Welcome to DPL Laboratories

Jeff BoccaccioJeff BoccaccioHello and thank you for visiting DPL Laboratories.

We created the Digital Performance Level (DPL) Rating System to help people select High Definition Television products based on the quality of the product rather than marketing and branding behind it.

Our goal here at DPL Labs is to remove the smoke and mirrors and allow consumers, retailers and installers to choose a product based on how well it performs technically.

September 2, 2009 by DPL Labs Staff

Regardless of how you feel about it…HDMI™ specification revision 1.4 (Rev. 1.4) is now upon us. And 1.4 adds so much more, with significant new features designed to prepare the industry’s foremost digital signaling solution for the future.

September 2, 2009 by Jeff Boccaccio

 

The amount of confusion and paranoia that HDMI™ Rev 1.4 has stirred up is just amazing. There is a heck of a lot of great features that HDMI Licensing’s new specification is bringing to the table. Top new features include Ethernet capabilities for networking, bi-directional audio transmission, content enhancement for 3D TV, increased resolution supporting 4096 x 2160 (called 4K x 2K), and support for increased color space – specifically for DSLR image playback.

Using CAT5/6 HDMI™ Extenders to “Go Long”

June 3, 2009 by Ted Green

When my two sons throw a football around every fall, it is common for my older son grab the ball tightly and bark “go long” to his younger brother who takes off running to catch a long pass from his big brother. Likewise, installers and integrators often talk about the need to go long with their HDMI™ installations. It is an issue that we at DPL hear about all the time.

HDMI Rev. 1.4 – Stay Out of the F.U.D. Zone

June 3, 2009 by Jeff Boccaccio

Last week’s pre-dawn announcement by HDMI Licensing, LLC of a new specification for the HDMI™ interface – Revision1.4 – reinforces exactly what DPL has been preaching over the course of the last few years by way of articles, presentations and interviews. That message was that DPL Labs was in favor of the creation of a new digital era connectivity solution that would have the ability to aggressively drive an unlimited expansion of technology for Consumer Electronics.
