Product Shot 2 The changer itself features 1080p upscaling, which upconverts standard DVD information to 1080p high-definition content through HDMI output, as well as Sony BRAVIA Sync; if connected to a BRAVIA HDTV, the TV will take over many of the receiver’s control functions, simplifying set-up and use. Also included is Sony’s DMP digital media management system, and an iPod cradle attachment.
