The HDMI inputs can also accept digital DVI video signals. To connect a device’s DVI output to the TV’s HDMI input, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable plus an analog audio cable. Connect the analog audio cables to the DVI/PC AUDIO INPUT jacks on the TV to receive audio from your DVI device.

Use the HDMI inputs to connect to CEA-861 HDMI com- pliant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD player. These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p video formats.

The TV’s HDMI inputs are compatible with many DVI-D and HDMI computer video signals.

These inputs are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) compliant.

HDMI Cable Categories

HDMI cables are available as standard and high- speed types.

•High-Speed HDMI Cables. Newer DVD players, video games, and set-top boxes require high-speed cables, suitable for clock frequen- cies up to 340 MHz or data rates of up to 10.2 gigabits per second. Use high-speed cables for high-speed 1080p HD signals carrying extended color encodings (i.e., 30 or more bits, also called Deep Color). High-speed cables are also suit- able for standard HDTV signals.

•Standard HDMI Cables. Standard HDMI cables may be unmarked. They are suitable for standard HDTV 720p, 1080i, and 1080p signals with 8-bit color depth. Use standard HDMI cables for clock frequencies up to 74.25 MHz or data rates of up to 2.23 gigabits per second.
