Devices to the HDMI connections
The HDMI connections (High Definition Multimedia Interface) allow the
transmission of digital video and audio signals from a player (e.g. DVD
player, DVD recorder, Blu-ray player, game console or Set-Top-Box) via
a single cable.
The digital video and audio data are transmitted without data compres-
sion digitally and therefore lose none of their quality.
A maximum of five devices can be connected in cascade to every HDMI
socket. The devices are arranged in the AV menu and in the station list
below the appropriate HDMI socket. If the respective device sends its own
device name, this appears in place of the connection name.
Your TV set can show 24p films, which are output from a connected
HDMI player (e.g. Loewe BluTech Vision Interactive) optimally (see glos-
sary, page 147).
Digital video signals from a DVI player can be also be reproduced by the
HDMI connection using a DVI/HDMI adapter cable. The sound must be
piped in additionally. However, the sound must then be supplied additionally.
HDMI and DVI both use the same copy protection method HDCP.
Connecting the device
Switch off all equipment before connecting.
Connect the device by an HDMI cable (Type A, 19-pole) to one of the
HDMI sockets of the TV set.
An HDMI device is connected to the side HDMI socket (e.g. camcorder)
in the same way as shown in the figure.
If a DVI/HDMI adapter cable is used, the corresponding sound can be
piped through the AUDIO IN (analogue) or AUDIO DIGITAL IN (digital)
socket on the TV set (see also page 123).
Playback from the device
If the device at HDMI supports the Digital Link HD functionality, the TV set
will automatically switch to the corresponding HDMI input after starting
the replay at the HDMI device.
The HDMI input can also be called up manually:
Call AV selection.
Select HDMI socket.
With Digital Link HD-capable devices the device
name may possibly appear in place of the connection
name.
OK Switch over.
Start playback on the connected HDMI device. The best
possible format for the picture is detected and set auto-
matically.
