Product Details

Sony Progressive Scan DVD Player, Model DVPNS55PB

Sony’s DVPNS55P is a versatile DVD player with many features at an affordable price. It delivers excellent picture and sound quality so you get the most out of your movies. The Precision Drive 3 system allows you to playback some DVDs that may have been damaged or warped without a degradation of picture quality. Sony’s Precision Cinema Progressive is also included to get those video images sharper and more vibrant. Though it’s an excellent DVD player, it can also be used as your CD or MP3 player. For gatherings, use it to share photos with friends and families. You can’t go wrong with this stylish home-theater sized DVD player, it is a perfect complement to your TV.

Features:

  • Precision Drive™ 3 System
    Past generations of Precision Drive systems were only able to compensate for warped discs by moving the entire optical block, which took more time and limited the amount of correction possible. Sony's new Precision Drive™ 3 system simplifies the process by moving the lens-instead of the entire optical block-for faster and more accurate error correction in DVD discs.
  • Precision Cinema Progressive™ Technology
    Other DVD players detect image changes at the scan line level-Sony's Precision Cinema Progressive (PCP) system detects them at the pixel level. The picture is more faithful to the source-whether film or video-because separate, optimized algorithms are used to handle the differing pixel behavior. Separate algorithms are also used to process the moving and still parts of an image, resulting in sharp backgrounds with moving objects that are virtually free from motion artifacts.
  • MP3 Playback
    Playing MP3 Music on a Sony DVD player is easy. Just insert an MP3 encoded disc and press MENU. A blue screen pops up to display your folders. Scroll down the list using the remote or front panel cursor control to select the folder you want. The green files screen pops up to show the files in the selected folder. Select the file you want to hear and you're done. Finding music couldn't be easier.

This DVD player allows you to select specific chapters or segments on your DVD's and arrange them in any order of play that you want. For example, I use the player for my home exercise workouts. Particularly, I play strength training dvd's and can vary my workout by the order in which I play the various dvd chapters. Chest, back, and shoulders today. Arms, legs, and abs tomorrow. This DVD player is great.
