Traditional standard definition TV pictures are broadcast at a size of
720 x 576 pixels, or picture elements, but high-definition pictures are
sent at up to 1920 x 1080 pixels. The number of picture elements transmitted
per second is five times greater; and more pixels means better picture
quality.
HDTV pictures have greatly increased clarity and detail, and far more
vivid colours, which explains the fascination of HDTV images viewed on
large, high-quality flat-panel displays, or home-cinema projectors.
With a compatible home cinema system you will also be able to enjoy more
channels featuring Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound.
