devices (such as a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI or
DVI output).
The HDMI input can accept and display VGA, SVGA, XGA,
WXGA, SXGA, 480i (60Hz), 480p (60Hz), 720p (60Hz),
1080i (60Hz), and 1080p (24Hz/60Hz) signal formats. For
detailed signal specifications, see page 79.
Supported Audio format: Linear PCM, sampling rate 32/44.1/
48 kHz
