Connecting using HDMI
If you have an HDMI or DVI-equipped
1
monitor or display 2 , you can connect it to
this recorder using an HDMI cable (not
supplied).
The HDMI connector outputs
uncompressed digital video, as well as
almost every kind of digital audio.
1 Use an HDMI cable to connect the
HDMI OUT connector on this recorder to
an HDMI connector on an HDMI-
compatible display.
• The arrow on the cable connector body
should be face down for correct
alignment with the connector on the
recorder.
When connected to an HDMI component or
HDCP-compatible DVI component, the
HDMI indicator lights.
HDMI setup is generally automatic. There
are however settings you can change if you
need to. See
HDMI Output (only available
when an HDMI device is connected) on
page 133 for more information. Note that the
HDMI settings remain in effect until you
change them, or connect a new HDMI
component.
Important
• An HDMI connection can only be made
with DVI-equipped components
compatible with both DVI and High-
bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP). If you choose to connect to a
DVI connector, you will need a DVI to
HDMI adaptor cable. A DVI to HDCP
connection, however, does not support
audio. Consult your local audio dealer for
more information.
• The HDMI connection is compatible with
32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 96 kHz, 16 bit/
20 bit/24 bit 2-channel linear PCM
signals, as well as Dolby Digital, DTS and
MPEG audio bitstream.
• If your connected component is only
compatible with Linear PCM, the signal
is output as Linear PCM (DTS audio is
not output).
• If you have connected to a Pioneer
plasma display, please select the HDMI
setup on the display (refer to the
supplied manual for more on this).
About HDMI
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia
Interface) supports both video and audio on
a single digital connection for use with DVD
players and recorders, DTV, set-top boxes,
and other AV devices. HDMI was developed
to provide the technologies of High-
bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface
(DVI) in one specification. HDCP is used to
protect digital content transmitted and
received by DVI-compliant displays.
Note
1 Depending on the component you have connected, using a DVI connection may result in unreliable signal
transfers.
2 The pixel resolution of this recorder’s HDMI video output is (according to TV format): NTSC (720 x 480i/p, 1280
x 720p, 1920 x 1080i/p) and PAL (720 x 576i/p, 1280 x 720p, 1920 x 1080i/p). If your display is not compatible with
these resolutions the picture may not be correctly reproduced.
