Toshiba has shown off a new stand-alone HD DVD player at CeBIT in Hannover, Germany. This is the third player that will be available in the European market. The HD-EP10 offers 1080p full HD output, improving upon the HD-E1's performance. The player also features upscaling abilities for DVD-Video, up to 720p, 1080i and 1080p. It is set to retail for about €699.
Included also is support for the lossless audio compressions Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio (but unlike the top-end HD-XE1, there are no analogue 5.1 audio-out connections). "Toshiba’s HD-E1 and HD-XE1 set benchmarks in high definition home entertainment, both in terms of performance and value for money," said Olivier Van Wynendaele, Deputy General Manager, HD DVD, Toshiba Information Systems(UK) Ltd.
He continued: "The HD-EP10 raises the bar yet again. We want consumers to experience the highest HD resolution currently available at a price that's right for the market - and that's exactly what the HD-EP10 achieves."
