TV with iPod Dock: JVC LCD TV with Built-In iPod Dock

TV playback of iPod video content is more convenient than ever with the new JVC LCD TVs with a built-in iPod dock. Each of the four new models features JVC's new TeleDock, a flip-down iPod dock at the base of the set, providing a direct connection for playback through the TV.

The new JVC P-Series includes the 32-inch (LT-32P679) model with 768p resolution, and the 42-inch (LT-42P789), 47-inch (LT-47P789) and 52-inch (LT-52P789) models with 1080p resolution.

When an iPod is docked, a menu appears on the TV screen for selecting music, music shuffle or video playback. The iPod can be controlled from the TV's remote, which includes a circular keypad with a control scheme that mimics the iPod's control wheel.

Images can be displayed as a slide show along with music. During music playback, song title and artist name are displayed on the TV screen. During video playback, low resolution files, such as internet videos, can be displayed in a small screen mode. Higher resolution video can be shown in nine aspect modes at full screen. There's also the option to play music files while the TV displays television programming. In addition, the iPod will charge while docked whether the TV's power is on or off.
