HDMI Cable

(to HDMI 1 or 2)

ξIf you have an HDMI-capable receiver that can support HDMI audio, you can simply run an HDMI cable from the player to your receiver and enable HDMI audio on the receiver (see your receiver’s owner’s manual for more information). The receiver usually has an HDMI output that you can connect to your TV to pass the video signal.

ξEither of the HDMI output terminals (HDMI 1 OUT and/or HDMI 2 OUT) on the rear panel of the BDP-103 can be connected to your receiver. Preference should be given to the HDMI 1 output for video since it is the only output to benefit from the superior Marvell QDEO video processor.

NOTE

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a single cable that can transport both audio and video from your player to your display. Be aware, however, that HDMI is an evolving standard, and there may be compatibility issues. A receiver that supports audio input over HDMI is required. Some receivers offer HDMI ports solely for video switching. If your receiver does not have audio input capability, please read the following sections regarding other connection methods.

In order to play multi-channel audio for all formats, the receiver must support HDMI v1.1 or later. For Blu-ray Discs, a receiver that supports HDMI v1.4 with decoding capability for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio is preferred. Please check the specifications of your receiver to ensure that it meets these requirements.

The HDMI outputs on the BDP-103 are HDMI v1.4, which are compatible with HDMI v1.3 and earlier versions.
