The only way to really appreciate the advanced technology that's gone into your Home Cinema TV is by watching DVD, the entertainment format that allows you to see and hear a film exactly as the director intended. Philips has a range of DVD products, which allow you to complete your Home Cinema. Philips DVDs have great picture and sound quality, but there's more: you can play audio CDs on these DVDs. Dual Focus lasers read audio and video information separately, ensuring optimum performance. Philips brings you many useful features - ideal for a busy family's viewing needs. It's the details that make Philips stand out from the rest. The Philips DVD 704AT is the picture and sound quality for the optimal Home Cinema enjoyment. Philips DVD players feature a Dual Laser Drive. The individual lasers are optimized for each wavelength and focus of both DVD and CD. This guarantees the best performance for DVD and CD discs including CD-R and CD RW. With the DVD 704AT you can zoom while playing or while it's perfectly still. Go directly to any title, chapter, or track on a DVD disc using fast, simple onscreen menus and easy-to-follow onscreen prompts. Using the onscreen menu, simply program the start and stop positions of whatever segments you want to repeat, regardless of length. DVD video puts the control in your hands, making you the director.
