HD6400W Digital Projection Television and Remote Control T he Marantz HD6400W Digital Projection Television (DPTV) represents an advanced first step con- cept in integrated digital products. Designed for discrete and cross-over system functionality the HD6400W will support traditional NTSC Television standards, receive all certified FCC defined ATSC digital transmission formats, as well as perform PC Monitor Display capa- bility. Although future plans allow for the two televi- sion broadcast systems to coexist for a number of years, the eagerly awaited transition from analog (NTSC) to digi- tal (ATSC) high-defini- tion television has begun. The Marantz HD6400W DPTV is uniquely posi- tioned to operate within both current and future video signal formats. The HD6400W will pro- vide the largest of view- ing windows into an unprecedented era of high-definition picture resolutions, digital sur- round sound playback, and access to a variety of entertainment and interactive services.

Cancel Installing - Digital Channel Selection Delay - • Due to the tuning complexity of “subchannel” digital programming (see explanation section to the left), the time to select and view a digital channel may take slightly longer than what the viewer is normally accus- tomed to (as compared to Analog channel programs.) Digital channel broadcasts contain program and system data information that also must be processed before the channel selection can be displayed. Analog vs. Digital Antenna Signals (Strength and Direction Traits) • Existing analog broadcast signals experience increasing picture snow/ghosts/or interference as the transmitted signal travels further from the original broadcasting tower. The farther out you move the reception point, the more the broadcast signal degrades or grows weaker. • Digital broadcast reception maintains a clearer, more interference free picture throughout its broadcast range, but once the limit of its broad- cast range is reached the picture will quickly drop from the screen (rather than a slower pic- ture quality degrade as is the case with analog reception.) - DTV Antenna Reception - • Contact your dealer for the best DTV Antenna reception options available for your area. Both Indoor and Outdoor omni- directional UHF/VHF antennas can be used to receive digital broadcast signals, but seek your dealer’s expert advice for the best in quality equipment to match your DPTV.

Add/Delete Channel Add This Major Channel Delete This Major Channel Back Features Menu Captions Format Captions On/Off Add/Delete Channel Parental Control Back Caption 1 Always On Note: The new standards (for bandwidth and signal com- pression) employed with digi- tal ATSC broadcasting make it possible to receive multiple program channels under a single “major” channel num- ber. For example, under a tra- ditional channel “6” broad- cast program number you might be able to find as many as four or more additional programs available for selec- tion. These so called “sub- channels” might carry a “06.01, 06.02, 06.03, etc.” type station number designation and could be selected by pressing a four digit remote control direct-access channel number entry. The multiplication and diver- sity of sub-channel program- ming is contingent upon the decisions of broadcasters and how the space allocated for high-definition television sig- nals might be used. The con- tent and information available with sub-channels will be an evolving digital issue which could experience redirection on a number of multicasting information technology path- ways. For example, the “squeezing” of numerous Standard Definition digital channels (SDTV) into signal bandwidths could be used rather than dedicating the total signal spectrum to true High Definition (HDTV) broadcasts that would rival the picture resolution and quality of film or cinema. SUBCHANNEL SELECTIONS • Note: Program and System Info or (PSIP) is carried automatically within the digital signal for program broadcasts available in your area. PSIP contains the signal encoding necessary for the reception of digital audio processing, as well as the new Parental Content Advisory system for movies and TV programming.

