1. HDMI® Inputs (High-Definition
Multimedia Interface)
The HDMI inputs support uncompressed standard and
high-definition digital video formats, bitstream Dolby
Digital 5.1, and PCM digital stereo audio. These inputs
are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection)
compliant.
Mitsubishi recommends you use high-speed HDMI
cables to connect newer source devices incorporating
HDMI technology. High-speed cables bring you the full
benefits of Deep Color and
x.v.Color.
These HDMI inputs can also accept digital DVI video
signals. To connect a device’s DVI output to the TV’s
HDMI input, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable plus
an analog audio. Connect the audio cable to the
DVI/PC
AUDIO INPUT jack on the TV to receive audio from your
DVI device.
Use the HDMI inputs to connect to CEA-861 HDMI com-
pliant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD
player. These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i,
and 1080p video formats.
The TV’s HDMI inputs are compatible with many DVI-D
and HDMI computer video signals.
