A Refined, Slimmer Look
The HD-A35's refined design--with rounded edges, a slim chassis, and a high-gloss black face plate--looks sleek and elegant in your home theater system without taking up too much real estate.

Outstanding Performance
All of Toshiba's HD DVD players support the enhanced features of the HD DVD format, including picture-in-picture video, audio commentary, and Web-enabled network capabilities. With an Ethernet port, the A35 can connect to the Internet for firmware updates to keep the player up to date on new features, and to support the growing number of HD DVD titles with interactive online features and bonus content.

The HD-A35 uses the latest HDMI 1.3 interface to connect to your HD television, providing large bandwidth to eliminate any data bottlenecks and to support new technologies for the utmost in viewing experience. The HD-A35 can output video at 1080p, the highest resolution available, and includes support for 24-frame video, which maintains the native 24-frames-per-second rate of films, thereby delivering an experience more similar to one in theaters. It also supports Deep Color, a new standard that breaks through the 8-bit color depth limitation of existing HD video and allows a wider range of color than ever before.

Of course, the HD-A35 upconverts from other resolutions so all your standard-definition DVDs display in near-HD quality on your HD television. In addition to 1080p, the HD-A35 also outputs at 720p and 1080i if desired.

High-Definition Audio
Audiophiles rejoice! The A35 has HDMI pass-through audio: The audio signal can bypass the HD DVD player's internal audio processor and feed directly into an A/V receiver. The HD-A35 can output 5.1 channel analog audio and, with HDMITM, High Bit Rate Audio (up to 7.1 channels).With a capable receiver, the lossless Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio standards are then decoded externally and audiophiles will be rewarded with the highest fidelity surround sound possible, adding a new dimension of enjoyment to the home theater experience. The HD-A35 also supports other surround sound audio standards including Dolby Digital Plus, DTS 5.1, and DTS HD (core only).

One-Touch Convenience
You can use the CE-Link (HDMI-CEC) to connect the HD-A35 with other CEC-capable devices for unsurpassed simplicity and convenience. For example, if the HD-A35 is connected to a compatible HDTV, you can turn on both the HD DVD player and the TV and start playing a movie with a single touch of a button on the remote.

The HD-A35 is backed by a limited 1-year warranty.

Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A dead format
I bought this back when HD-DVD and Blu-ray were still going head to head. I had a feeling Blu-ray would win out, but the price on HD-DVD was half that of Blu-ray at the time.

For the time I had this HD-DVD player, it served it's purpose. It played high def well. Once Blu-ray became the clear cut winner, I traded in this player to Best Buy and got a little over $100 of trade in dollars and bought a new Sony Blu-ray player. I'm pleased with my new Blu-ray player.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent HD-DVD player and DVD upconverter
Of course, everyone knows the format wars are over. I bought two of these Toshiba HD-DVD players knowing that, thus purchased them for a bargain. Since the universality of Blu-Ray discs is not yet 100%,and there are still tons of standard DVDs out there, I find myself occasionally only able to rent from my local movie store titles that are not on Blu-Ray.

The DVDs that I end playing on my system though look pretty good, as they are upconverted to 1080p. On a medium-sized screen (42" ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Outstanding product
I understand that the format war is over and that HD DVD is "dead" but I that doesn't keep me from loving this machine. I bought it for a great price (under $150) on ebay and I have no regretted it. I also have a PS3 and Toshiba A-2 and I have to say that it is right up there with the both of them and even exceeds them in a few areas. The fact that it can bitstream the HD audio is fantastic and even the PS3 (which I also love) can't do that. It's a great upscaler and it's nice that Toshiba is still ... Read More
