Reviewed By Our Editors
Now that the format war is over and you don't have to worry about which movies are going to be distributed on which standard, it might be time to buy a Blu-ray player. If you've never seen Full HD or 1080p on an HDTV set you are missing out on a viewing experience. With the Sylvania NB501SL9 Blu-ray DVD Player, you will enjoy features that enhance viewing experience.
With its HDMI connection, the Sylvania NB501SL9 Blu-ray DVD Player is able to deliver progressive color in all modes and reduces the posterization effect of the playback image plus exceptional Home-Theater Sound when connected to an optional Surround Audio system.
Blu-ray Discs offers 1080p video resolution—HDTV video quality that far surpasses any other medium or broadcast format available today. With a resolution of up to 1920x1080 and up to 54 Mbps bandwidth (roughly double that of a normal HDTV broadcast), no other format can match the video quality of a Blu-ray Disc. Furthermore, due to the overwhelming capacity of a Blu-ray Disc, no tight compression algorithms that may alter the picture quality are required, as with other formats that offer less recording space.
This Blu-ray player fully supports the 1080p standard. 1080p refers to the resolution of the picture with progressive (p), multiple full frames, producing an image that appears more like film. With this maximum picture and video resolutions, the device provides pristine picture quality.
The Sylvania NB501SL9 Blu-ray DVD Player’s support for multi-channel surround sound makes you feel that you are really there. Listen to the rich multi-channel surround sound that compatibility with Dolby TrueHD brings. Dolby TrueHD is Dolby’s next-generation lossless technology developed for high-definition disc-based media. Dolby TrueHD delivers tantalizing sound that is bit-for-bit identical to the studio master, unlocking true high-definition entertainment. When coupled with high-definition video, Dolby TrueHD offers an unprecedented home theater experience that lets you enjoy sound as stunning as the high-definition picture. Also, an alternative and competing format to Dolby Digital is the 5.1-channel surround sound format with DTS Digital. This technology is likely similar to Dolby Digital. It is available in movie theaters, and as an optional soundtrack on some DVD movies for home theater viewing. Using these two surround sound technologies, you will experience theater-like audio.
The Sylvania NB501SL9 Blu-ay DVD Player boasts backwards compatibility with your current DVDs, plus they'll look better than ever with up-conversion. The full backwards compatibility with DVDs ensures that you can continue to enjoy your current movie collection. Additionally, you can view pictures saved as JPEG. Furthermore, your current DVD will look better than before because of video up-conversion. Video up-conversion enhances picture quality of standard DVDs.
The Sylvania NB501SL9 Blu-rRay DVD Player also features Picture-In-Picture capabilities. Some Blu-ray discs have the PIP (picture-in-picture) function which enables you to display the secondary video in a smaller window within the primary video; allows you to see the shots the director saw before special effects came into play, to view the sketches that became the sets, or to view the faces of the commentators as they goof on their faulty stunts, all juxtaposed with the final film.
Experience the Blu-ray difference with the Sylvania NB501SL9. Watch your favorite DVDs and Blu-ray discs, listen to CDs or even view pictures from an SD memory card. This player also outputs a Full 1080/24p True Cinema picture, and upscales your existing DVD collection to 1080p when using an HDMI connection.

The Sylvania Blu-Ray player puts out a beautiful and detailed picture with Blu-Ray material. Because it upconverts normal DVD's to as high as 1080p when using the HDMI output, the normal DVD experience is also greatly enhanced with the output automatically maximized for your screen and with better picture quality. |

What You Should Know
|
| What Is
High Definition And How Is It Different From Standard Definition?
High Definition or "HD" is a
technological leap forward from standard definition, with up to 6x the
picture resolution, so that what you see is sharper and more realistic. Regular TVs and the TV channels you watch
at home are typically in standard definition (unless you watch HD channels).
DVD are also in standard definition. Standard definition (480i & 480p)
is lower quality than high definition. Many older TV sets are standard
def, and can only show standard def content (programming). Many new
TVs are called High Definition TVs (HDTV). They are capable of showing
high def content in: 720p, 1080i, and 1080p, all high definition
formats, but 1080p provides the highest picture quality of them all.

How To Protect Your HDTV And Make It All
Work!
You've bought your ideal television or home
theater, but have you considered how you will protect it, or make it all
work together? It's not as complex as it might seem, but it is
important to consider, since devices may work differently, and have
incompatible modes. Plus after investing in your hardware, bad things
can happen to damage them.
- MOST IMPORTANT: SURGE
PROTECTION
 If you have a
computer, you know all about surge suppressors and battery back-up UPS
devices. But do you have a UPS for your HDTV and Home Theater
system? HDTVs and Home Theater systems are just as susceptible to
surge and power damage as computers, so it is critical you add a very good
surge suppressor or UPS to your setup at once! Plus if you have a UPS, you'll be able to watch TV or listen to music if the power goes off! (for as long as the battery lasts of course!)
Click Here for Power Protection products.
- CONTROLLING IT ALL: ADVANCED
REMOTE CONTROLS
 Almost
every device you have came with a remote control, some even are called
Universal Remote Controls. But every device, HDTV, or Home Theater
component has special features and functions, not supported by the generic
Universal Remotes, especially if you want "One Button" control of several
devices at once. For these you need Advanced Remote Controls, that
not only control everything, but reduce it all down to One Button tasks
that even a Cave Man could operate!
Click Here for Advanced Remote Controls.
- GOT HELP? GET AN
INSTALLATION & SETUP SERVICE
 With some of
today's HDTV and Home Theater systems, you may want to consider getting
expert help from certified technicians that can quickly install your HDTV
on your wall, hide the cables and wires, balance the display settings and
the 7.1 surround sound, for the maximum in sound and picture quality.
You can still tell your friends and family that you did it, it will just be our
secret!

available when YOU want!
- GET A GUARANTEED
BUYBACK FOR YOUR HDTV
 Another way to
protect your investment, given the changing pace of technology, is to add a
Guaranteed Buyback to your HDTV purchase. This will guaranty the
trade-in value of your HDTV a year or two in the future, when you will be
ready to upgrade to the latest technology.
