HDMI connection
HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality sound by connecting
the TV unit and the equipment.
HDMI-compatible equipment (*1) with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a set-top box or a DVD player, can be connected
to the HDMI connector using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable. •
HDMI is the world’s first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression standard. •
If the external equipment has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI terminal via a DVI to HDMI adapter cable (*2). •
When the DVI to HDMI adapter cable is used, connect the audio cable to the audio input terminal. •
Audio settings can be made on the “HDMI in” menu screen. (p. 12-13)
Applicable audio signal sampling frequencies (L.PCM): 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz
(*1): The HDMI logo is displayed on an HDMI-compliant equipment.
(*2): Enquire at your local digital equipment retailer shop.
