What is a DVI input?

I've seen it in a few HT threads and don't know what it is.
Thanks.

Yes, they do trounce the "low-end" /"mid-level" players. Much depends on how large an image is being displayed. --- AND--- how good the display the player is used with. They will get better as time goes by and

This connection requires a 15 pin cable between two compatible components. I use this feature linking my Theta Carmen-II to my Panasonic plasma monitor. The result is super sharp imaging, amazing clarity and very desirable seperation in color. Add progressive scan into the mix(Standard on the Carmen-II) and your there!
