About HDMI
HDMI was developed to provide the technologies of HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection). HDCP is used to protect digital
content transmitted and received.
HDMI has the capability to support standard, enhanced or high-definition video plus standard to multi-channel surround-sound audio,
HDMI features include uncompressed digital video, a bandwidth of up to 5 gigabytes per second, one connector (instead of several
cables and connectors), and communication between the AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.
Notes:
• Both PCM and Bitstream Audio out is available when the sample frequency is set to 48 kHz in HDMI connection.
• If Audio setup is set to bitstream and your TV does not support Bitstream Audio out in HDMI connection, audio sound may not be output-
ted or distorted.
• When the no sound or noisy sound are outputted with HDMI connection, set the Audio option [Dolby Digital, DTS or MPEG] in SETUP menu
to PCM or Off.
• If there is noise or lines on the screen, please check the HDMI cable.
• Not all HDCP-compatible DVI devices will work with this unit.
• If your HDMI TV does not support HDCP, the blue screen appears on the screen.
• If the abnormal picture appears on the TV screen, turn off the unit and then turn the unit on again.
• The unit is able to provide a 1080p full HD image to most 1080p-capable TVs in the market today. However, there are some 1080p TVs avail-
able from certain companies that are limited in the types of 1080p images that can be accepted. Specifically, 1080p-capable TVs that don’t
accept images in 60Hz can’t display an image from this unit.
• If you connect the DVD player's DIGITAL OUT jack to an amplifier or other equipment with a multi-channel decoder, select "Bitstream" to en-
joy Dolby Digital or DTS playback. (See page 17.)
• When the audio output option of DIGITAL OUT is set by the AUDIO setup, it is applied in both HDMI and digital out (Coaxial, Optical).
• When you use HDMI connection, you can change the resolution (576i (480i), 576p (480p), 720p, 1080i, 1080p) for the HDMI output. (See
