The unit features Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD High Resolution and DTS-HD Master Audio. It also features optimised graphical user interface for straightforward operation, and with HDMI allows for multimedia data transfer. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is an industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface that enables users to obtain clear, all-digital audio and video via a single cable. HDMI provides an interface between any audio or video source, such as a set-top box, a DVD player, an A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor, such as a digital television (DTV), over a single cable. HDMI supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel digital audio on a single cable) and component video connections, for playback on a connected High Definition Television. It also supports connectivity KURO LINK that allows users to utilise the KURO flat screen TV remote control for the DV-310-K as well. The 108 MHz video signal D/A converter overcomes degradation of Y (luminance) and C (chrominance) colour signals which distorts picture colour on playback when digital 8-bit DVD-Video data is converted to analogue data by upgrading the 8-bit Y/C signal data to 10-bit data and maintain data integrity and reproduce images that are truer to the DVD source. This unit also features PureCinema mode which is for typical film-sourced DVD-Video playback. PureCinema automatically detects film-based sources, originally encoded at 24 frames / second. The digital image processing will detect if individual interlaced fields are coming from the same original film frame and restore the image frame exactly as created for projection in the movie theatre. The video feature of this player allows users to adjust settings from the video adjust screen through various settings that affect how the picture is presented. Users can adjust the following picture quality settings like Sharpness - Adjusts the sharpness of edges in the picture (Fine, Standard, Soft); Brightness - Adjusts the overall brightness (-20 to +20); Contrast - Adjusts the contrast between light and dark (-16 to +16); Gamma - Adjusts the ‘warmth’ of the picture (High, Medium, Low, Off); Hue - Adjusts the red/green balance (Green 9 to Red 9) and Chroma Level - Adjusts how saturated colors appear (-9 to +9).

    I love the dimensions, sleek look, and incredible video and audio quality this DVD player offers. I'm also a huge fan of the Divx USB connection, which I've been using even more so than the DVD function. All in all, a great buy! Read more

    This review is from: Pioneer DV-310-K - DVD Player With USB Input (Black) (Electronics) Pioneer DV-310-K - DVD Player With USB Input (Black) I bought this dvd player for the USB port that it has built in. I thought it was a very reasonable price and it works great. I just put my shows on to a USB stick and it plays straight away. It saves a lot of time burning things to disk that I am only going to watch once. The design is very sleek and I think it looks very good. The... Read more

    Pioneer has to sumbit a new firmware for this player. Second problem with the fonts in the divx subtitles, the fonts are so small and there's no way you can change it. Read more

    Received this unit today. hooked it up no problem, turned it on and the DVD drive would not open. Being the type of person that I am I decided to open it up and figure out what was wrong. Once I fixed the problem and put it all back together the unit functions as expected. I hate RMA'ing so i'm glad I didn't have to. Over all seems to be an ok unit. Let's hope it stays that way.
