Devices to the HDMI (DVI) connections

The HDMI connections (High Definition Multimedia Interface) allow the
transmission of digital video and audio signals from a player, e.g. DVD
player, DVD recorder, Blu-ray player, game console or 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 menu 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 shows 24p films (see glossary on page 62) which are output
by a player connected via HDMI, e.g. Loewe BluTech Vision, automatically
in the original 24p format.
Film quality improvement (DMM) must be set to on (see page 21).
Digital video signals from a DVI player can be also be reproduced by the
HDMI connection using a DVI/HDMI adapter cable. The sound must be
piped in additionally.
HDMI and DVI both use the same copy protection method HDCP.
