Sony designed the DVP-NS90V with compatibility and high image quality as a focus, creating Sony's premier DVD player. The Precision Drive 3 System used by this player isolates the lens from the optical block when correcting image errors, making it faster and more accurate than traditional players restricted to moving the optical block as a whole. Sony has also equipped the DVP-NS90V with Precision Cinema Progressive Technology, separating it from the traditional player field by detecting the image at the pixel level resulting in a more honest image received from the source. Video delivery is through an HDMI connection with 720p/1080i Upscaling.
