When connecting with an HDMI cable, the audio signal will be output as the digital audio signal simultaneously, so you
do not need the analog audio connection described on page 6.
A simple 1-cable connection with a device having an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) connector allows digital transfer both
digital video signals and multi-channel audio signals.

Copyright protection system
To play back the digital video images of a DVD via an HDMI connection, it is necessary that both the player and the display device
(or an AV amplifier) support a copyright protection system called HDCP (high-bandwidth digital content protection system). HDCP
is copy protection technology that comprises data encryption and authentication of the connected AV device.
This unit supports HDCP. Please read the operating instructions of your display device (or AV amplifier) for more information.

Note:
• When using an HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.
• Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; however, this unit cannot
be controlled by another device via the HDMI connector.
• The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency and bit length) may be limited by the device that is
connected.
• Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In connections with device
such as this, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.
• When the set’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI-DVI converter cable,
the signals are output in digital RGB.
