■ Why does Samsung use HDMI?
Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal.
However, when playing a DVD, the data
transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either
a digital-to-analog converter (in the HDD & DVD
RECORDER) or an analog-to-digital converter
(in the TV) is required. During this conversion,
the picture quality is degraded due to noise and
signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because
it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital
signal from the HDD & DVD RECORDER to your
TV.
■ What is the HDCP?
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content
outputted via HDMI from being copied.
It provides a secure digital link between a video
source (PC, DVD. etc) and a display device
(TV, projector. etc). Content is encrypted at the
source device to prevent unauthorized copies
from being made.
This allows you to connect your HDD & DVD
RECORDER to other external devices and view or
record their outputs.
