Toshiba today announced the market arrival of the REGZA SV series – the most advanced Toshiba LCD TV model launched into the UK market to date. Aimed at consumers who demand the best in TV technology, the REGZA SV series is the first ever range to combine Toshiba’s Resolution+ technology, Active Vision M200HD picture processing and an LED backlight – delivering extremely high quality images to satisfy even the most demanding of viewers.

Available in 46” and 55” sizes, the new REGZA SV range features a premier version of Toshiba’s new ‘Deep Lagoon’ design theme, which sees the exterior screen sitting flush with the front of the TV frame. The effect is produced by a Full Crystal Panel that sits over the front of the TV, creating a unique design effect while also improving contrast and colour ratios. The frame itself is a stunning gloss black with colour gradation fading to white on the outer extremities to create a tapered effect.

The REGZA SV series is powered by Toshiba’s MetaBrain engine – a single chip solution capable of managing a number of innovative technologies simultaneously, including Resolution+, Active Vision processing and Toshiba’s AutoView feature, which accurately measures room conditions alongside content to provide the best possible picture performance.

Integrated Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) technology allows users to network the SV and pair it with their PC, enabling access to the PCs functions and storage using the TV’s remote control. DLNA technology makes it easy for consumers to share content with friends or associates, even when the PC is in use by somebody else. By simply using the remote control, hard drive storage can be accessed seamlessly, creating the possibility for consumers to view photos, videos and music at the touch of a button.

Multiple connections
Both models feature full 1920x1080p HD resolution panels, providing full support for HD broadcasts and pre-recorded HD content. Toshiba’s Game Mode feature is also included, ensuring gamers do not suffer potential controller response lag by providing a dedicated link between the console and the TV. 1:1 pixel mapping ensures that all content is correctly displayed on screen as intended, without any information loss at the outer edges.

The 4xHDMI inputs within the SV series also feature InstaPort technology, which significantly reduces the delay when an HDMI source is accessed – ensuring content appears on the screen immediately as the HDMI input is selected. Toshiba REGZA-LINK© (HDMI-CEC) technology ensures that REGZA SV series models can be controlled as part of a HDMI-CEC home entertainment system, using just the one remote control.

A dedicated PC Input also allows users to connect to personal computers, and the new SV series is also capable of MP3 audio and DivX video playback via USB. DivX content can also be upscaled using Resolution+, with further support for flash media also extending to SD memory cards, allowing consumers to instantly view JPEG images from a digital camera.

The Toshiba REGZA SV series will be available from September 2009.
