Amazon.com Product Description

Now you can play your entertainment library on one versatile machine. Since the 23HLV87 has both a DVD player and a 23-inch screen, you won't have to worry about connecting different electronic components in order to watch your favorite program. This convenience is matched only by its smart, stylish design.

The Value of LCD TVs
Aside from their obvious aesthetic value, LCD TVs are much more practical in the home than CRT (tube-style) televisions. They take up a smaller footprint, and thus use up less floor space in the room. Also, LCD TVs are lighter and easier to move around when cleaning or redecorating.

This screen also has a pixel resolution of 1440 x 900 -- which qualifies it to display 720p HDTV images. A built-in comb filter reduces digital artifacts produced by signal noise, making for more detailed images.

Full-Featured DVD Player
The 23HLV87 includes an integrated DVD player compatible with several disc formats: DVD Video, CD-R, CD-RW, VCD and DVD-R. This player is also DivX home theater certified, which means it display popular Internet video formats, such as DivX, AVI, and MPEG4. Similarly, MP3 and WMA-encoded music files recorded to disc will play nicely.

An interesting feature of this player is Digital Picture Zoom, which allows you to select and magnify an area of either freeze-frame or motion video.

Connections
The set has a built-in digital television tuner, so out of the box it can receive digital broadcast ATSC signals and QAM signals used by most digital cable providers. It also has a built-in 181-channel NTSC tuner, so it can also accept traditional analog signals. It is also capable of the following connections:

• HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface): 1
• ColorStream HD component video inputs: 1
• S-video: 1
• RF: 1
• PC input: D-sub 15 with L/R audio
• Digital audio out: 1 optical
• Headphone jack: 1
• RCA video inputs: 2 rear

Audio
The 23HLV87's bottom-mount speakers deliver stereo sound, but for those with a 5.1 surround sound system, the 23HLV87 outputs Dolby Digital and dts digital audio from the DVD player through an optical port. A front headphone jack allows you to watch TV without disturbing those around you--perfect for late-night viewing. Toshiba's StableSound feature maintains television volume within a preset range regardless of the source signal. This is an extremely useful feature when transitioning between a quiet television program and a very loud commercial advertisement or when changing channels.

Great TV with many cool features!        Rating:

The TV/DVD player is everything it said it would be. Great picture and quality. Many auxilary inputs and the DVD player on board free's up a lot of space. Great tv for the bedroom with little space. Would want something bigger for TV viewing in a living room or den. Digital Tuner is slow but effective. The only features it doesnt have are audio out and smart sound volume control. Other than that a great product.

A very nice combo TV/DVD        Rating:

After about four months of use, I like this TV/DVD player and it fits my needs well with the built-in functionality. This is a very flexible device and I use it in my home office (which is also a bedroom), which is my only work location. For a majority of a work day it is used as a 2nd computer monitor, which comes in very handy with the multiple windows I tend to need open. The size of the monitor at 23" eases the stain. After work I use it as a TV or DVD player and find viewing is good from approx. 10 feet or so. My daughter sometimes guests out on weekends and gets a lot of use out of it. I would give it five stars but the remote is sometimes recalcitrant in activating channels or volume changes, detracting from a seamless operation.

easy to operate        Rating:

It almost looks like a monitor. The resolution is not what I expected its not bad but it didnt meet my expectation. It did not come with any cables except the power cord. It is easy to operate.
