Connecting a DVD Player or Cable Box/Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) via HDMI
This connection can only be made if there is an HDMI Output connector on the external device.
1. Connect an HDMI Cable
between the HDMI IN
(1, 2 or 3) jack on the
TV and the HDMI jack
on the DVD Player or
Cable Box/Satellite
receiver (Set-Top Box).
What is HDMI?
• HDMI(High-Definition Multimedia Interface), is an interface that enables the
transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable.
• The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size and
has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed.
Each DVD Player or Cable Box/Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) has a different back
panel configuration.
The TV may not output sound and pictures may be displayed with abnormal color when
DVD players/Cable Boxes/Satellite receivers supporting HDMI versions older than 1.3
are connected. When connecting an older HDMI cable and there is no sound, connect
the HDMI cable to the HDMI IN 2 jack and the audio cables to the DVI IN (HDMI2)
[R-AUDIO-L] jacks on the back of the TV. If this happens, contact the company that
provided the DVD player/Cable Box/Satellite receiver to confirm the HDMI version, then
request an upgrade.
HDMI cables that are not 1.3 may cause annoying flicker or no screen display.
