Connecting an HDMIª or a DVI device to the HDMI input

The HDMI[1] input on your TV receives digital audio and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI device or uncompressed digital video from a DVI[2] device.

This input is designed to accept HDCP[3] program material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861/861BÐ compliant[4] consumer electronic devices (such as a set- top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI output).

[1]HDMI = High-Definition Multimedia Interface.

[2]DVI = Digital Video Interface.

[3]HDCP = High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection.

[4]EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the transmission of uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital content protection, the technology of which is being standardized for reception of high-definition video signals. Because this is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices may not operate properly with the TV.

Connecting your TV

The HDMI input is designed for best performance with 1080i high-definition video signals, but will also accept and display 480i, 480p, and 720p signals.

Note: The HDMI jack is not intended for connection to and should not be used with a personal computer. For PC connection, see page 18.

To connect an HDMI device, you will need:

¥ one HDMI cable (type A connector)

For proper operation, it is recommended that you use a short HDMI cable.

HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate analog audio cables are not required (see illustration below). Some CDVs (Video CDs) may not output digital audio signals, in which case you may be able to hear sound by connecting analog audio cables. However, if you connect analog audio cables with this connection, the HDMI terminal on the TV will not receive the HDMI digital audio signal and you will hear analog audio only.
