Toshiba HD-DVD Player HD-XA1 HD-A1
Toshiba Corp has announced its first HD-DVD players. There will be two models, a low-end player called the HD-A1 priced at around US$500, and a second player, the HD-XA1, priced at $800. Both will output a 720p and 1080i (720 line progressive scanning and 1080 lines interlaced scanning) high-definition signal via HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) to a compatible high-definition TV. Both products can also play current DVDs and will up-convert a standard-definition picture from DVD to high definition, which is said to make it clearer. The machines also support a number of audio formats that are part of HD-DVD, including Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS and DTS HD. The more expensive HD-XA1 player has four digital signal processors, said Toshiba. Look for them in the U.S. in March of this year.
