JVC Advanced Technology

Original Real Colour Imaging Technology*1

JVC’s original Real Colour Imaging Technology accurately grasps the colour information for precise reproduction. The technology’s colour reproduction ability has improved. With the adoption of a new colour filter, the DLA-X9000 and DLA-X7000 are now capable of covering the DCI*2 colour space. It is now possible to reproduce colours true to the original for exceptionally beautiful 4K images.

  • *1: DLA-X9000 and DLA-X7000.
  • *2: DCI stands for Digital Cinema Initiatives, a new standard for digital cinema.

Colour Management System with 6-Axis Matrix

A 6-axis matrix of red, green, blue, cyan, magenta, and yellow enables the precise adjustment of hue, saturation, and intensity. Only the colour being adjusted will be shown in colour while the others are grey-toned, making operation more intuitive.


Auto-calibration Function*

Using an optical sensor, precise calibration can be performed in just a few easy steps to match the changes in optical characteristics caused by installation situation of the projector. Auto-Calibration optimises all essential elements found in the image, including colour balance, gamma characteristics, colour space, and colour tracking.

12-point manual gamma adjustment

Manual gamma adjustment, as requested by users, has been added to the calibration software. In addition to a PC-based adjustment that are reflected to the image in real time, adjustments using optical sensor can also be performed. It also features importing and exporting of gamma data.

  • * Exclusive JVC software installed on a PC connected to the projector via a LAN connection and optical sensor are required to set viewing configurations and auto calibration.

Exclusive Software / Commercially Available Optical Sensor

Exclusive JVC software installed on a PC connected to the DLA-X9000, X7000 and X5000 via a LAN connection and optical sensor are required to set viewing configurations and auto calibration.

Storing calibration data

Customised picture data can be transferred from the projector and stored onto a PC. Picture data can also be uploaded from a PC to the projector via the LAN terminal.

  • Note: Input/output of picture data requires dedicated software as well as PC and LAN cable.

Screen Adjustment Modes*

The projector selects the best mode to match the screen being used for images with natural colour balance*. The modes are compatible with the latest models offered by the world's major screen manufacturers.

  • * Refer to JVC website for a comparison of primary screens and adjustment modes.

Pixel Adjust Function

The Pixel Adjust function allows users to precisely correct colour deviation in 1/16-pixel increments*.It is also capable of segmenting the entire screen into 121 points and adjusting them individually to realise clearer video without colour deviation. Two settings can be stored in the memory.


* Simulated picture to demonstrate picture enhancement.


121-point adjustment (concept diagram)

Adjustments are made by placing the cursor on a point that needs to be corrected.

Lens Memory Function

This function stores ten* separate lens adjustments for zoom, shift and focus that can be easily recalled when needed. Memory settings can be switched between each setup via the remote controller.

Memory 2: CinemaScope size
Memory 3: CinemaScope size with subtitles outside of the screen

  • * Ten memories for the DLA-X9000/X7000. Five memories for the DLA-X5000.

JVC's Original Picture Tone Function

The Picture Tone function works to balance gamma, contrast, and brightness settings without affecting the grey scaling of the original source to enable brightness adjustment that better matches the surrounding environment.

Control4 SDDP Compatibility

JVC’s new D-ILA projectors are compatible with Simple Device Discovery Protocol (SDDP) by Control4. When an SDDP-compatible device is added into a Control4 system, it is automatically recognised by the system and automatically adds driver to the projector to enable external control in no time.*

  • * Requires separate home controller and application.

Darkness and lightness correction

Adjustment of grey level, another essential factor for creating high-quality images, can be corrected by separating darkness and lightness levels. By enabling darkness and lightness correction, the desired levels of gradation can be achieved without the tedious gamma correction process of Conventional models.
