hat 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.
➢
Each DVD 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 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 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.
