| Silicon Image Introduces InstaPrevue Technology | | |
September 7, 2011 -- Silicon Image, Inc. today announced its latest innovation, InstaPrevue technology, which will be featured in Silicon Image digital TV (DTV) and audio/ video receiver (AVR) port processors. InstaPrevue provides live picture-in-picture preview of every HDMI input connected to a digital television or A/V receiver. Instead of cycling through inputs or navigating a text-based menu, users can now view and select the live preview window to switch between their Blu-ray Disc players, set-top boxs, DVD players, game consoles, or other HDMI-connected devices.
InstaPrevue technology enables the location, size, and appearance of the preview windows to be controlled by software within the DTV or AVR, allowing the manufacturer to seamlessly integrate a custom implementation of InstaPrevue with the system's remote control and on-screen graphical interface.
"Anyone who has ever accidentally selected the wrong input when changing from their set-top box to their game console will appreciate the simplicity and usefulness of InstaPrevue. It's like a video version of our successful InstaPort technology, which dramatically improves consumers' ability to switch between HDMI inputs by reducing switching time to a single second," said Alex Chervet, Senior Director Of Marketing at Silicon Image, Inc.
