4. DVI Analog Audio

Use these analog stereo audio inputs when using the HDMI input with a device that outputs DVI instead of HDMI, such as DVI output from a DVD player. Unlike HDMI, DVI does not carry audio information on the same cable, thus requiring a separate audio input.

5. AUDIO OUTPUT, RECORD OUTPUT

AUDIO OUTPUT sends analog audio of the program currently shown on the screen to an A/V surround sound receiver or stereo system. Digital audio from digital channels and HDMI devices is converted to analog audio by the TV. If you have an analog rather than digital A/V receiver, this should be the only audio connection between the TV and your analog A/V receiver or stereo system.

RECORD OUTPUT sends analog audio and video to a VCR for recording purposes. Digital video from digital channels is downconverted to analog video. Audio alone is output when a COMPONENT 1 or 2 or HDMI 1 or 2 input is selected for recording.

6. Service Port

This input is for use by Authorized Mitsubishi Servicers only or for authorized software updates.

7. HDMI™ 1 and 2

The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports uncompressed standard and high-definition digital video formats and PCM digital stereo audio format.

Use these inputs to connect to EIA/CEA-861-compliant devices such as high-definition cable boxes, satellite receivers, or DVD players. These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i video formats.

These inputs can also be used as a DVI connection with separate analog audio inputs. An optional HDMI-to-DVI adaptor or cable is necessary to make this connection and may be available from your local electronics retailer. When using the HDMI input to connect a DVI device, use the DVI Analog Audio inputs on your TV to receive left and right stereo audio from the DVI device.

This input is HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) compliant.

8. Digital Audio Output

This output sends Dolby® Digital or PCM digital audio to your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Analog audio from analog channels and devices is converted by the TV to PCM digital audio. If you have a digital A/V receiver, in most cases this should be the only audio connection between the TV and the A/V receiver.
