What is HDMI?
• HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is an interface that enables the
transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable.
• The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size and
has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed.
➢
DVI also requires a separate audio connection (see below).
➢
Each DVD/Blu-Ray Player or Cable Box / Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) has a
different back panel configuration.
➢
The TV may not output sound and pictures may be displayed with abnormal color
when DVD/Blu-Ray Player or Cable Box / Satellite receivers supporting HDMI
versions older than 1.3 are connected. When connecting an older HDMI cable and
there is no sound, connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI IN 2 jack and the audio
cables to the DVI IN (HDMI2) [R-AUDIO-L] jacks on the back of the TV. If this
happens, contact the company that provided the DVD/Blu-Ray Player or Cable Box
/ Satellite receiver to confirm the HDMI version, then request an upgrade.
➢
HDMI cables that are not 1.3 may cause annoying flicker or no screen display.
