The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI source device, or uncompressed digital video from a DVI (Digital Visual Interface) source device.

This input is designed to accept HDCP (High- Bandwidth Digital-Content Protection) program material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861-D compliant[1] consumer electronic devices (such as a set- top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI output). Supported signal formats: VGA, SVGA, XGA, WXGA, SXGA, 480i (60Hz), 480p (60Hz), 720p (60Hz), 1080i (60Hz), 1080p (24Hz/60Hz). For signal specifications, see p. 86.

Supported Audio format: Linear PCM, sampling rate 32/44.1/48 kHz.

Note:

•To connect a PC to the HDMI input, see p. 22.

•Some legacy HDMI sources may not work properly with your HDMI TV, due to the adoption of new standards. Try the HDMI setting to Off (- p. 45).

[1]EIA/CEA-861-D compliance covers the transmission of uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital content protection, 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.
