Video connections

HDMI connection

Example of connectable devices

EDVD player/recorder E Blu-ray player/recorder E Game console

The HDMI connections permit digital video and audio transmission via a connection cable from a player/recorder. The digital picture and sound data are transmitted without data compression and therefore lose none of their quality. Analogue/digital conversion is no longer necessary in the connected devices, which also would result in quality losses.
