Prep Your DVDs for the HDTV Experience

You just dropped all sorts of money on an HDTV, so you’re gonna want a DVD player that’ll treat it with the respect it so badly deserves. A normal DVD player will do OK, but its standard-def discs won’t make any extra effort to look sharp and clear on a screen used to being graced with pristine HD images.

The Philips DVP5960/37 HDMI DVD Player doesn’t mess around with your new high-def purchase. It goes the extra mile and upscales your DVDs to 1080i HD. It can’t exactly create extra resolution out of thin air, but it does its best to clean things up and optimize your discs for viewing on HD sets. In addition, its slim, sleek design will look great with that flat panel number you picked up, as it doesn’t deserve to be stuck perched over some ugly box. You know how it is with these things, once you upgrade one item you’ve got to upgrade the rest. You might as well just embrace it.

Most DVD players can synthetically interpolate a 480 DVD for viewing on a 720p or 1080i screen using HDMI. It's not the same as HD. You want true 720p, go for BluRay.
