Product Description

Whether in homes, factories, offices, airports, or on the street, it's hard to imagine a place where Philips is absent. What Philips wants is to make your life and work easier - and more fun!

"Let's Make Things Better".PRODUCT FEATURES:Integrated NTSC Tuner;Build in DVD player supporting DVD / DVD+R/DVD+RW/CD/CD-R / CD-RW / VCD;2D motion adaptive de-interlacing;2D comb filter;Component HD input;S-video and A/V input;VGA input. Get all your entertainment needs taken care of by a single, stylish package in the 20-inch Magnavox 20MF251W HD-ready LCD TV/monitor, which includes a DVD player integrated into its TV stand/base. You'll be able to watch all your favorite DVD movie and CD audio disc purchases, as well as music and video burned to DVD+R/RW, CD-R/RW and VCD discs. The 20MF251W also offers the versatility to easily switch back and forth between TV viewing and your computer monitor. It comes with a built-in 181-channel NTSC tuner that can accommodate up to 125 cable channels. And it can display crisp high definition video when hooked up to an optional cable/satellite set-top box or HD receiver using the component HD video input.

The 20MF251W delivers a true 1366 x 768-pixel HDTV resolution (capable of displaying 1080i and 720p high-definition signals), and it also features a 8 ms (millisecond) response time for viewing fast-moving content with minimal bluring, 160-degree horizontal viewing angle, 450 cd/m2 (candela per square meter) brightness rating, and 500:1 contrast ratio. (The higher the contrast ratio, the greater a TV's ability to display subtle color details and not get washed out by ambient room light.) The 2D comb filter separates chrominance (color) from luminance (brightness) information in the video signal for independent processing to improve picture resolution and minimize distortion.

This set has two built-in stereo speakers that produce 3 watts of sound per channel (for 6 total watts). It offers the following connection options:

  • Composite AV (RCA): 1 in
  • S-Video: 1 in
  • Component Video: 1 in
  • PC VGA: 1 15-pin D-Sub
  • RF: 1 in

Tech Talk
Component video (also called Y/Pb/Pr) features a three-jack video input, which provides separate connections for luminance (Y), blue color difference (PB) and red color difference (PR). This results in increased bandwidth for color information, resulting in a more accurate picture with clearer color reproduction and less bleeding than you would get with S-Video or composite (RCA yellow video plug) connections. You will need a separate RCA left/right audio cable for sound.
