Features

• HDMI digital interface
The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) interconnect
provides high quality digital audio and video, all from a single user-
friendly connector. HDMI is the first consumer electronics interface
to support uncompressed standard, enhanced, or high-definition
video plus standard to multi-channel surround sound audio, all
using one interface. You can easily connect to a HDMI-equipped AV
receiver or audiovisual device for high quality audio and video, and
communication between the video source and (DTV) players, set-top
boxes, and other audiovisual devices is also supported.

• HDMI Control
By connecting this unit to a Pioneer plasma display or AV system
(amplifier or AV receiver etc.) with an HDMI cable, you can control
this unit from the connected plasma display, as well as have the
connected plasma display or AV system automatically change
inputs in response to this unit starting playback or having the GUI
screen (ex. Disc Navigator) displayed (known as the Auto-select
function). The connected plasma display can thereby have its power
turned from off to on by this function.
You can also have this unit turn on automatically when you control
this unit from a connected plasma display that is turned on
(Simultaneous power function).
Additionally, when the language information from a connected
plasma display is received, you can have this unit’s on-screen
display language change automatically to that of the plasma display
(only when playback is stopped and GUI screen is not displayed).
Refer to your plasma display’s operating manual for more
information regarding how your plasma display transmits language
information.
For more information about which operations can be carried out by
connecting via HDMI cable, refer to the operating manual for your
plasma display or AV system.
