HDMI stands for High-Definition Multimedia Interface.
• HDMI enables you to transmit digital audio and video signals using a single cable.
You can also transmit control signals using HDMI connections (á page 19).
• HDMI enables you to digitally transmit multi-channel sounds in DVD-Audio.
• The [HDMI] indicator stays on while you enjoy sounds and pictures through
HDMI connections.
Connection cable (All cables are sold separately)
• Make connections instructed in “To enjoy high-quality
analogue sounds using DVD-Audio discs (DVD analogue 6-
channel connections)” (á
page 8) and perform DVD analogue
6-channel playback (á page 18) when the DVD recorder or
DVD player you connected is unable to make digital output of
multi-channel sounds in DVD-Audio (e.g. HDMI Ver. 1.0
equipment).
• You can enjoy Home Theater features easily by pressing [ONE
TOUCH PLAY] on this unit’s remote control when you connect the
unit through HDMI to a Panasonic TV (VIERA) or DVD recorder

when you use both HDMI and digital terminals (á pages 6 and
