Definition doesn get any higher than 1080p. (At least until the next step in the evolution of electronics.) The Samsung BDP1400 lets you enjoy the highest definition possible today. With Blu-ray playback at native HD resolutions of 1080p, 1080i, and 720p, you e treated to amazingly crisp, rich, and colorful video as well as full, clear surround sound. The BDP1400 is backward compatible, so your collection of CDs and DVDs will still play, regardless of the format. HDMI connections let you run your high definition content from the BDP1400 to your TV with a single cable.   Samsungs BDP1400 player includes various user interface menus and subtitle functions to allow consumers to easily discover and search for detailed content regarding the video. The full-color, high definition animated menu and subtitle effects allow you to incorporate your own personal creative touch. With the easy top menu, you change the font and color of subtitles and menu titles as well as the background color and menu graphics to fit your individual style. The Pop-up menu will provide information which is already stored in the contents. You can get more detailed information about the subject of the video while you watch it.   The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) connection on the BDP1400 transfers high definition (1080i/720p/1080p) video and audio from your DVD or BD to your TV, home theater, or other digital A/V components. Simply connect your BDP1400 to your home theater system with a single HDMI cable for the highest quality pictures and sound. The HDMI connection is also CEC enabled, which means that if you have other HDMI CEC components (like your television and receiver), youll be able to control all your components with one-touch operation. The CEC allows the components to recognize and communicate with each other in a way that allows you to push a single button on the remote and get the appropriate response from your theater system.
