The HDMI connections permit digital video and
audio transmission via a connection cable from a
player/recorder. The digital picture and sound data are
transmitted without data compression and therefore lose
none of their quality. Analogue/digital conversion is no
longer necessary in the connected devices, which also
would result in quality losses.
