Adaptable Programmable Video Processor
PureVideo’s programmable technology adapts to new video
encoding formats as they are developed to provide a future-proof
video solution.
MPEG-2 Decode Acceleration
Allows smooth playback of all MPEG-2 video with minimal CPU
usage—freeing the media center to do other work.
WMV Decode Acceleration
Play videos in Microsoft’s Windows Media Video High Definition
(WMV HD) format without skipping frames or losing video detail.
Advanced Spatial Temporal De-Interlacing
Smoothes video and DVD playback on progressive displays to deliver
a crisp, clear picture that rivals high-end home theater systems.
High-Quality Scaling
Allows for upscaling of a low-resolution video to HDTV resolutions
(up to 1080), while maintaining a clear, clean image. Also allows
for downscaling videos, including high-definition, without experiencing
any annoying flicker , while preserving image detail.
Inverse Telecine (3:2 & 2:2 Pulldown Correction)
Recovers original film format data to provide more accurate
video playback and superior picture quality.
Bad Edit Correction
Detects disruption of the normal 3:2 or 2:2 pulldown cadence
resulting from poor edits made after film has been converted
from 24 to 25 or 30 frames per second video format. Uses advanced
processing techniques to recover the original film content and
display perfect picture detail frame after frame for smooth,
natural looking video.
Video Color Correction
Corrects differences in color characteristics of RGB monitors
and TV monitors through NVIDIA PureVideo’s ProcAmp Color
Controls settings, such as Brightness and Contrast. The display
gamma correction ensures videos are not too dark, overly bright,
or washed out regardless of the video format or display.
LCD Sharpening
Compensates for slower response time by overdriving color signals,
thereby automatically eliminating ghosting effects. LCD displays
can exhibit "ghosting" effects because of the slow
response time of liquid crystals.
Integrated TV Output
Provides world-class TV-out functionality (Component 75ohm BNC
Ports on the Niveus Media Center), up to 1080i resolution.
