HighMAT (High-Performance Media Access Technology)
Co-developed by Panasonic and Microsoft, HighMAT was designed to significantly improve interoperability for digital media content between PCs9 and popular electronics devices such as CD players, car stereos and DVD players. HighMAT is a digital-media standard that provides a dramatically improved method of storing, arranging and playing back personal digital photo, music and video collections on recordable discs such as CD-RW media. At this time, our HighMAT-compatible Panasonic products have HighMAT Level 2 functionality which includes compatibility only with audio files and JPEG still image files.

Included Rechargeable Battery
The included rechargeable battery for the DVD-LS5, DVD-LV65, DVD-LA95, and DVD-LX9 neatly fits in the main unit. This allows for the thin, stylish body of our portable DVD players to remain intact when using the battery, which provides about 2.5 hours4 of viewing time after each charge. The DVD-LX9 also allows for the connection of a second optional battery that, when combined with the included battery, provides additional playback time when fully charged.
