In addition, the G92 incorporates
digital surround decoding to allow the
multichannel analogue and digital outputs
to be used to drive a 5.1 surround
system directly, based on Meridian
DSP Loudspeakers and/or conventional
analogue amps and speakers.
The built-in surround processing system
decodes 5.1 Dolby Digital or DTS
soundtracks from DVD-Video discs, and
Dolby Digital or DTS data streams fed
into the external digital inputs. It will also
synthesise a full surround image from
2-channel soundtracks on audio CDs or
DVD-Video discs, or from the external
two-channel digital or analogue inputs, by
extracting latent surround information in the
recording.
Several DSP presets are provided to
allow you to choose the type of surround
processing used for different sources. For
5.1 audio formats a Discrete or Cinema
DSP preset is selected automatically,
depending on whether the source is
music or a movie. For two-channel audio
formats the DSP preset can usually be
switched between Trifield (Meridian’s
acclaimed three-speaker stereo decode,
recommended for music), Stereo (uses
just the main left and right speakers
and subwoofer if present), or PLII
(recommended for movies), using the DSP
key on the front panel or MSR+.
On the video side, advanced video circuit
designs, matched phase video filters, and
a broadcast-quality video encoder are
employed to deliver low-noise images of
outstanding colour depth and resolution.
Separate ultra-low jitter master video and
audio oscillators allow picture and sound to
be independently optimised, ensuring that
the G92 DVD player delivers breathtakingly
clear pictures.
The G92 includes a unique broadcast-
quality, high-resolution video processor/
scaler which combines both Meridian and
Faroudja Video Optimization technology.
This processor can receive composite,
S-video, and interlaced component video,
and convert between the formats, or to the
HDMI (high-density multimedia interface)
standard, to provide a single video output
for all the video sources in your system. A
bypass function allows progressive or high
definition component video to be routed
directly to the component output only.
The HDMI port also delivers high-resolution
digital audio to the HDMI v1.1 specification,
either up to six channels of PCM at up to
24-bit, 96kHz or a 5.1 bitstream, while
broadcast-quality video circuitry delivers
the most advanced, high-quality video
available today.
The HDMI port supports a wide range of
high quality digital video options including
480p, 576p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p
– the same resolution as the best HD
sources. The analogue component output
is available at 480p and 576p.
The video processor includes picture
controls, available via the MSR+ and front-
panel display. For the internal DVD and
external video inputs you can adjust the
the horizontal/vertical picture position. In
addition, the brightness, contrast, colour,
and hue (NTSC) are adjustable on the
video inputs.
The HDMI output can be connected to a
DVI input if the device supports HDCP
copy protection, using a suitable adaptor
cable.
