AV Control Center - This component contains the TV tuners and input switching for Hitachi's two-piece Plasma televisions. A single cable connects the AV Control Center to the display, thus eliminating wire clutter and the need for noisy internal cooling fans. In addition, because the pickup for the remote control is located in the display, the AV Control Center and all other home theater components can be placed out of sight - even behind closed doors.
Audio Outputs, Variable - Variable Audio Outputs let you take advantage of the great sound an external stereo system can deliver. Just connect the audio output jacks of the TV to the AUX inputs of your stereo system and you're ready to enjoy outstanding stereo sound. Best of all, you can adjust the volume level (and tone, if available) through the TV remote control.
Bluetooth - Technology specification for short range wireless connection using chips in cellular phones, mobile PCs and other portable devices.
Call Blocking - A feature that allows a user to prevent incoming calls from specified callers.
High Speed Search - The ability to visually search for a specific segment of a video at a faster speed than normal (usually 7 to 21 times faster).
OEM - Original Equipment Manufacturer. Refers to the software or hardware manufacturer before relabelling or distribution.
Portrait, Portrait Mode - The orientation of an image that is taller than it is wide; a setting controlling an output device to properly fit a computer document to the print medium.
Standard Definition TV Format (SDTV) - There are two main digital formats - HDTV and SDTV. SDTV typically does produce better quality images than that of traditional analog TV and pictures somewhat akin to digital cable. However, its images are not nearly as sharp as the images from the ultimate form of digital television _ High-definition TV (HDTV).
