What is HDMI?
• HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is a next-generation interface that enables
the transmission of the digital audio and video signals using a single cable without
compression.
• "Multimedia interface" is a more accurate name for it especially because it allows
multiple channels of digital audio (5.1 channels).
The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size, has
the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and
supports multi-channel digital audio.