T he switch to digital pro- gramming won’t happen overnight, but broadcasters are beginning the task of convert- ing equipment and production capabilities to meet the FCC’s rules for signal format and launch of digital TV. The first step for the networks will be to supply their affiliates with one satellite program feed for continuing NTSC service (at least thru the year 2006), and another feed for a single chan- nel of HDTV (or SDTV format channels). ABC, CBS, NBC, and PBS networks are all attempting to broadcast some HDTV programming beginning in the fall of 1998 (see the digi- tal InfOrmation section to the right for specific plans and details), but much in the way of new digital broadcast tower con- struction, site zoning and other conversion issues will need to be resolved in order for the broad- casts to begin in earnest. In the beginning local stations can offer different program- ming on their allotted digital channel space, but as time pass- es the percentage of NTSC pro- grams that must be converted to digital “simulcast” broadcasts will increase (in order to meet specified conversion schedule requirements.) The Cable TV industry’s stan- dard for the use and carrying of digital broadcasts, which has a different frequency modulation than cable signals, is unresolved (as of the date of this publica- tion.) Although some cable operators promise that digital set-top boxes or decoders will be available to pass HDTV signals to digital TV sets, no official “must carry” design for the interfacing of cable TV pro- gramming and digital TV tech- nologies has been agreed upon. Even without firm program launch dates or established guidelines, digital cable decoder equipment and program offer- ing plans (by such cable pro- gram providers as HBO, Turner Broadcasting and the Discovery Channel) are all underway for the interconnection of cable TV and the arrival of HDTV. It may not have immediate solutions at the outset, but market and industry demands should speed cable operators to provide for the HDTV signal to make it into the cable supplied home. Direct-broadcast satellite system (DSS) providers (such as Direc Tv, Unity Motion, Dish Network, etc.) have also announced plans to deliver HDTV to its customer base in the spring of 1999. DSS sub- scribers will likely need upgrad- ed dish and satellite receiver designed equipment to complete their digital reception package, but a number of providers are working on both off-the-air sig- nal and direct satellite feed solu- tions. PROGRAM AVAILABILITY DTV TIMETABLE While they may dif- fer on the choice of digital formats (1080i, 720p, 480i, etc.) the netw orks broadcast plans center mainly on select primetime * program viewing. Because of the production tech- niques and equip- ment upgrades necessary for digi- tal broadcasts the telecasting of sports or other live events will not become available until audience view - ership can justify costs. Some initial net- w ork plans for digi- tal broadcasts: ABC- Wonderful W orld of Disney (in 720p format); to phase in other HDTV broadcasts later. CBS- proposed to send five hours of 1080i programming per week NBC- to begin shooting The Tonight Show with Jay Leno in HDTV beginning in 1999; also plans to show other primetime show s in HDTV Fox to distribute some portion of its schedule in 720p HDTV. *Outside of the primetime slot for netw ork digital show s local sta- tions can provide different program- ming on their digital broadcast channel. They are free to convert current NTSC programming into digital SDTV or even upgrade their signal to true HDTV. ABC, NBC and Fox are advising affili- ates to use 480p for the majority of its broadcast day, while CBS recom- mends its stations use the 480i for- mat. digital 1nf0rmation TOP TEN MARKETS (30% OF US HOUSEHOLDS) TOP 30 MARKETS (50% OF US HOUSEHOLDS • Baltimore • Charlotte • Cincinnati • Cleveland • Denver • Hartford/New Haven • Houston • Indianapolis • Miami • Minneapolis/St. Paul • Orlando • Phoenix • Pittsburgh • Portland • Raleigh/Durham • Sacramento • San Diego • Seattle/Tacoma • St. Louis • Tampa/St. Petersburg • By November 1999 • By November 1998 (Voluntary) • By May 1999 (Mandatory) • Atlanta • Boston • Chicago • Dallas • Detroit • Los Angeles • New York • Philadelphia • San Francisco • Washington, D.C. • High Definition Television (HDTV) is approxi- mately twice the vertical and horizontal resolu- tion of today’s NTSC TV. Because of the extra width (16:9) format of HDTV the picture con- tains about five times as much information (or pixels) as conventional TV. HDTV also includes 5.1 channels of Dolby Digital surround sound to be