DESC: From its classy black-and-silver cabinet to its upgraded performance, features and connectivity, the 34 34HFX84 belongs in Toshibas top-of-the-line Cinema Series. This sleek model houses a 16:9 version of the FST PURE® flat picture tube -- Toshibas best. Its designed for optimum viewing of DVDs and High-Definition TV. (HDTV reception requires connecting a separate HDTV tuner.) Conventional video sources (like antenna, cable, VCR, etc.) are upconverted to 1080i by Toshibas CrystalScan HDSC circuitry. Of course, you wont see the depth and dimensionality of true 1080i HDTV programs, but you will enjoy a cleaner, more natural image. To maximize the smoother look of progressive-scan video sources (like a progressive-scan DVD player), you can choose 540p instead of 1080i via the on-screen menu. The result is an effortlessly filmlike image.
