MPEG-4 TECHnoLoGy
LG’s new LC5 series flat-panel HDTV LCDs incorporate the next-
generation digital video compression technology, MPEG-4 (Moving
Picture Experts Group) H.264, that enhances performance and sim-
plicity for venues delivering satellite high-definition programming. This
technology is the standard for compatibility with the more than 150
national HD channels and 1,500 local broadcast HD and digital chan-
nels, which are scheduled to launch on DIRECTV in 2007.
The advanced coding system enables delivery of many more HD chan-
nels in the same frequency bandwidth as before. Integrated MPEG-4
HDTVs support the industry’s deployment of DIRECTV-delivered HD
content, while setting the stage for the longer-term implementation
of MPEG-4 by other satellite operators, cable companies, telcos and
broadcasters. Since MPEG-4 technology is built-in to these sets, an
external box is not required to be used with HD content providers
who adapt to using this new technology.
Pro:IDIoM

DIGITAL rIGHTS MAnAGEMEnT SySTEM
The Pro:Idiom
™
system’s high-quality security unlocks access to
premium content availability to help assure rapid, broad deployment
of HDTV and other high-value digital content. Pro:Idiom
™
has been
designed specifically for industries that use satellite-delivered pay TV
content or video-on-demand (VOD) services and as such, could result
in lower costs, and reduced maintenance. This system is the only DRM
system embraced by content providers for both of these key program-
ming sources. By using this embedded approach, security is provided
and removes the possibility for “customers” to tamper with or remove
needed components.

rEMoTE LT2002
The LT2002 allows
for custom setup
and programming
information to be
quickly copied from a
“master” LG or Zenith
brand LCD, Plasma,
or CRT TV (with the
MPI
™
input) into an
unlimited number
of identical models. This saves the
installers hours of time duplicating
the hotel TV settings, such as mini-
mum volume, maximum volume, start
up channel, channel mapping, etc.
SUPEr IPS
In Plane Switching
®
(IPS), an exclusive
feature of LG LCD models, reduces
common distortion and blurring
caused by fast motion video and also
provides one of the industry’s widest
viewing angles (up to 178˚).
Retains up to 3
master TVs
The minimum black level of an image is automatically
detected and adjusted according to brightness.
Using the noise filter inside the XD Engine
®
chip, the image
is analyzed for temporal and spatial information to reduce
MPEG noise.
At a blazingly fast 370 million pixels per second, the
processor uses a histogram analyzation tool to clarify
the image data according to signal brightness levels.

takes the low resolution of analog signals to near HD levels
by improving brightness, contrast, detail and enhancing color as well as reducing signal
noise. This total solution results in cinema-like high resolution images.
