About HDMI

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports both video and audio on a single digital connection for use with DVD players, DTV, set-top boxes, and other AV devices. HDMI was developed to provide the technologies of High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface (DVI) in one specification. HDCP is used to protect digital content transmitted and received by DVI-compliant or HDMI-compliant displays.

HDMI has the capability to support standard, enhanced, or high-definition video plus standard to multi-channel surround- sound audio. HDMI features included uncompressed digital video, a bandwidth of up to 2.2 gigabytes per second (with HDTV signals), one connector (instead of several cables and connectors), and communication between the AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.

Refer to the owner’s manual of the connected TV as well.

When you connect the DVD player to your TV, be sure to turn off the power and unplug both units from the wall outlet before making any connections.

If you have a HDMI (with HDCP) equipped monitor or display, you can connect it to this player using a HDMI cable.

The HDMI connector outputs uncompressed digital video, as well as almost every kind of digital audio that the player is compatible with, including DVD-Video, Video CD/Super VCD, CD, MP3 and DivX®.

This unit has been designed to be compliant with HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) depending on the component you have connected. Using a HDMI connection may result in unreliable signal transfers.

Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices with an HDMI input may not operate properly with this DVD player.

When using HDMI cable, do not connect to other analogue video outputs.

No sound will be output from the HDMI cable if the digital out is not set to PCM.

HDMI output is only available when the Video Output is set to “HDMI”. Otherwise the HDMI button is invalid.
