HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality
sound by connecting the TV unit and HD devices.
HDMI-compatible equipment (*1) with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a Cable or Satellite box or a
DVD player, can be connected to the HDMI connector using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable.

If the external equipment has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI terminal via a DVI to HDMI adapter
cable (*2).

Audio settings can be made on the "HDMI 1 in" or "HDMI 2 in" menu screen.
