HDMI connection
HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) is the world’s first complete digital consumer AV interface complying
with a non-compression standard.
HDMI allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality sound by connecting the TV and the
equipment.
HDMI-compatible equipment
(
1)
with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a DVD player, a set top box or a
game equipment, can be connected to the HDMI terminal using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable.
For information about connections, see “External Equipment” (p. 66 and p. 67).
Applicable HDMI features
Input audio signal : 2ch Linear PCM (sampling frequencies - 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz)
Input video signal : 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p

.
When the DVI to HDMI adapter cable is used, connect the audio cable to the audio input terminal (HDMI1 / 2: use
COMPONENT-AUDIO terminals / HDMI3: use AV3 audio terminals).
Note
Audio settings can be made on the “HDMI1 / 2 / 3 Input” in the Sound Menu. (p. 29)
If the connected equipment has an aspect adjustment function, set the aspect ratio to “16:9”.
These HDMI connectors are “type A”.
These HDMI connectors are compatible with HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection) copyright
protection.
Equipment having no digital output terminal may be connected to the input terminal of either “COMPONENT”,
“S-VIDEO”, or “VIDEO” to receive analogue signals.
This TV incorporates HDMI™ technology.
