Plasma + Good News = Panasonic new displays to be compatible with DivX
March 2, 2009 by Derek
Blu-Ray shouldn’t always get all the spotlight, and Panasonic agrees, as their new line of VIERA plasma displays will be DivX compatible, which should enable a variety of video viewing options. Choice is always a good thing.
It’s assumed these models will be distributed on both sides of the pond, which means these models will work with DLNA and SD/SDHC cards, meaning improved video and audio quality and options.
To be honest, a company investing more time and energy in Plasma technology is welcome news for its lovers, especially with the current exodus taking place with companies regarding Plasma tech these days. Panasonic may end up being the option for Plasma left at some point soon (at least in the US anyway). Pioneer and (it appears likely) LG will be withdrawing from the US Plasma market very soon, so Plasma fanatics should feel free to raise a toast to Panasonic.
