HDMI connection description

HDMI connector - Both uncompressed video data and digital audio data (LPCM or Bit Stream data).

-Though the HDD & DVD Recorder uses a HDMI cable (not supplied), the HDD & DVD Recorder outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.

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

Why does Samsung use HDMI?

Analogue TVs require an analogue video/audio signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analogue converter (in the HDD & DVD Recorder) or an analogue-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 HDD & DVD Recorder to your TV.

What is the HDCP?

HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting 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 unauthorised copies from being made.
