What is HDMI?
• HDMI(High-Definition Multimedia
Interface), is an interface that enables the
transmission of digital audio and video
signals using a single cable.
• The difference between HDMI and DVI
is that the HDMI device is smaller in
size and has the HDCP (High Bandwidth
Digital Copy Protection) coding feature
installed.
Connect an HDMI Cable between
the HDMI IN (1, 2 or 3) jack on
the TV and the HDMI jack on the
DVD / Blu-ray Player or Cable
Box / Satellite receiver (Set-Top
Box).
Each DVD / Blu-ray player / Cable Box / Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) has a different back panel configuration.
The TV may not output sound and pictures may be displayed with abnormal color when DVD / Blu-ray player / Cable Box / Satellite
receiver (Set-Top Box) supporting HDMI versions older than 1.3 are connected. When connecting an older HDMI cable and there
is no sound, connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI (DVI) IN 1 jack and the audio cables to the DVI AUDIO IN [R-AUDIO-L] jacks
on the back of the TV. If this happens, contact the company that provided the DVD / Blu-ray player / Cable Box / Satellite receiver
(Set-Top Box) to confirm the HDMI version, then request an upgrade.
HDMI cables that are not 1.3 may cause annoying flicker or no screen display.
