• DVI (Digital Visual Interface)
DVI isan interfaceto enable the digital transmission of video signals between various digital devices.
Using DVI, the DVD p_ayertransmits a digital video signal and displays a vivid picture on a TV having
a DVI jack.
• Description of the DVI connection
DVI-D connector : digital signal only.
DVId connector :digital and analog signal.
• Though the p_ayeris using DVI-I connector, the output from a DVI-I is only a digital signal.
• If TV does not support HDCP (High*bandwidth Digital content protect), snow noise appears
on the screen.
• Be carefu{ that various connecters are similar to DVI connector, for example VESA PnD, VESA DFD
and so on.
• Why we adopt DVI?
Generally, with an analog TV, an analog video signal is inputto VIDEO IN.
However, when playinga DVD title the data transmitted to a TV is digital Therefore either a digital-to-
analog converter(in the dvd player)and an analog-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During
this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise end loss of signal
DVI technology requires no D/A conversion and DVI is a pure digital signal from the playerto your TV.
• What is the HDCP ?
HDCP(High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a system for protectingDVD content eutputted via
DVI from being copied. It providesa secure digital Iink between a video source(PC, DVD. etc) and a
display device(TV, projector, etc). Content is encrypted atthe source device to prevent unauthorized
copies from being made.
