Why does Samsung use HDMI?

Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal. However, when playing a BD/DVD, the data

transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the Blu-ray Home Theater) or an analog-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to your TV.

HDMI connection description

HDMI connector - Supports digital video and audio data.

-HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.

-If your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), random noise appears on the screen.

What is the HDCP?

HDCP (High-band width Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting BD/DVD content outputted via HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) and a display device (TV, projector. etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized copies from being made.

What is Anynet+?

Anynet+ is a convenient function that offers linked operation of this unit through Samsung TVs with the Anynet+ feature.

-If your Samsung TV has an logo, then it supports the Anynet+ function.

-If you turn on the player and insert a disc, the player will start playing the disc, and the TV will turn on automatically and switch to HDMI mode.

-If you turn on the player and press the PLAY button with a disc already inserted, the TV will immediately turn on and switch to HDMI mode.

What is BD Wise?

BD Wise is Samsung's latest inter-connectivity feature.

-When you connect Samsung products with BD-Wise to each other via HDMI, the optimum resolution will be set automatically.

The Anynet+ function is supported only when an HDMI Cable is connected to the HDMI OUT of the Blu-ray Home Theater.
