MPEG4 SD / HD Terrestrial Receiver

 

 

 

Product description

HD-507 is the only device on the market, which in a small, practical case houses DVB-T receiver and multifunctional multimedia device. The use of this digital receiver is one of the cheapest ways to adapt an older CRT, LCD, or plasma television (if the LCD or plasma TV has only an MPEG-2 tuner) for the new world of digital television using MPEG-4. Even the owners of fully-featured televisions equipped with MPEG-4 tuners may also be interested in such a multifunctional device due to its integrated media player and Personal Video Recorder option (PVR Ready - possibility of recording DVB-T broadcasts on external USB memory). Signal HD-507 can also play pictures, music and videos - including those in high definition.

The biggest practical advantage of the receiver is compact size. The device can be directly plugged into the SCART input of a TV set - it remains virtually invisible to the user. The receiver is also ideal for any LCD/Plasma TV placed on a wall - depending on the TV model , the user can arrange the device so that it fits in between the TV set and wall (adequate ventilation is required). Hidden behind the television, the device receives commands from remote control via IR sensor on a short cable. To work properly, the sensor has to be attached somewhere on the front of the TV set.

The receiver is compatible with the most popular MPEG-4 compression standard and with the earlier version - MPEG-2 - used in some European countries. The device provides excellent image quality both in SD and HD resolution. The USB port (PVR Ready) allows to record the received broadcasts on external data storage device, such as a USB hard drive or a flash drive.

HDMI output provides signal of the highest quality, suitable for HD broadcasts. Using this connection, the receiver can be plugged into the SCART socket or not. With the simultaneous use of both types of connections, HDMI has priority.

Supported file formats

An interesting feature is the possibility of playing files compliant with open standard Matroska (MKV). This format allows compression and recording of High Definition channels. It is characterized by good video quality and comparatively low memory consumption.
