Connecting an HDMI™ or a DVI device

To connect an HDMI device, you will need:
• one HDMI cable (type A connector)

For proper operation, it is recommended that you use
as short an HDMI cable as possible. You should not
encounter difficulty if you use an HDMI cable that is
shorter than 16.4 ft (5m).

HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate
analog audio cables are not required (see illustration
below).

You must set the HDMI audio input setting to “HDMI”
in the AUDIO menu (see page 42).

Some CDVs (Video CDs) may not output digital audio
signals. In that case, you may hear sound by connecting
analog audio cables. If you do use analog audio cables for
this reason, you will need to set the HDMI audio input
setting to “DVI” to hear the analog audio (see page 42).
Note: If you connect an HDMI device and analog audio
cables and play media with digital audio output, to hear
digital audio you must set the HDMI audio input setting
to “HDMI” (page 42).

To connect a DVI device, you will need:
• one HDMI–to–DVI adapter cable

(HDMI type A connector)

For proper operation, the length of an HDMI-to-DVI
adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). The
recommended length is 6.6 ft (2m).

• one pair of standard analog audio cables

An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers only video.
Separate analog audio cables are required (see
illustration below).

You must set the HDMI audio input setting to “DVI”
in the AUDIO menu (see page 42).

erly, it is recommended that you follow these proce-
dures:

the TV/DVD first, and then the HDMI or DVI device.

• When turning off your electronic components, turn off

the HDMI or DVI device first, and then the TV/DVD.
