Hidden features included in a DVD player released in January have the Motion Picture Association of America contemplating legal action. Thanks to Nerdout.com, both users and the MPAA are aware that the Apex AD-600A player's DVD copyright protection scheme and regional encoding features can be overridden. Developed in China by Visual Disc and Digital Video Corp. (VDDV) and sold in the United States by Apex Digital Inc, the Apex player is attracting attention for reasons besides its low price of US$169.95. Progressive scan is a cool feature that makes the picture quality of your DVDs look even better. It replaces the interlaced signal that is usually sent and processes each line in sequence, allowing for less flicker and ultimately an much smoother and clearer signal feed. You will definitely be able to tell the different on HDTVs, and even if your current TV does not support progressive scan playback, you are able to turn it off, allowing you to switch back when and if you upgrade your tele. The holidays have come to an end. It seems like just yesterday thanks were being given, wrapping paper was being torn to pieces and you were nursing that New Year's hangover. Through it all, you've probably snapped dozens, hundreds-maybe thousands-of digital pictures. Now you've got a hard drive full of snapshots, all dressed up with no place to go. Some of your family and friends have dial-up accounts, so you can't send a slew of pictures that way, and you can't expect them all to come to your house to view the pictures. Heck, maybe some of them don't even own a computer. What to do? Why not create a disc that will play in a DVD player, with your images as a slideshow and maybe some nice holiday background music? With a CD burner, you can create a VCD-a CD which will play in most newer DVD players. (Our DVD player is at least four years old, and it plays VCDs). The world's biggest retailer is offering a DVD player that slices out potentially offensive content from movies, such as nudity, violence and foul language. The device, available at Wal-Mart for about $70, merges video-editing technology developed by ClearPlay with an RCA brand DVD player. The DVD player works by cutting scenes or muting parts of the movie, according to guidelines from ClearPlay's staff of editors, said ClearPlay CEO Bill Aho. DVD is ready for the future! Its unique integration of multimedia technologies such as WMV-HD, TrimensionDNM, WM9 support, in addition to its support of advanced audio features including DVD-Audio, HD Audio and a first-class suite of audio technologies to ensure a rich, surround sound audio experience. With new features such as Quick Clip and Smooth Reverse Playback you can take your movie entertainment to the next level of enjoyment - sharing favorite clips with friends or watching a video sequence in reverse. Where's My (Bleeping) Sex? Who wants a DVD player that automatically deletes all the juicy bits of movies? One guess. Companies that will, without anyone asking them to, protect us from media evildoers and exposed flesh and scary exploding things and that part in "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" wherein the universe is blessed, for the briefest of moments, with the joy of Kate Winslet's radiant nipples. The holiday shopping guides were all atwitter over the new DVD formats, Blu-Ray and HD-DVD-competing systems for recording and playing back high-definition movies. Both feature hugely increased pixel counts, more bit-depth and a surfeit of storage. But here's an important question that goes unasked in all the hype: What features won't your next-generation DVD device have?
