Sony BDP-CX960 Overview
How would you like to be able to put every single one of your CD's,
DVDs and Blu-ray discs into a single player that automatically sorts them by
genre and displays jacket art, artists, producers, directors and more? With
the Sony BDP-CX960 400 Disc Blu-ray/DVD/CD Mega Changer you
can.
It uses your high-speed Internet connection to connect to the
Gracenote server and download disc "metadata" (information about the
disc).
The BDP-CX960's 400 disc slots allow you to keep and play your
entire collection in one convenient spot. (If you have more than 400 discs buy
two—you can afford it!) But there's also a "Rental Disc" slot that
allows you to play a single disc without adding it to your collection.
Sony has dubbed the BDP-CX960 a "Mega Changer" but beyond
the convenience of keeping your entire entertainment library in one place
there's an honest to goodness fully featured Blu-ray disc, DVD and CD player in
there. For instance, this player features both the popular Bonus View and
BD-Live features. Bonus View is to Blu-ray discs sort of like the commentary
track is on some DVDs. Except that the information (interviews, commentary and
so on) appears in an onscreen window with the push of a button.
For BD-Live you need a USB thumb drive with 1 GB of free space and
your Internet connection. When you play a BD-ROM (another name for Blu-ray
disc) that is BD-Live compatible it can connect via the Internet to provide
content like streaming video, trailers, movie-based games, shorts and more.
Blu-ray discs display such great video you want to make sure your
player can also provide great audio. The audio tracks on virtually every
Blu-ray disc (and many DVDs) are encoded with one or more multi-channel audio
codecs (coder-decoders) like Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. This player
includes these and many others. Typically they provide 5.1 or 7.1 channel
surround sound that works almost as well with just two speakers as they do with
the full complement of speakers required. You find yourself in an immersive,
expansive sound field that has to heard to be believed.
Even your DVDs will look better on the BDP-CX960. Its Precision
Cinema HD Upscale displays them at near HD quality. This is the one player you
need if you want to get the very best from your entire entertainment collection.
And it may even help you buy more discs. It meets or exceeds all Energy Star
3.0 standards. So you should save a little bit on your electric bill every
month.
Stores and Plays 400 Discs
The BDP-CX960 Blu-ray disc Mega Changer can store and play 400 Blu-ray
disc movies, DVDs and CDs, allowing you to free up valuable shelf space and
relocate all your discs to one convenient, easy-to-access location.
Displays Jacket Art, Title, and More
The BDP-CX960 can take advantage of your Internet connection to
download movie data such as jacket art, title, genre and cast information from
the Gracenote service, and display it in an intuitive, easy-to-navigate
onscreen display.
Sort and Group Your Discs
Enjoy quick and easy navigation of your Blu-ray disc movies, DVDs and
CDs with the ability to search and sort by title, genre, director, cast, and
more from your remote control.
Fully-Featured Blu-ray Disc Player
In addition to storing and playing up to 400 discs, the BDP-CX960
offers all the capabilities of a fully-featured Blu-ray disc player, including
Full HD 1080p video output, HD audio support, BD-Live access (BD-Live enabled
Blu-ray Disc, USB flash memory, and Internet connection are required), and the
ability to upscale standard DVDs to near HD quality over an HDMI connection.
Rental Slot For Quick Loading a Single Disc
Quickly insert and start watching a movie right away with the
dedicated rental slot. In addition, a button on the player gives you one-touch
access to the rental slot for quick loading and ejecting.
Full HD 1080p Video Output
Full HD 1080p video output provides high-resolution HD images so
you can take full advantage of your HDTV and the detail of Blu-ray Disc video
content. Blu-ray Disc, DVD and CD compatibility lets you play your favorite
Blu-ray disc movies, DVDs, and audio CDs.
BD-Live Technology
BD-Live technology brings you the next generation of interactivity,
allowing you to download and stream bonus content, such as additional scenes,
shorts, trailers, movie-based games, and more. (BD-Live enabled Blu-ray Disc,
USB flash memory, and Internet connection are required.)
Bonus View
The Bonus View feature provides "picture-in-picture"
capability with select Blu-ray titles—useful for viewing director or actor
commentary while the movie plays.
Built-in Ethernet Port
An Ethernet port (RJ45 jack) provides connectivity to a home
broadband connection for network updates, disc metadata downloads, and BD-Live
access.
Built-in USB Port
A built-in USB port enables you to connect a portable USB storage
device (sold separately) for additional storage capacity and lets you take
advantage of specially created content from BD-Live-compatible Blu-ray discs.
Support for Enhanced Audio Formats
The BDP-CX960 supports both internal decoding and bitstream output
of enhanced audio codecs, including Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. These
high definition audio formats delivers "lossless" surround sound with
7.1 channels of discrete audio that's nearly identical to the master studio
recording, allowing you to enjoy uncompromised sound from the comfort of your
living room.
DVD Upscaling via HDMI
DVD upscaling via HDMI makes your existing standard DVDs look
better on your HDTV by upscaling them to near HD quality via an HDMI
connection.
Product Updates
Product software upgrades can be easily downloaded and installed on
the BDP-CX960 through your Internet connection.
BRAVIA Sync
BRAVIA Sync capability utilizes the HDMI CEC function to easily
turn on and control your compatible HDMI-connected components via a single
remote.
24p True Cinema
24p True Cinema capable lets you watch films at their intended 24
fps (frames per second)—the way movies are shot and mastered—so you can enjoy
high cinematic picture quality.
Precision Cinema HD Upscale
Precision Cinema HD upscale uses advanced conversion and processing
to detect image changes at the pixel level, rather than at the level of whole
scan lines. Additionally, separate algorithms are used to process the moving
and still parts of an image, resulting in sharp backgrounds with moving objects
that are free from motion artifacts.
Xross Media Bar
The Xross media bar user interface makes it simple and intuitive to
browse and search for movies, as well as navigate menus, controls, and user
settings.
