There are essentially three types of DVD players available in the market: the omnipresent standard DVD player, the High-Definition (HD) DVD player that is perhaps less recognized, and the Blu-Ray Disc player. When the format wars regarding "DVD versus Blu-Ray" began, the comparison was primarily between the HD DVD player and Blu-Ray player. Both are high-capacity players that use their own proprietary HD format, which caused both technologies to be pitted against each other for market supremacy. This format war in actual fact ended in February of 2008 when Toshiba had declared that it would close down the manufacturing of HD DVD player.

The World Of HDMI
The founders of High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) are Hitachi, Philips, Sony, Silicon Image, RCA, Toshiba and Matsushita Electric Industrial who started the development of HDMI
in 2002.
The intention was to develop an AV connector which would be compatible with DVI. They needed to improve on this as the CEA-891-B video standard was in use for HD Televisions at the time. The goal was a smaller connector, which would advance audio and also the consumer electronics control functions, with the use of one remote control.
