~HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface)

HDMI is an interface that enables the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single connector.

Using HDMI, the Duo HD player transmits a digital video and audio signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV having an HDMI input jack.

~HDMI connection description

HDMI connector - Supports video and digital audio data (LPCM or Bitstream).

-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.

~Why does Samsung use HDMI?

Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal. However, when playing a BD/HD DVD/DVD, the data ransmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the Duo HD player) 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.

~What is the HDCP?

HDCP (High-band width Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting BD/HD DVD/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.
