The Denon DVD-3800BDCI supports bit stream output for Blu-ray disc lossless audio formats Dolby TrueHD and Dolby Digital Plus, as well as for DTS-HD Audio Master and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio. The new Denon DVD-3800BDCI is also capable of 8-channel analogue audio output, the maximum number of audio channels possible with Blu-ray discs. The beautiful sound quality of Denon Blu-ray players can be fully enjoyed even with A/V receivers that do not have an HD audio format decoder
The Denon DVD-3800BDCI inherits various circuits for high picture quality from the high-end DVD-5910CI DVD player that has been widely praised. That circuitry employs an I/P (Interlaced/Progressive) converter - also vital for audio circuitry - and a REALTA scaler that converts the SD video images of DVD to high-definition 1080p images. High conversion performance is made possible by 10-bit processing, and motion detection is dramatically improved as well. Regularity at the pixel level not only for the 3:2 pattern of film sources but also for other patterns is accurately detected at high speed for highly precise I/P conversion. Even when a source contains both Video mode and Film mode material, each mode is accurately detected and processed at high speed, enabling high-quality Progressive playback of a variety of DVD discs. The REALTA also functions as a high-performance scaler that makes 1080p HDMI output possible. 10-bit processing enables high-precision scaling, and the most appropriate conversion for the output resolution is performed even when video signals recorded on a DVD using color difference signals are output in RGB format. As a component dedicated to playback, the sole job of the Denon DVD-3800BDCI is to ensure that A/V enthusiasts can enjoy a rich variety of DVDs in superior picture quality.
The Denon DVD-3800BDCI is endowed with Denon's original D.P.I.C. enhancer technology to perform high-definition video image correction. 10-bit processing is used to detect and correct curved lines with greater precision. The new enhancement processing algorithm considers the effects of peripheral pixels in addition to the target pixels, sampling and analyzing video data of a total of 9 pixels. Pixels in horizontal, vertical, and diagonal directions are detected and processed in detail. Brightness and Colour signals are also processed by the same algorithm which then suppresses ringing noise that easily occurs during enhancement and performs other processes to effectively produce a vivid, natural picture.
Besides the D.P.I.C. functions, picture quality can be adjusted over a wide range of elements including not only Contrast and Sharpness but also White level, Chroma level, Noise Reduction settings, and Gamma
The Dynamic Discrete Surround Circuit (D.D.S.C.) - Digital, Denon's high-quality sound reproduction circuit, forms the core of technology designed to realize Denon's ideal of reproducing audio content so that it sounds exactly the way the producer intended it to. The newly-developed D.D.S.C.-HD circuit is a revised version designed to support the latest HD audio formats.
"AL24 Processing Plus" is technology that expands effective PCM signals originally in 16-bit or 20-bit form to 24-bit data for all channels. In the case of the DVD-3800BDCI, the critically-acclaimed "Advanced AL24 Processing," from Denon's "DVD-5910CI", is used in addition to AL24 Processing Plus specifically for 2-channel stereo output. This technology uses a unique Denon-developed algorithm to interpolate up-sampling data along the time axis without losing any original data to produce a more natural sound.
The circuitry has been separated into three independent blocks within the chassis. The video and audio circuits have of course been separated, and to thoroughly eliminate signal degradation caused by interference between circuits, each circuit has been mounted on its own board. In addition, the top cover features a two-layered construction and the chassis bottom is constructed of three layers to protect the circuits from vibration.
The Denon DVD-3800BDCI features a unique drive mechanism that Denon newly developed for use with Blu-ray discs. To further protect the internal disc space from magnetic influences, dust, and external noise, Denon improved its mechanism unit from previous DVD players by adding a shield to the bottom and top of the unit to create an ideal playback environment for the disc. In addition, Denon incorporated its critically-acclaimed Suppress Vibration Hybrid (S.V.H.) loader constructed with a combination of different materials to ensure stable disc rotation and greater accuracy in reading the disc.
