P4HD (Pixel Precision Progressive Processing for
HD)
To get the best HD images from a BD-Video disc, you
need a player that renders high-quality progressive images,
expresses motion smoothly, and draws sharp diagonal lines.
The DMP-BD10A’s P4HD processes more than 15 billion
pixels per second and applies the optimum processing to
every pixel in the video data on the disc.
The result is images with exceptional
resolution.

Precise Digital Video
Pixel Precision Progressive Processing
Precise Pixel Generator
BD-Video supports a number of
formats. For example, the highest-quality format (1920 x 1080
pixels) can be encoded at any of four different frame rates - 59.94i,
50i, 23.976p and 24p – and the compression format can be
MPEG2, MPEG4 AVC or VC-1. The BD-Video player must detect
these instantly and perform progressive conversion when
necessary. Both for the de-interlacing and scaling, the DMP-
BD10A’s super-high-speed P4HD generates each pixel correctly
according to information obtained from up to
60 surrounding pixels. Applying progressive processing to huge
amounts of data, it delivers images of striking beauty.
16-Level Motion Detection with
Pixel-Based Motion Adaptive
For
optimum progressive conversion, the
processing must suit the motion of the
image. The super-high-speed P4HD
categorises the image motion of each
pixel into one of 16 levels, from
stationary to super fast. For areas with
stationary images, it applies the
progressive processing best suited to
still images. In other areas it applies
processing that matches the degree of
motion. The results are stunningly
beautiful progressive images with
minimum conversion errors.
Diagonal Processing
The ability to create smooth, sharp diagonal
lines is a key in progressive conversion. The P4HD quickly detects
diagonals and applies correction to the pixels accordingly. In
reproducing the kinds of
geometric patterns often
seen in architecture, for
example, the DMP-BD10A
provides exceptionally
smooth, sharp diagonal
lines whether the image
is still or moving.
3:2/2:2 Pull-Down Progressive Processing
The P4HD instantly
determines whether a source is film or video and optimises the
processing accordingly. Applying 3:2 or 2:2 pull-down with movie
software, it makes images look natural and true to life.
1080p Up-Conversion for All Discs*
The DMP-BD10A
enhances the viewing experience from a variety of sources. When
playing a BD-Video or DVD disc, it up-converts content recorded in
the 480i/p, 576i/p, 720p or 1080i format to 1080p with high
precision. You enjoy superb 1080p-level image quality.
*With HDMI Connection
Natural Analogue Video
26MHz/14bit Video D/A Converter
DMP-BD10A
incorporates a 296MHz, 14bit Video D/A Converter from
Analog Devices Co. Ltd. that provides high-quality 4x
oversampling for 1080i/720p output. NSV (noise shaping
video) processing shifts the noise component to an
unused band to further boost the signal-to-noise ratio.
And finally, we added extremely fine
14bit signal processing that renders
ultra-fine images with smooth
gradation. Thanks to technologies
like these, the DMP-BD10A can
theoretically
reproduce up
to nearly 4400
billion
colours.
AVCHD Playback Capable
DMP-BD10A is capable of playing back video content
recorded on AVCHD format with a HD Video Camera.
Simply take the DVD disc from the HD Video Camera
and insert it in the DMP-BD10A. You can enjoy your
precious memories with outstanding HD-quality images.

of AVCHD format.