broadcast through two front speakers; one center speaker; two rear back speakers; and a separate bass channel or subwoofer signal. • HDTV refers to the product/system with the fol- lowing minimum performance specs: - Resolution: vertical display resolution of 720P, 1080I, or higher - Aspect Ratio: capable of displaying 16:9 for- mat images at the minimum resolution levels - Audio: receives, reproduces, and/or outputs Dolby digital audio - Receiver: receives all ATSC (Table 3) formats • Standard Definition Television (SDTV) offers about the same picture resolution as today’s NTSC TV, but the picture quality is improved because of the lack of snow and ghosts that accompany normal NTSC over-the-air broad- casting. Multiple channels are possible with SDTV since the 6-MHz signal space allotted for digital broadcasts can be used for other types of less data filled format programming. • Standard Definition Television (SDTV) refers to the product/system with the following perfor- mance attributes: - Resolution: display resolution lower than that of HDTV - Aspect Ratio: none specified - Audio: produces useable audio - Receiver: receives all ATSC (Table 3) formats and produces a useable picture all other commercial stations must construct digital facilities by May 2002 (non-commercial stations, such as PBS affiliates, by May 2003) Digital Television Format/Name Screen/Image Aspect Ratio (width to height) Horizontal Resolution (pixels across screen width) Vertical Resolution (Viewable Scan Lines) High Definition TV HDTV 1080P/1080I High Definition TV HDTV 720P/720I Total Pixels (transmitted per video frame*) Standard Definition TV (SDTV)525P/525I 1920 16:9 2,073,600 16:9 4:3 - 16:9 Standard Definition TV (SDTV) ADVANCED TELEVISION SYSTEM COMMITTEE FORMATS PROGRESSIVE (P) AND INTERLACE (I) SCAN • Progressive and Interlace refer to the method in which the video from a picture telecast is scanned or displayed on the TV screen. - Interlace scans or paints half the vertical lines for the picture on the screen every 1/60 of a second. Then the rest of the pic- ture is filled in between the lines of the first half on a followup scan. The speed of this process is so fast that it appears to the eye as being one complete pic- ture. Due to the amount of infor- mation contained in a 1080-line HD picture, interlace is needed to fit the format into the allotted 6MHz channel space. - Progressive scans or paints the entire video picture one line after another. Used with today’s computer monitors this progres- sive process can eliminate some of the picture artifacts found with interlace scan, but does require a larger bandwidth in order to deliver programs at the same frame rate. 4:3 1280 704 640 1080 720 480 480 921,600 337,920 307,200 8 FREQUENTLY ASKED DTV QUESTIONS Q: What are the goals of DTV? A: In the United States the commit- ment for free and local digital broadcasts is a main standard for the new ATSC system. The reception and interaction of local terrestrial broadcasting for DTV programming is to remain the same regardless of the region or area of the country in which you reside. Q: How long will the transition to DTV take? A: The move to digital program- ming will shift from initial select program offerings; to increased simulcast availability; to the ulti- mate return of analog NTSC broad- cast channels to the federal govern- ment in 2006. The NTSC and ATSC systems will coexist for years to come (with possible date extensions provided for the return of NTSC system channels if needed.) Products such as the HD6400W DPTV are uniquely positioned with operation capability matched for both the NTSC and ATSC systems. Q: What’s in the future for DTV? A: Because of the computer, multi- media, and broadcast services involved in setting ATSC and signal compression standards, DTV picture formats can be universally adopted not only for TV broadcasts but also for computer and other interrelated web and network service purposes. Digital Television (DTV) is the umbrella term used to describe the new digital television system adopt- ed by the FCC. DTV is an open standard with few specific format rules for the implementation of HDTV/SDTV/and a host of potential data broadcast applications. Although there are certain guidelines for frequency/bit rates/transmission power/etc. the FCC has taken the position that the marketplace should decide or dictate what formats will best serve the public. The interlace scan process was first used with NTSC broadcasts to conserve video bandwidth space. With certain scenes or video material the interlace process can cause image blurring or other visual screen artifacts.
