For videophiles, equipment reviewers and consumer electronics professionals, the launch of a new , top-of-the-line Sony DVD player is always an occasion. In 1997, Sony’ s original DVP-S7000 was acclaimed as the “Reference Standard.” In 1998, the second-generation DVP-S7700 took DVD playback to a new level of accuracy . Now the Sony DVP- S9000[...]

4 In 1997, Sony’ s original DVP-S7000 helped launch the DVD- V ideo format and was quickly acclaimed as the “Reference Standard.” In 1998, the second-generation DVP-S7700 took DVD playback to a new level of accuracy . Of course, both players were designed to maximize performance with the huge universe of televisions using 525-line interlace s[...]

5 DV D T echnical Notes V ideo Of course, the choice of film or video ultimately depends on individual production budgets and artistic intent. And important variations occur . A growing number of theatrical releases are shot on video. And Sony’ s latest HDCAM ® high definition video equipment can capture images at 24 frames per second progressiv[...]

6 1. High accuracy film detection with FFRF . 2. Dedicated microprocessor for motion detecting. 3. Separate 3-2 reverse conversion algorithms for video and film- originated DVDs. 4. Full 3-2 reverse conversion. T ogether, these advances enable the Sony DVP-S9000ES to deliver more consistent, more satisfying, more seamless 525P output with a wider v[...]

7 DV D T echnical Notes V ideo One potential way to cut corners in 525P output is to adopt relatively inexpensive frame memory . However, simple frame memory systems can expose the signal to motion blur on two out of every five frames. This becomes clear when we review the 3- 2 pulldown process. In simple frame memory reverse conversion, the player[...]

8 Sony’ s Motion Adaptive Field Noise Reduction uses new technology to overcome the old compromises. Thanks to the new circuit, the DVP-S9000ES can achieve very high signal-to- noise ratio, very high resolution and very accurate motion — all at the same time! T o overcome motion artifacts, the Sony design actively analyzes the fields for moveme[...]

Across the bottom are sample readings. The first is a step characteristic of block noise, which gets corrected to a gradual slope. In the center are random v[...]

10 this, DVD players have offered a choice between frame pause or field pause. Frame pause maximizes vertical resolution, but blurs whatever motion may be present in the image. Field pause gets rid of motion blur , but sacrifices vertical resolution, just like a VCR. Now with the Clear Frame system of Sony’ s DVP-S9000ES, you no longer need to ch[...]

11 DV D T echnical Notes V ideo Many of the video equalizer adjustments exist to tailor perform- ance for individual DVDs. That’ s why the DVP-S9000ES can store your favorite settings for instant recall. Custom Memory lets you store five standard settings for different movie studios, different DVD genres or dif ferent types of display . Playback [...]

12 More than a labor of technology , the DVP-S9000ES represents the enthusiasm that Sony engineers share with high-end videophiles. That’ s why the player incorporates a variety of carefully selected resistors, inductors, semiconductors and capacitors. Each plays a specific role in maximizing video performance. • Low Distortion Film Capacitors.[...]

13 DV D T echnical Notes Audio The DVP-S9000ES is more than just a cutting edge Sony DVD-V ideo player . It’s a Sony high fidelity component of the first order . This is the very first DVD player to be part of Sony’ s acclaimed ES Series, the Elevated Standard in audio/video. It incorporates circuits, topology and features carefully designed to[...]

14 The DSD analog-to-digital converter produces a one-bit pulse train that appears remarkably analog. In this manner , DSD encoding combines the advantages of digital recording with the well-regarded characteristics of analog sound. For recording artists, producers and engineers, DS D technology is a priceless new tool. For audiophiles, it’ s a m[...]

15 DV D T echnical Notes Audio Organizing the data into left and right pulse streams is the job of the DSD decoder . A Sony-built LSI, the DSD decoder first reads the invisible watermark — a key anti-piracy feature — and then decodes the incoming data. Data on the disc originate as alternating bursts of left-channel and right-channel informatio[...]

16 purity . A straight path carries the signal directly from the D/A converter input to the output terminals on the back panel. As an added precaution, extra-thick low-impedance jumper cables eliminate patterning between the main ground of the audio board and the main ground of the digital block. Power transformer cores and windings can vibrate and[...]

17 DV D T echnical Notes Construction The same insistence on high-performance parts that marks the video section of the DVP-S9000ES can be found throughout the audio section, as befits a fully qualified member of Sony’ s ES Series. The parts are selected after under going exhaustive testing. For example, the audio circuit board is a glass epoxy d[...]

18 DV D T echnical Notes For further protection, the mechanical deck is insulated from the DVP-S9000ES main chassis via dedicated supports. A new Digital Signal Processor (DSP) handles 40 million instructions per second (40 MIPS). The result is highly precise control of the optical pickup, for supremely accurate readout of the high-density DVD and [...]
