HDmi connection

example of connectable devices
E DVD E Blu-ray player/recorder
The HDMI connections (High Definition Multimedia
Interface) 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.
HDMI cable
DVi/HDmi conversion
Using an DVI/HDMI adapter cable, the digital video
signals of a DVD can also be played via the compatible
HDMI connection. The sound must be fed in
additionally.
Both HDMI and DVI use the same HDCP copy
protection method.
