COSTA MESA, CA—V, Inc., one of the industry's fastest growing makers  of consumer digital display products, today announced the launch of its new BRAVO D2 DVD scaling DVI media player and BRAVO HD1 High-Definition receiver.  

The BRAVO D2 is  an update from the multi-award-winning BRAVO D1 which made its entrance last  year as the first DVD player to ship with scaled DVI output and MPEG-4 playback.  The BRAVO D2's DVI output offers a direct digital video signal from DVD straight  to display, bypassing analog conversion. The result is a pure picture  free from traditional digital-to-analog (D/A) conversion artifacts. The BRAVO  D2's scaler will output video in DVI or component video formats in HD resolutions  of 480p, 1080i*, and 720p* as well as advanced DVI custom settings.

The BRAVO D2 updates  the D1 with control of DVI color, brightness and contrast levels, improved analog  video output and integrated screen saver functionality to help protect the long  term performance of today's flat panel displays. A new remote control and redesigned  titanium silver-finished enclosure complete the product's upgrade.

Additional  BRAVO D2 features include Picture ZOOM 1 & 2, MPEG-4, JPEG, DVD-R/+R CD, CD-R/RW,  and Kodak Picture CD playback as well as PCM, DTS and Dolby® Digital audio  pass-through on Toslink or coaxial digital outputs.
