1. Completely insert the connection cord
plugs when connecting to rear panel jacks.
The picture and sound that is played back
will be abnormal if the connection is loose.
2. The HDMI input on HDMI 1 , 2 and FRONT
contains the copy protection system called
High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP). HDCP is a cryptographic system
that encrypts video signals when using
HDMI connections to prevent
copying of video contents.
3. HDMI is not a "NETWORK" technology. It
establishes a one-way point-to-point
connection for delivery of uncompressed
video to a display.
4. The connected digital output device
controls the HDMI interface so proper set-up
of device user settings determines final
video appearance.
5. When using a DVI to HDMI cable, connect the
Audio Out L and R cables at the same INPUT
(1 , 2 or Front) as your HDMI INPUT(1 , 2 or Front).
(For FRONT INPUT see page 15 for reference).
