DPX-1300

DLP

720P DarkChip3™ Engine This DLP chip is Texas Instruments’ most advanced Digital Micro Mirror Device. As the name implies, it provides deeper blacks, while improving contrast in dark areas. Projector is equipped with the latest DMD HD2+ device, which uses narrow mirror gaps to improve contrast. Video processing is 10-bit from A/D conversion through to DMD output.

HDMI

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is the first and only industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. With the ability to deliver crystal-clear, all-digital audio and video via a single cable, HDMI dramatically simplifies cabling and helps provide consumers with the highest-quality home theater experience. HDMI can provide an interface between any audio/video source, such as a set-top box, DVD player, or A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor, such as a digital television (DTV), over a single cable.

Depending on the model of product, HDMI can support standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable . It can transmit all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-channel, 192kHz, uncompressed digital audio and all currently-available compressed formats (such as Dolby Digital and DTS), newer HDMI devices can support HDMI 1.3 technology which adds additional support for new lossless digital audio formats Dolby® TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio™.

HQV

New 10-Bit Video Signal Processing Designed for discerning home theater fans, the DPX-1300 utilizes 10-bit video signal processing from A/D conversion all the way through to DMD output. In addition, the newest HQV technology from Silicon Optix Inc. has been adopted to enable programmable per-pixel processing. Plus, at high-definition TV resolution, high-level deinterlacing processing (1080i to 1080p) is performed is performed at the pixel level. Complex cadences are handled with ease, not only with 3:2 pulldown, but also with broadcast film and animation programing, for smooth, stable de-interlacing. Other remarkable technologies include highly detailed scaling processing, jaggy line reduction for HD sources. To further improve DVD or SD TV picture quality, powerful Digital Video Noise Reduction minimizes mosquito noise and block noise. An Overshoot Suppressor is more natural outlines in images.

MAIN FEATURES

The DPX-1300 builds on the impressive accomplishments of Yamaha projectors to deliver an extraordinary high level of video performance. The latest DarkChip3™ device delivers an incredible 5,000:1 contrast, while brightness is 800 ANSI lumens. But there's more - the video signal processing circuitry realizes 10-bit processing from input to DMD, while programmable per-pixel processing and other performance is to the standards of the newest HQV ™ technology from Silicon Optix Inc. The result is the highest level of video processing available in a digital cinema projector.

High Performance De-interlacing Processing

At high-definition TV resolution, high-level de-interlacing processing (1080i / 1080p) is performed at the pixel level. Complex cadences are handled, not only with 3:2 pulldown, but also with broadcast film and animation programming, for smooth, stable de-interlacing.

Yamaha's Exclusive Overshoot Suppressor

In any video source, video noise which can occur which causes an 'overshoot' effect that degrades image outlines. The Yamaha exclusive Overshoot Suppressor employs high-level Yamaha video processing technology which detects and reduces this 'overshoot' effect for more natural-looking image reproduction.

High Precision Scaling Processing and Jaggy Line Reduction

The superior performance 2D digital filter provides high precision scaling. By detecting lines in multiple directions it reduces noticeable jaggy lines between borders.

3D + Digital Video Noise Reduction Systems

Powerful 3D Noise Reduction is incorporated, along with Digital Video Noise Reduction to minimize mosquito noise and block noise to minimize their bad influence on digitally encoded images.

Yamaha Natural Black Concept

The Yamaha Natural Black concept was the result of the development of new technologies, parts and functions designed to achieve truer, deeper levels of black in this class of digital cinema projectors.

The Latest DarkChip3™ DMD™ Device

The DPX-1300 is equipped with the 720p 0.8" DarkChip3™ DMD™ device. As the name implies, it uses narrow mirror gaps to improve contrast, delivering deeper blacks and improved contrast in dark areas.

High Resolution Lens and Other Key Features

The DPX-1300 uses a superior quality high-resolution lens and a seven-segment color wheel with an ND filter-equipped green segment. Other key features include motorized iris control, Cinema Zoom, the Natural Color Adjustment System, horizontal/vertical Keystone correction and custom installation compatibility.

Versatile Interfaces with HDMI and DVI

In addition to the Component Video, RGB Video, Composite video and S-Video input terminals, the DPX-1300 is also equipped with HDMI and DVI digital interface terminals.
