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.

➢
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 1(DVI) jack and the audio cables to the DVI AUDIO IN 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.
