2 The Faroudja DVP2200 Video Processor is the
ideal solution for optimizing the growing selection
of display devices that require high performance
results.
The unit is a precision video instrument used to
convert NTSC or PAL interlaced signals into
high-resolution progressively scanned images .
The DVP2200 removes typical video processing
artifacts while also increasing color purity and
image detail by using a process called Picture
Plus-„¢ technology. (See page 3 for details).
It offers unique flexibility to select different scan
rates and aspect ratios to get the most out of the
display device whether it be a CRT, LCD, DLP or
Plasma based display.
First the DVP2200 is a Scaler that offers two
scan rates, 480p for NTSC, 576 for PAL or
800x600 for both NTSC and PAL, depending on
the requirements of the display device. The
second part is Aspect Ratio selection. This
allows for perfect image geometry no matter what
type of source used, either Letterbox,
Anamorphic or 4:3. Since the DVP2200
manipulates the aspect ratio, the display only
needs one memory.The DVP2200 accepts all types of interlaced
sources; Composite, S-Video and Component. It
also has connections for any high resolution
source such as HDTV or Computer to pass-
through to the display.
It offers a 10-bit color decoder for noise free color
reproduction. A Time Base Corrector helps to
stabilize unstable sources such as VHS tapes
and video games.
The DP2200 comes with a multi-function smart
remote control that allows for both toggle and
direct access control of all functions plus has the
commands for seven other theater devices
already loaded into its memory.Product DescriptionOn June 24, 1998 Yves Faroudja was awarded theprestigious Charles F. Jenkins Lifetime Achievement
Award from the Academy of Television Arts and
Sciences for his video processing technology. Faroudjas
first Emmy was awarded in 1991. Some of this award
winning technology is used in the DVP2200.
