HDMI™ Output – Simple One Cable Connection |
| A one cable connection carries complete digital audio and video connection between your HDTV and the BD-HP20 player for the best high definition video and the highest fidelity audio in home theater today. Blu-ray Disc™ technology brings the multiplex experience right to your home. | |
|
Full HD Resolution – An Amazing Home Theater Experience in the Comfort of your Home |
| The Blu-ray Disc™ format has full 1080P resolution capability – that's the maximum picture resolution available today. 1080P = 1,080 lines of vertical resolution, progressively scanned. | |
|
High Fidelity Audio – Real Life-Like Sound |
| Blu-ray technology lets you take advantage of the latest surround sound formats such as Dolby® TrueHD. This means you will enjoy high quality lossless 7.1 Channel digital surround (48KHz only ) that is bit for bit the equivalent of a master recording. | |
|
HDMI™ Up-Scaling – Backwards Compatible |
| Even your existing standard definition DVD library can look better than ever because Blu-ray Disc™ players are backwards compatible with your DVDs. By optimizing standard DVD playback signals to 1080P (when displayed on a 1080P capable HDTV with HDMI™ technology), the BD-HP20 can deliver more picture and sound quality. | |
|
AQUOS LINK Function – Seamless Operation among Sharp Audio Video Products with One Remote Control |
| Why use two remotes when you can use one? The AQUOS LINK function allows you to control both your AQUOS LCD TV and your AQUOS Blu-ray Disc™ player together. When you connect your AQUOS LCD TV to the Blu-ray Disc™ player via an HDMI connection, you will have seamless interoperability between your AQUOS LCD TV and BD-HP20 Blu-ray Disc™ player. | |

Quick Start – Enjoy Movie Content Quickly without Delay |
| A proprietary Sharp technology allows you to enjoy viewing high definition content on your big screen quicker than most other Blu-ray Disc™ players. Unlike many other Blu-ray Disc™ players, the BD-HP20 has an impressive startup time allowing you to begin watching your movies in approximately 10 seconds1. | |
