-The HDMI OUT mini terminal on the camcorder is for output only. Do not connect it to an HDMI output terminal on an external device, as this may damage the camcorder.
-The HDMI connection will recognize automatically the highest resolution supported by the connected HDTV, and output the optimal video signal to ensure the best viewing experience. You can confirm the current specification of the video output by
checking the [HDMI STATUS] menu option ( 48).
-Correct operation cannot be guaranteed when connecting the camcorder to DVI monitors.
-Some HDTVs have their HDCP digital content protection configured so as not to allow the playback of personal content (video recorded for personal uses). If you cannot play back the video recorded with this camcorder on your HDTV using the HDMI connection, try
connecting the camcorder using the component video connection – instead.
-There will be no video output from the AV OUT/ terminal or the COMPONENT OUT terminal while the camcorder is connected to an external device using the optional
terminal.
On a TV: Select as the video input the same terminal to which you connected the camcorder.
On a VCR: Set the input selector to the external video input (usually labeled LINE IN).
