What is HDMI?
➣
• HDMI(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 players/Cable Boxes/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/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.
