Devices to the HDMI connections
The HDMI connections (High Definition Multimedia Interface) allow
the transmission of digital video and audio signals from a player (e.g.
DVD player, Blu-ray player, game console, camcorder, set-top box)
via a single cable.
The digital video and audio data are transmitted without data compres-
sion digitally and therefore lose none of their quality.
A maximum of five devices can be connected in cascade to every HDMI
socket. The devices are arranged in the AV list and in the station list
below the appropriate HDMI socket. If the respective device sends
its own device name, this appears in place of the connection name.
Your TV set can show optimally 24p movies, which are output from a
connected HDMI player, e.g., Loewe BluTech Vision 3D.
Digital video signals from a DVI player can be also be reproduced by
the HDMI connection using a DVI/HDMI adaptor cable. The sound
must be piped in additionally (see right column).
HDMI and DVI both use the same copy protection method HDCP.
Connecting the device
Switch off all devices before connecting them.
Connect the device by an HDMI cable (Type A, 19-pole) to one of the
HDMI sockets of the TV set.
An HDMI device is connected to the side HDMI socket (e.g. camcorder)
in the same way as shown in the figure.

Connecting an external device via HDMI/DVI adaptor
If your external device, e.g., a PC has an HDMI interface, you can also
connect this via an HDMI socket to your TV set.
If a DVI/HDMI adaptor cable is used, the corresponding sound can be
piped through the AUDIO IN socket of the VGA adaptor
socket on the TV set.
Connecting an external device via HDMI
If your external device has an HDMI interface, the sound signal will
usually be transmitted via the HDMI connection.
If this is not the case, connect the analogue or digital sound as de-
scribed above. Refer to the appropriate operating manual for further
information on the version of the HDMI interface on your external
device, e.g., PC.
Playback from the device
If the device at HDMI supports the Digital Link HD functionality, the
TV set will automatically switch to the corresponding HDMI input after
starting the replay at the HDMI device.
The HDMI input can also be called up manually:
