Connecting Components with HDMI

About HDMI

Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, DVD players, set- top boxes, and other video components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichannel digital audio, or multichannel PCM).

The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface),*1 so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and displays, resulting in no picture.)

The HTX-22HD uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), so only HDCP-com- patible components will display a picture.

The HTX-22HD’s HDMI interface is based on the following standard:

Repeater System, Deep Color, Lip Sync, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Reso- lution Audio, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, SA-CD and Multichannel PCM

Supported Audio Formats

2-channel linear PCM (16/20/24 bit/32–192 kHz)

Multichannel linear PCM (7.1 ch, 32–192 kHz)

Bitstream (Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High

Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD, DSD)

Your DVD player must be able to output these formats from its HDMI OUT.

About Copyright Protection

The HTX-22HD supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection),*2 a copy-protec- tion system for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the HTX-22HD via HDMI must also support HDCP.

Use a commercially available HDMI cable (supplied with some components) to connect the HTX-22HD’s HDMI OUT to the HDMI input on your TV or projector.

*1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG*3 in 1999.

*2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It’s designed to protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.

*3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Led by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open industry group’s objective is to address the indus- try's requirements for a digital connectivity specification for high-performance PCs and dig- ital displays.
