Analogue Video Connections; Hdmi Connections - Cambridge Audio AZUR 751BD User Manual

The 751BD can output video in both fully digital (HDMI) and analogue
(Composite or Component) formats. If your TV set supports HDMI then
this is the preferred format (see next section).
If your TV set supports only analogue video the preferred connection is (in
declining order of quality) Component and then Composite.
Set the Primary Output option in the setup menu to 'Analog',
see later section.
Note The 751BD will output BD content (including 1080p) as up to 1080i
over the component connections only.

HDMI (High-Definition Multi-Media Interface) is a digital connection that
can carry both audio and video in one cable. Direct digital transfer of
video and support for various types of high definition video content make
this the best connection type for picture quality.
The 751BD supports two HDMI outputs, both are 3D TV compatible. For
normal use with a single TV or TV and AV Receiver use HDMI output 1
(Primary Output) as this benefits from the Marvell QDEO Video processor,
as shown below.
Set the Primary Output option in the setup menu to 'HDMI 1',
see later section.

is limited by CSS encryption on most discs.
The HDCP protected HDMI outputs do not suffer this limitation and offer
full up-conversion of all content.
