About HDMI
HDMI is the first all-digital consumer electronics A/V
interface that supports several uncompressed standards,
enhanced and high definition video formats as well as
existing multi-channel audio format. One jack supports both
video and audio information. The HDMI/HDCP
1
input can
be connected to an EIA/CEA 861
2
compliant consumer
electronic device, such as a set top box or DVD player
equipped with an HDMI or DVI output connection. By
inputting a HDCP high definition picture source to the HDMI
terminal of this Projection Television, high definition
pictures can be displayed on the screen in their digital form.
The HDMI input terminal is not intended to be used with
personal computers. This Projection Television is
compatible with 1080i, 720p, 480p and 480i formats. Select
the output of the connecting device to match that of the
Projection Television.
Notes:
1. HDMI/HDCP = High Definition Multimedia Interface /
High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection.
2. EIA/CEA-861 = Compliance covers profiles for
transmission of uncompressed digital video including
high bandwidth digital content protection.
