Video Features
Precision Drive 3 System: Precision
Drive 3 reduces errors in playback due to imperfect, scratched or warped DVD
discs.
Video D/A Converter: This player
uses a 108MHz/12-bit video digital-to-analog converter. This high-bit, high
sampling D/A converter helps to reduce digital artifacts to give you a better
picture.
Precision Cinema Progressive Technology:
Sony's Precision Cinema Progressive (PCP) system detects image changes
at the Pixel level. As a result, 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.
HDMI Output With Video Upscaling:
The DVP-SR510H reads the data on a standard DVD disc at 480P and maximizes the
video resolution to best fit your HDMI compatible TV. This unit can upscale a
standard DVD 480p video signal to 720p, 1080i or 1080p through its HDMI output.
This allows for you to enjoy the best in video performance while delivering
digital video and audio over one simple cable.
Slideshow Playback With Sound: The
DVP-SR510H lets you display images as a slideshow with or without sound. If you
want to play a slideshow with sound, you'll need to place the JPEG files and MP3
files in the same folder or you can use one of the player's pre-recorded
background sounds. During a slideshow you
can select one of the following transition effects:
- Mode 1: images randomly cycle
through the effects
- Mode 2: next image slides over
the previous image
- Mode 3: image sweeps in from

Audio Features
Audio D/A Converter: This player
features a 192kHz/24-bit audio digital-to-analog converter.
Digital Audio Output Capabilities:
You can select the sampling frequency and word length of the audio signal to be
output via the digital coaxial output. You can select 48kHz/16-bit or 96kHz/24-bit. When
set to 48kHz/16-bit, the audio signals are always converted to 48kHz/16-bit.
When set to 96kHz/24-bit, all types of signals, including 96kHz/24-bit, are
output in their original format. However, if the signal is encrypted for
copyright protection purposes, the signal is output as 48kHz/16-bit.
TV Virtual Surround (TVS): TV
Virtual Surround generates a convincing surround sound effect using only two
stereo speakers; either with a stereo receiver or directly from the television
speakers. You can turn this feature Off or select one of the following settings:
- TVS Dynamic Theater: Uses
sound imaging to create a large set of virtual rear speakers and a virtual
subwoofer; effective when the front speakers are close together, like the
TV's speakers.
- TVS Dynamic: Uses sound
imaging to create a single set of virtual rear speakers; also effective when
the front speakers are close together.
- TVS Wide: Uses sound imaging
to create five pair of virtual rear speakers; effective when the front
speakers are close together.
- TVS Night:
Large sounds, such
as explosions, are suppressed, but the quieter sounds are unaffected.
- TVS Standard: Uses sound
imaging to create three pair of virtual rear speakers; effective when using
separate front speakers that are farther apart.
Audio DRC (Dynamic Range Control):
The dynamic range is lowered so the dialogue stays clear without dynamic bursts
of special effects; choose Standard (DRC off), TV Mode, or Wide Range. Audio DRC
can be used with any DVD.
A/V Sync: This feature allows for
the alignment of the audio track to match the video which is necessary for some
new televisions that buffer or delay video.
Remote Control
Multibrand TV Remote: The supplied remote
is pre-programmed to operate this unit and a number of functions on certain
brands of televisions.
