Connecting an HDMI™ or a DVI device to the HDMI input

Connecting your TV

The HDMI[1] input on your TV receives digital audio and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI device or uncompressed digital video from a DVI[2] device.

This input is designed to accept HDCP[3] program material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861/861B– compliant[4] consumer electronic devices (such as a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI output).

The HDMI input is designed for best performance with 1080i high-definition video signals, but will also accept and display 480i, 480p, and 720p signals.

Note: This TV is not intended for connection to and should not be used with a personal computer.

To connect an HDMI device, you will need:

one HDMI cable (type A connector)

For proper operation, it is recommended that you use a short HDMI cable. You should not encounter difficulty if you use an HDMI cable that is shorter than 16.4ft (5m).

HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate analog audio cables are not required (see illustration below).

Note: you can connect the HDMI cable to either HDMI jacks on the TV (HDMI1 or HDMI2).

You must set the HDMI audio input setting to HDMI in the AUDIO menu (see page 44).

Some CDVs (Video CDs) may not output digital audio signals. In that case, you may hear sound by connecting analog audio cables. If you do use analog audio cables for this reason, you will need to set the HDMI audio input setting to “DVI” to hear the analog audio (see page 44). Note: If you connect an HDMI device and analog audio cables (as described in the previous paragraph), and then you play media with digital audio output, to hear digital audio you must set the HDMI audio input setting to “HDMI” (page 44).
