play nicely.
An interesting feature of this player is Digital Picture Zoom, which allows you to select and magnify an area of either freeze-frame or motion video.
Connections
The set has a built-in digital television tuner, so out of the box it can receive digital broadcast ATSC signals and QAM signals used by most digital cable providers. It also has a built-in 181-channel NTSC tuner, so it can also accept traditional analog signals. It also makes these connections:
- ColorStream component video inputs: 1
- S-video: 1
- RCA video inputs: 1 rear and 1 side
- L-R audio inputs: 1 front and 1 side
- Digital audio output for DVD: 1 coaxial
- RF: 1
- Headphone jack: 1
Audio
The 15DLV77's bottom-mount speakers deliver stereo sound, but for those with a 5.1 surround sound system, the 15DLV77 outputs Dolby Digital and dts digital audio through a coaxial port. A front headphone jack allows you to watch TV without disturbing those around you--perfect for late-night viewing. Toshiba's Surround Sound feature uses advanced audio processing to mimic the all-encompasing sound of satellite speakers. Toshiba's StableSound feature maintains television volume within a preset range regardless of the source signal. This is an extremely useful feature when transitioning between a quiet television program and a very loud commercial advertisement or when changing channels.
