Yamaha BD-S2900BL Blu-ray Disc Player 1080p

Make the Most of Blu-ray Discs
Blu-ray Discs are one of the best ways to take advantage of the great entertainment that high-definition video and audio makes possible. Since a single-layer disc holds 25GB of data, a Blu-ray Disc stores five times more data than a standard DVD, providing superb picture resolution and surround sound.

The BD-S2900 offers compatibility with the latest Blu-ray Disc format and the finest audio and video quality, as well as the latest features like Picture-in-Picture (Secondary Video/Audio) and Virtual Package.

Secondary Video (Picture-in-Picture)/Audio
Secondary Video lets you view a smaller picture inside the main picture (with compatible Blu-ray Discs). Secondary Audio lets you hear the smaller picture’s audio as well. Both can be selected from the BD-S2900 remote control.

Virtual Package
This feature lets you combine information from a Blu-ray Disc with local storage information on an SD card to enjoy additional content and services as they become available.

HD Audio Bitstream
The digital audio signals from high bit-rate audio signals (Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD Master Audio and DTS-HD High Resolution Audio) are output directly from the player to the receiver (via an HDMI cable), without conversion to PCM. By using a receiver with HD audio decoders, the sound you hear will be exactly the same as the originally recorded material.

Design Matches Yamaha Receivers
The front panel appearance matches Yamaha’s top-class receivers, so your system will have a neat, uniform look.

RS-232C Interface
By using this interface you can control your player with a touch-screen panel or use a computer for custom configurations.

IR In/Out
These ports make the BD-S2900 easy to integrate into a custom installation for convenient remote control operation.

12-Bit Deep Color
HDMI also supports a technology called Deep Color, which increases the number of bits available for transmission, meaning more colors! In fact, with 12-bit compatibility, the BD-S2900 can provide 4,096 shades of each of the three primary colors. That means 4,0963 for a total of 68.7 billion possible colors, which in practical terms results in much great color fidelity, smooth tonal transitions and ultra-fine gradations between colors. It also enables many times more shades of gray, for higher contrast ratio.

1080p/24fps-Compatible HDMI Output
1080p is the highest level of video resolution, and the BD-S2900 can output these video signals directly to a receiver via the HDMI output. Generally, these signals are sent at 60 frames per second (FPS) but the BD-S2900 can also transmit 24fps signals, which is the same frame rate that movies are shot at. This provides a much sharper picture, with smoother motion.
